Orange Free State Rugby - 1970's and 1980's

This week we bring you a collection of some of the best tries scored by Orange Free State during the 1970's and 1980's. These tries were originally part of the series of videos titled 101 Tryline Tales and Tryline Tales 2.
Enjoy and thanks for watching!

This was the type of romantic running Rugby from the amateur era that was fun and entertaining to watch.

Beautiful Rugby..miss these days..

[@contrarian717]

Great video. Great memories. Miss the old jerseys

[@cdk1265]

Nice video... good memories! My dad was Free State and I was Northern Transvaal. So many arguments... in a good way...my dad hate Naas Botha and his drop goals and the ref was always against the Free State no matter who they play! Free State's backline was dangerous though.

[@cliftonboyz1959]

Full of springboks...Eben Jansen, Hennie Becker, Martiens Le Roux, Barry Wolmarans, Helgard Muller, Gypsie Pienaar, Gerry Sonnekus, Jaco Reinach, Vleis Visagie et al

[@itsmeagain8604]

Andre Joubert And Gysie Pienaar on the same field. Gold.

[@dougerrohmer]

I sort of remembered Gysie playing fullback, and wondered how they would solve that? Turns out he was flyhalf...

Toe was dit nog Oranje Vrystaat gewees. Vrystaat het 'n mooi rugby wapen gehad.

Hardloop Rugby is darem maar mooi!

Great Rugby 🏉

[@ShaunvWyngaard]

When the Cheetahs lift the tempo they can beat any team with 50 points.

[@aroo9967]

😂 Aye right

[@bernardsteenhuisen4191]

Yes ..... they r like the French

[@ShaunvWyngaard]

Free State Rugby at its best! They play such an attractive game of rugby. They smashed all the so called "big" South African sides in the Currie Cup last year. They made the Bulls, Lions, Sharks and WP look like amateurs. I hope the Currie Cup will take place this year so that the Free State Cheetahs can humiliate them again.

Always have and always will be the most exciting team to watch in South-Africa

Do you perhaps have highlights of the 1983 Lion Cup Final between OFS and Transvaal played in September of 1983? I remember a memorable try by Freestate Centre Zillen Roos. I would love to see that try again, but so far any searches for that match came up empty handed. Hopefully you can help?

[@RealRugby]

Unfortunately not, sorry Harry

[@rlsuth]

Is that Helgard Muller try at 3:37 not against Northern Transvaal but Transvaal?

[@RealRugby]

Yes, it was against Tvl

[@brettwilkinson9529]

Any footage of 1976 against the All Blacks ?

[@RealRugby]

Yes we do. You can actually find the full third test on KZbin if you search for it :-)
