EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Colorsport Images, we are transported back to the thrilling Rugby Union match between New Zealand and Scotland in 1979. The image freezes a pivotal moment as Murray Mexted, the legendary All Blacks player, skillfully scores a try against Scotland at Murrayfield Stadium. As the crowd roars with excitement, Mexted's determination and agility shine through his powerful leap towards victory. The composition beautifully showcases the intensity of this historic encounter. With precision timing, Colorsport photographer Colin Elsey captures the exact instant when Alan Lawson, Chris Lambie, and Colin Deans of Scotland find themselves wrong-footed by Mexted's swift movements. Their expressions reveal their astonishment as they desperately attempt to halt his unstoppable advance. This photograph not only immortalizes an iconic sporting achievement but also encapsulates the essence of rugby itself - strength, strategy, and unwavering teamwork. It serves as a testament to both Mexted's individual brilliance and the collective prowess of the All Blacks team during their triumphant tour of England, Scotland, and Italy. As we admire this remarkable piece of sports history frozen in time on our walls or mantelpieces today (not for commercial use), let us celebrate these extraordinary athletes who have left an indelible mark on rugby folklore.
