Are the Invincibles the greatest All Blacks team of all time?

[@nepiahemopo1702]

There was a break away team that achieved greatness before the Invincibles.

[@tonylittle3508]

Yes.

[@lawrenceadams1649]

Many, many, many years ago when I was growing up and playing rugby in Australia, We were told as far as the Invincibles went they were larger than life and the two stories i remember being told by our coach from New Zealand, were .At one of the Games a spectator asked 'Who are chaps in Black 'to be told They are the All Blacks and he replied ''More like the All Backs'' and after the Game someone said to one of the players '' You play as though its a matter of Life or Death, and the Player replied ''Its much more important than that '' and as someone once said to me ''Its more than a Game its a way of life

[@keevee09]

The greatest team in history and the spirit behind all subsequent All Blacks teams.

[@AllBlacks]

Trailblazers. Along with the 1905 Originals.

[@nickpointon5138]

Very glad that they are still being remembered. Proud of my great grandad Mark Nicholls. The Daniel Carter of his day.

[@lindseywickert]

It’s incredible to see such kindness and love. Thank you all!

[@MarcDavidReich]

The all blacks are a special team… in the history of sport I can’t think of a team that has had such a perennially excellent team. No matter how “bad” they are, it’s always a matter of perspective… bad just means they lost a few games in a season…. They’re always good, and they’re always as good or better than the rest…

[@MrAhuapai]

They rank amongst the greatest touring side. 71 & 74 Lions and 1937 Springboks

[@reflectingtrees]

Damnn they looked strong.

[@vaughantutty2227]

George Nepia, I'd rate as our best ever . Playing all games on that tour is just mad

[@AllBlacks]

The original sporting GOAT!

[@merlin5420]

Shame he was never allowed to play in the tour of South Africa. The boks would’ve been smoked

[@damiandavey7028]

I will never forget watching George Nepia on this is your life in 1985 he was 80 years old. He made me proud to be Maori as young as I was, I absolutely idolized that man because of the work that he put in to be great. He hurt dirty players and kept them honest on the field. And a tough farmer and awesome Papa off the field. Moe Mai Ra e te Rangatira.

[@bobmoore7481]

The dynasty continues. Gladiators all.

[@TheClunkingFist]

OMG thanks for bringing that to us.

[@johngraham5948]

Growing up through the 50s 60s 70s 80s we all knew the history of the 'Invicibles' the history of All Black rugby was always spoken about through the mainstream media of the day today not so much apart from this Utube clip

[@hwy1983]

Great documentary! Thank you. Wondering which player was ancestor of Codie Taylor? Any other current rugby families once in Invincibles?

[@ronniegrey4445]

Wouldn't it be special to see a modern-day All Black kicking like that.

[@Sentz89]

That's that turn you're just so used to it. I remember Donald had that same turn that won the 2011 WC

[@AllBlacks]

That ball must've been punted for miles!

[@merlin5420]

Peter Jackson needs to make an epic movie of this team! 100 years ago …what a legacy

[@AllBlacks]

Oh, YES! It would need to be a trilogy though, right?

[@ManaBlack208]

Absolutely remarkable 👏 men of steel but also the opposition back then were pretty average at best,kiwi rugby players were light years ahead in those days everyone else has just caught up to us only in the last decade 😮 💪

[@taraishot100]

They caught up to our worse team in history and we are still ranked 3rd and it won’t last I predict the AB’s will get back to their winning ways and the world will fear the black jersey once more

[@ManaBlack208]

[@d34nh177b]

So why didn't Scotland want to play them? Anyone?

[@stevee7556]

Scots thought the All Blacks were being paid to play.

[@merlin5420]

They were terrified!
