The Barbarians are the last gasp of what rugby is about at top level. Never let it die.

Excellent video. All tries were great but that Gareth Edwards try is something special.

@@grantpitkethley8638 Yup. I know, but it was not called on the day and was simply awesome. With today’s rules, there was a nice high tackle as well, which were legal those days. Don’t sweat the small stuff, bud. Enjoy life for what is is with it’s ups and downs.

As a kiwi, i love watching and reminiscing about Jonah..............forever missed and loved by ALL rugby fans. BUT.......by far...the best try ever in a rugby game to date is the 1973 Gareth Edwards try against my beloved All Blacks. As a kiwi, we appreciate excellence in rugby, whatever the team be and this is the try for all time. Gareth, you were a legend and a gentleman. RIP and much Aroha (Love and respect to your family & friends) Big Jim (New Zealand).

The only thing "wrong" with that try was the pair of coathangers from the All Blacks. Embarrassing and so glad Edwards got the try.

The fact that it was scored against a great All Blacks side is one of the reasons why it is called 'The Try'.

Pleased to see that Cullen got a Babas try..... not enough made of how far he had to go and how fast to give him so much time to safely collect and dot down.

There's a handful of the 70s tries that I'd never seen before - proper joyous rugby! Thanks for tracking them down and posting them - there's so much pre-professional era rugby that's been forgotten. You'd be doing the world a favour if you could find more and get it the attention it deserves.

Love the last try on the video it proves how skillful the players of old were not just stamping and bludgeoned around the park, slight touches high speed and excellent skill that would fit in any top team of today !

I watched that game on the BBC in '73 and I don't think I've ever seen a better team try than that. It is regularly voted the best try ever.

I like the fact that some people have never some of these “masterpieces”. It is a new joy to some. The Barbarians bring happiness and enjoyment wherever they go.

O Yes what a try Gareth Edwards .LEGEND say no more...........

Watching these magical moments reminds me of what the REAL Beautiful Game is all about. Mesmerising footage from Men playing for the sheer JOY of it.

This is what the world needs to see right now. People coming together from different counties to share the pure love with no indifferences❤❤❤

Lomu was toying with that poor lad

Miss watching Jonah rip

Barbarian rugby is all about the free flowing game. There is no major competitions on the line, no sporting politics just rugby. It doesn’t matter if you lose by fifty points just play the game how it should be played.

I miss the Australian lineup of barbarians. Come back down under bar bars

Joyous. Cheers mun.

just waiting for world 15 vs barbarians, the 1st try has to be among the best in modern era!

That bounce for Cullen had room service with it

Love seeing Lomu and Nadolo in the same frame.

Superb!

Wow.. champagne rugby from the babars.. 🎉..

every good things has an end Yes but here the best is the end (Muppet Show old age )

2001: The Scottish defenders might have thought attempting a tackle on the steam train named Lomu would be futile

'73 try still the best!

You should try playing mate. It's the best sport with the best sportsmen and women in it. Give it a go. You will have a club close by and they will be very welcoming.

leaving the Welsh maestro to the last.

Even when the Baa Baas loose, they win 🤷‍♂️

The pass to garth Edward's was a mile forward..they say it's one of the greatest scores in rugby history..terrible linesman error

You'll never beat THAT try

Barbarian rugby is running rugby, so why don't England adopt this style with Marcus Smith at 10.

Of course the 1973 is the last to be shown because it is the best and will always remain so,not only for how it was scored but the who,s who of rugby at the time

😂😂😂 and humans still watch the same ball 🏈, well banks rip off there life savings with inflation.😂😂😂
