EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1975, we are transported back to a thrilling moment during the Rugby Union Second Test match between Australia and England. The game took place in Ballymore, Brisbane, and tensions were running high as both teams fought for victory. Amidst the intense competition, a mischievous plan was hatched by the Australian players to outsmart their English opponents. As if straight out of a comedy sketch, several Australian players can be seen pretending to hide the ball up their shirts in an attempt to deceive the referee and gain an advantage. The image captures not only the cleverness but also the camaraderie among these Australian athletes. With cheeky grins on their faces and mischievous glints in their eyes, they playfully engage in this ball-up-the-jumper trick while Englands Roger Uttley looks on with bemusement. This snapshot showcases not just a sporting event but also reveals moments of lightheartedness amidst fierce competition. It reminds us that even in highly competitive environments like sports, there is room for humor and creativity. Colorsport photographer Colin Elsey has masterfully captured this iconic incident that will forever be etched into rugby history. This print serves as a delightful reminder of how sports can bring joy through unexpected moments of wit and ingenuity.
