EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the 1974 British Lions Tour to South Africa, we are transported back in time to witness a historic moment on the rugby field. The image captures two remarkable players, Andy Irvine and Chris Ralston, during the intense final test at Ellis Park, Johannesburg. As they stand side by side, their determination and focus are palpable. Andy Irvine's name is synonymous with excellence in Rugby Union, and his presence here only adds to the significance of this snapshot. With his piercing gaze fixed on the game ahead, he exudes confidence and leadership. Beside him stands Chris Ralston, another formidable force whose commitment to the sport is evident in every muscle of his body. The atmosphere at Ellis Park is electric as these Lions warriors prepare for battle against their South African counterparts. Both teams have fought valiantly throughout this tour, leaving everything on the pitch with each passing match. In a testament to their skill and resilience, both sides find themselves deadlocked at 13-13.
