Your favourite match

What is the most memorable match for you

This can turn into a nice topic. For me it's easy. Crusaders-Sharks at Twickenham last month. It was huge! I bought tickets, asked a friend to come along, got on the ferry from Hoek van Holland to Harwich, drove all the way to Twickers and we arrived at 9 in the morning, 7 hours before the match.

We took the train to Waterloo Station and toured London for a couple of hours before returning. When we got to the stadium, it was massive. It was not sold out, but still... Seeing the Sharks play so close to home was awesome. We lost 44-28 but it was so much more memorable than for instance England-South Africa in November.

Presume you don't mean in person, as you said the Munster ABs game was yours, so:

England vs Australia 2003

Sale Sharks vs Leicester Tigers 2006

 

[TRF_Cymro]

1973 - Barbarians vs. All Blacks - Cardiff Arms Park. With probably the greatest try of all time scored.

I WAS THERE. The last ten minutes were incredible. When Shane scored on 82 minutes everything just turned to white noise. I hugged two total strangers. It was brilliant.

My favourite has gotta be Blues v Leicester in the 2009 HC Semi Final.



The Wales v Scotland game DuncTheDoodle posted above comes close, as does the Ospreys v Sale in 2006, scoring this try to seal the game:

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Leinster Junior 3rds cup fimal 2011 St.Marys 11 Blackrock 17. Or Fance v All Blacks 1999 Rwc

 

[DorceOutSide]

and belvedere vs st marys in the senior cup final 2008

 

[Groundhog]

another one for me has gotta be Italy vs France this year for the obvious reasons

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Or any game James O'Connor has played in. HE IS THE GREATEST

Do you listen to his music as well?

Fiji defeat Wales 38-34 in the final group B match of the 2007 Rugby World Cup. That win moved Fiji into the knock-out phase at the Welsh's expense with a try from prop Graham Dewes.

In person it would have to be a group match from the Heineken Cup in 2006. Yachvili and Bobo took over the last minutes of a match between Biarritz and Border Reivers with one of the best tries I've ever witnessed. Yachvili kicked to the corner edge following a ruck where an open Bobo caught the ball with one hand for a try. Bobo scored two tries in three minutes to give Biarritz the win 27-17.

This!!!!

....and this



Also, the following match may not be very memorable in itself. It was played on a cold December night in wet, sticky conditions, but for sheer "edge of the seat" stuff, the following piece of action is the most tension packed and dramatic six minutes of rugby I can recall.

 

[Black Heart]

It has to be All Blacks vs Wallabies in Sydney 2000 for me. Jonah scoring that try down the sideline in overtime was sensational.

 

[Sam Owen]

1991 RWC: Australia 9 Samoa 3

1991 RWC: Samoa 16 Wales 13

One of those 2 games is my personal favourite.

 

[skittles]

Can't really pick one; if you really put me on the spot I'd probably pick either the Wellington match or Eales' last game.

1997 Australia v England at Brisbane
1999 World Cup final
1999 World Cup Aus v SA semi
2000 Bledisloe Cup in Sydney
2000 Bledisloe Cup in Wellington
2001 Australia v NZ (Eales' last game)
2001 Australia v Lions 3rd Test
2002 Australia v France in Sydney
2003 World Cup Aus v NZ semi

And any Brumbies Super Rugby final win.
