To this day there is no player who brought the excitement Jonah brought to the game.

Tuqiri, Naiyuravarou, Nadolo, Tuilagi, Savea, North, Tuisova -> All giant wingers who walked the path paved by Lomu and yet even to this day no one has compared in terms of what Lomu bought to the game. One of the greatest to ever grace the field, RIP Legend!

That last clip was awesome. Lomu and Cully are arguably the best in their positions the games ever seen

@@jonnybaynham1689 lol came here to comment on it. meanwhile in the NFL josh allen got a 15 yard penalty and an ejection warning for pointing at a defender he ran past yesterday. miss when sports was fun!

What a legend, as 5 year old South african at the time i was so scared of him, as i got older i realised he was the 1st name my mind would come to when i wanted to emulate a pro player while at school.

Thank you All Blacks rugby for bringing even more Jonah Lomu clips to KZread. I could keep coming back to his highlight reels, the man was just awesome.

O.m

I'm a SAFFA and I have to say, Jonah Lomu was, is and has always been my favourite rugby player - *EVER!!* I even named my boat after him!

We truly loved him here in South Africa. The primary reason rugby had to turn professional. Forever in our hearts 💕

Bro i absolutely forgot the fact that Lomu was with the Chiefs in 99...that was an underrated stint too.

the fend master. RIP GOAT #11 🖤

More more more more Ultimate Jonah Highlights video please 😅 His poor quality highlights videos are still top reaction and GOAT views on KZread to this day. His highlights deserve so much more

❤❤🫶🏽 REST IN LOVE LEGEND

Ultimate Rugby Warrior. The Great Jonah Lomu.

Great memory meeting him. He was such a serious scary guy on TV. AB7s spent a week training at our school grounds. Lomu was clowning the team so much and everyone was laughing a lot.

I will never forget Jonah lomu ❤he was a legend they called him the runaway train I never get tired of watching his matches may he rest in peace 😢❤

awesome, thanks for posting these. 4:50, never seen players shake hands or fist bump before scoring before at pro level. thats unreal. wonder if they got told off haha

The Master of Initiating the Contact. He kept his eye's open before during and after the contact. Most people shut their eyes prior to the contact. That's get knocked out territory..

You’ve got to respect any guy that tried to tackle him.

That fist bump to Cullen after re-gathering the ball 😂

Bloody beast.hell of a player rip big Jonah

That Cains back line was legendary

True GOAT and legend of a man and player ❤

I remember as a kid listening to the Murray deaker radio show and it was amazing how many kiwis especially south islanders would bag him.

We want S.A teams back in super rugby!!

I went to the National 7s in Palmerston North with a bunch of mates and heard about this young No 8 who played for the New Zealand Secondary Schools team alongside our favourite "son" Carlos Spencer. Watched his first game for Counties on the back field....OH MY GOD.....ran around....ran over....the kid just DESTROYED everyone and anyone and the legend was born. Damn shame he never scored a Test try against the SpringBoks but sure as hell filled the highlights reel when it came to Super Rugby against the South African teams....Absolute PHENOM....R.I.P Big Jonah Lomu

It's no shame Jonah Lomu never scored against the Springboks. In fact it's the opposite, it's a testament of how much respect the Springbok players and management had for him.

Lomu the run machine ❤

I used to play a rugby video game on Super Nintendo, if you pass to Lomu you could literally score a try from 90 meters every time 😂😂

You just reminded me of Lomu Rugby 95 on ps1, if you went NZ vs Japan and passed it to Lomu, you could run around in circles in the middle of the field, attract the whole Japanese team then fend team all off atleast twice and still get a try 🤣 they really made Lomu a god on those games

There must be so many more great runs and assists in the archives

..The Man ..👌💯♥️

Jonah Lomu was the excitement machine

Not even half of Jonah super highlights

Was very good in his day.

When super rugby was SUPER

Scariest ball-runner in the history of the game, and it's not even close.

Jonah was a true Legend...the only guy who brought that excitement was Julian Savea... Rip Lomu

Few consider what Jonah Lomu could have achieved if he'd been able to play his rugby career as a well man. What he achieved, despite his medical condition, far exceeds what this man is celebrated for.

Like the Mike Tyson of rugby for star power and electric entertainment value

Joubert and Small were scared. Teichman wasn't.

🐐=Lomu

Yer great player. Think ya c how focused he is tho. No accident' thanx

American football was born from Rugby Union. You'all changed and adapted it to suit your American psyche.....awesome game.....just too stop start and Rugby mentality just cannot get over passing or throwing the ball forward. Rugby League was born from Rugby Union also.....the Blue Collar faction decided to pay the players so broke away and changed/adapted the rules to suit. It would be truly AWESOME if the US of A could fully embrace Rugby Union again with all their Professional resources they would be GIANTS of the game.

There is no other like the great Lomu!

Counties

Jonah Loku and Julian savea beasts ❤️🇳🇿

Back when rugby was fun. Big personalities, big hits, no TMO bs, no refs coaching the players. The game's an ugly mess these days.

Yes he’s one of the greatest rugby players, and innate talent to be there at the right time. But when they try and tackle him, he simply ‘steps’ out of them, they seem to catch hs ankles when the best would be at his waist.

I think what was deceptive about Jonah wasn't his size but his pace and stepping ability. In his prime in the 90s he was really good at swerving past defenders at pace, making him really hard to catch. The best tackles on him do seem to get him around the waist as you say - he got shackled fairly well by SA in the 90s that way

Waisting. Time.

Unfortunate he couldn't tackle. We lost the 94 series to France, IN NZ, because of the chip over Lomu and watch him try to 1. Turn and 2. Tackle. No dice. Lovely guy. Great attacking player. Not the best rugby player

That's a lie, Lomu could tackle and apart from that game name another game where Lomu's defense costs the All Blacks the game? Lomu was a kid in 94 the youngest ever, a kid who the previous year was playing number 8 against school kids. Not to mention he wasn't the only player missing tackles against the french in 94.

@@icetroll734 You were specifically talking about the Eden park test. Who was to blame for the previous test? like I mentioned before, he wasn’t the only player missing tackles that game he was however the least experienced so why is he the only one getting singled out? You claimed he couldn’t tackle which is completely false. He wasn’t the best at turning and tackling but like I said before name another game where Lomu’s defence cost the All Blacks the game. Funny how you never hear about Cullens defensive weaknesses only Lomu’s. I've witnessed Lomu make multiple tackles even try saving tackles, it's not an opinion its a fact.
