With todays laws at least 3 red cards for high tackles by the All Blacks.

If you're of a certain age, that game, and that try especially, is one of THE great moments in sport. Cliff Morgan's commentary did it justice too. Wonderful all round.

So so many elements came together this January day in Cardiff to make this game of a lifetime so utterly unforgettable and etched in my memory. Cliff Morgans unique, brilliant, summation and appreciation of the epic nature of what we were witnessing . Largely made in Wales, but throw in Mike Gibsons wizardry, Duckhams side stepping dash, Fergus Slattery s contribution is often overlooked. But it was key to the ba bas win. It was an afternoon like no other. And for me the try by JPR at the death even eclipses Gareth Edwards try with it's wave after wave of sustained awesome play.

Rugby was so much better then that it is today. There were more dummies and offloads in that 1 match than what will be in all this years 6 nations matches combined.What an eta for rugby. Strange to see how the haka has changed over the years. Now they try to intimidate and scare their opponents were as then it was a display for the crowd.

I am more naturally a rugby league fan, but this was probably my favourite game ever of either code and I remember watching it on tv as a 15 year old. In the context of the time, has any flank forward ever had a better game than Fergus Slattery that day? The uncapped player Wilkinson seemed to be involved so much too.Also, Mike Gibson ; what a player but you could just go on and on. And that is before even mentioning the great players on the All Blacks side. I could understand the game in those days; I don’t understand it now, and that is my failing, but I would love to go back to those days of watching sport any day.

Wow - what talent on display. Very impressed with how the onus is on keeping the ball alive even if greater risk. It's one of the very few occassions when you can look back 50 years and say the skill level was equivalent and perhaps beyond what it is today. A joy to watch.

Everyone talks about "The Try" and rightly so. It's the greatest moment of rugby and in the top 5 best ever moments in sport. But...this game. I mean all the other tries were so well put together and scored. I still watch the whole game from time to time. It's untouchable rugby. Special mention for David Duckham and J.P.R. Williams. Both immortal.

Agreed the quality of both sides was incredible and they both chose to play exhibition rugby. Used to see JPR W walking to work at St. Thomas’ Hospital.

If one closes one's eyes and recalls JPR in action, in the mind's eye, through the mists of time, it all comes vividly back. The leap, the catch, the sideboards, the seemingly obligatory opposition stiff arm to the head and yet, undaunted and apparently invulnerable, JPR just ploughed on. The side step, the socks rolled down, the inimitable gait, part athlete, part warrior, wholly immortal. RIP and thanks for the memories JPR.

JPR gone today. So sad. I am English but I loved the great Wales side of the late 1960s and early seventies that were the heart of the Lions and the Barbarians in that era. A very sad day for all of us who remember these great players.

Back home in Northern Ireland at the time, I was at Grammar School but also playing for one of the local teams of Limavady RFC. After the morning game we all crowded into the club house to watch the game, we'd lost the game but the pints were flowing. Back then rugby was considered a Protestant game, and Catholics played Gaelic football. I never played it, and that day we were all together in the club house to watch what was a seminal game of rugby enshrined later and for many years as how running rugby should be played - Phil Bennet's side steps, the counterattack with the forwards supporting the backs and Gareth Edwards's sprint for the line. Absolutely brilliant, knocking the wind out of the All Blacks' sails.

Like a fine wine, this game aged well. Too many good men no longer with us. Sadly, Tane Norton left us a week or two ago. He was on that tour and later captained the All Blacks against Phil Bennett’s Lions a few years later. The game doesn’t excite me like it use to but it is great that we can take a trip down memory lane. Kia ora mai i 🇳🇿.

The highlights quite rightly focus on the best rugby ever played by the Barbrians but remember how good this All Blacks side was. several times in this match they cut a backline for the ages apart. I watched this game aged 10 on BBC and even at that callow age I knew that I was watching something very special. I played rugby for 35 years and on the morning of every first match of the season I watched the video of this game. Not because I could ever emulate anything done that day, but to remind me what was possible.
