    Sid was my favourite player growing up and I remember my grandfather telling us stories of coaching Sid in the 72 All Blacks side. Such an amazing rugby family.

    I’m Welsh, and it’s great to see these two gents still on the planet. So sad about their brother. Sid I remember as a young Welsh lad, was the scourge of the British Isles.. he was so dangerous and evenly matched Gareth Edwards. Fantastic scrum half…. Stay cool boys and enjoy yourselves❤️👍👍

    The Going brothers were very special and the All Blacks missed out on something when all 3 were not selected. Look st the Ella brothers for Australia. At least the three of them played together in the Moari team. As a school boy rugby player I won a copy of the book on the Goings. It was signed by Sid. Very special. 🐟

      @@cascade3769 too small and behind a beaten pack wouldn't last a full 80 minutes. Opposition teams use to practice their entire game strategy in trying to stop Sid Going. Even the great Cliff Morgan said after Sid scored his try against Ireland in 1973........ " that is why they say, ....New Zealand is only half a team without Sid Going !" Sid outplayed Gareth Edwards on every occasion apart from one test match. There was no physically tougher half back in the history of the game. Just ask the 1976 Springboks .

      @@cascade3769 Chris Laidlaw became an All Black on the 1963-64 Tour to Britain and France. He was the understudy to Kevin Briscoe and became the number one halfback at the end of tour , playing against France and the Barbarians. Chris then held the number one spot up till the 1970 tour to South Africa. Sid came on to the scene , being selected on the 1967 Tour to Britain and France. Sid was away in Canada on Missionary duties for the Mormon church in 1966. Sid played the centenary test against Australia in 1967 , France in Paris in 1967, the 3rd Test against France in 1968 in Auckland, scoring 2 tries. Played the 2 test against Wales in 1969 and then went on tour to South Africa with Chris Laidlaw. Laidlaw got selected to play in the 1st test ( replaced by Going after being injured) 2nd and 3rd tests. Going played in the 4th test .South Africans couldn't understand why Going wasnt the number one halfback. You will have to ask Ivan Vandonvich why. Sid then was number one from 1971 - 1977.

      @@cascade3769 between the years 1967- 1970 there was always big discussions on who was the better halfback. Fred Allen (Coach of the All Blacks ) feared the French forward pack and played Sid in only his second test because of his unpredictability. It worked a treat and was the main reason the All Blacks came out on top in Paris. The French team that toured NZ in 1968 was a strong all round team. Sid's performance was another example of how he caused major problems to opposition sides . Strong on his feet with exceptional balance. He set up both tries for Bryan Williams in the series against South Africa in 1970 ( while carrying an injury) and when you look at the test against England in 1972 at Twickenham , you see how dominant he was against very strong forward packs. No other half back has been able to demonstrate such dominant performances. I'm from NZ and Smith is a good half back indeed but behind a forward pack going backwards, has no where near the ability Sid had. During 1970- 1977, New Zealand forward packs didn't dominate the opposition like they had during Smith's era. British Rugby was at it's greatest during the 1970's with the 2 great Lions teams 1971 and 1974. Going played a series against South Africa in 1970 and 1976 and the Lions in 1971 and 1977. It was an extremely violent time. Not like we see today.

Still waiting for an AllBlacks backline to bring back the ‘triple scissors’ these brothers created to electrifying effect ♥️💪🏽⚡️

    You always knew when sid got the ball that it was on. He was such a zippy half back. i was a kid ifrom an immigrant family from the Uk iin 69 and my parents loved him. They did not support the Lions or any of the UK sides. They were fully fledged AB supporters. If that isnt a sign you are a committed kiwi then nothing is.....Good memories of sitting there in the early hours watching them or watching an afternoon game in NZ...Loved those days.
