@@alasdairduncan3 Even as an Englishman (although living in canada for 30 years now) I turn up the volume and watch that anthem periodically, to refresh myself on what an anthem should sound like.
How could there be anything other than a win after that anthem. Remember watching it and initially before the anthem was nervous then after that great singing said to my ex girlfriend who was English there is no way in hell wales are losing this match now.
Watching all these great Six Nations moments makes me miss Eddie Butler. For someone who didn't have Sky, he was the voice of rugby for me for so long along with Andrew Cotter and Nick Mullins.
I remember the final day of that 2015 six nations like it was yesterday. England vs France was the last game and England needed to beat France by 26 points to win the title which seemed unfathomable before the game. We ended up with one of the most entertaining 6 nations fixtures of all time, England ran riot to score a record 55 points but France threw everything back at them and scored 5 tries of their own, giving Ireland the title.
Some incredible classic clips here! Even as an englishman i love some of those Welsh highlights especially little Shane being an absolute legend. Needless to say the Josh Adams 2021 try was not one of them 😅
I’m English and Shane Williams caused us plenty of problems over the years, but you’ve still just got to appreciate his skills! He was almost unplayable on some days…
Aw you’ll have to do a part 3 with these included: - Stuart hoggs’s 60m try and the Aviva Stadium in 2017 - Stuart Hoggs’ 95m try against Italy in 2012 (that mad intercept) - Richie Gray’s try in 2011 where he dummies I believe Tommy Bowe at the Aviva stadium. - that wales game in 2019 where they absolutely smashed Ireland with that hadleigh park gem of a try at the Principality in the second minute (think it was that year) - Italy’s first game in the 6N - Scotland’s first win at Twickenham in 2021 in 22 years?

He mentionned the 2015 Grand Slam who was awesome but I think the Super Saturday in 2022 was really good as well imo. First Italian win in 7 years, the Irish putting a lot of pressure on the french and France finally winning a title after 12 years of suffering.
@@sammurray9644 on a more serious note, kinda surprised the Ireland vs England match in Croke Park in 2007 wasn't mentionned at all. The Ireland Call, the atmosphere, the context of the match..it had everything imo.
Great video, as always! I'd have put Ireland's first Grand Slam for 61 years in 2009 in there with the last minute drama but great choices nonetheless!
The half where Italy didn't put anyone in the ruck making it tackle only so no offside and England had no idea how to play against it. Fascinating to watch and so surprising it doesn't get used more
Bro why are Rugby players so respectful towards referees? I am a football referee and I was shocked about the incident in this video. Like this is the most dissent a player would show
Because it's basically an instant sin bin if you protest too much, like in football there would be 1v1 goalkeeper vs keeper after about 10 minutes because everyone is in the sun bin

When Wales beet England in 2005 the score was 11 points to 9 to Wales one English man said it was built on sand what a dick he was and wales won the grand slam that year.

That 2013 Welsh anthem has to be the best one ever sung. No fancy music or singer just the crowd and the choir!

Very much looking forward to the anthems this year, feels even more important given the farce in the WC
An Andrew Forde video without that Dugan Van de Merwe try, this is unbelievable!
The number of legends during this 2013 anthem...😊

That Henson tackle is one of my favourites of all time
Bro "sausages" by Genge has me dead💀
That choppy replay of the Fofana try was evidence of him glitching the matrix to get through gaps
More evidence of why Chris Ashton is the worst international tackler ever
It will never be the same without Eddie Butler 😢
Never fails to get the blood pumping! Top work again Mr Forde.
Tait learned a lot - he was majestic in the 2007 RWC final v SA
Brilliant 6 nations compilations, some great memories there👏👏👏👏👌
Best tournament in the world and all the fans come together can't beat it.
Genge's post match being as totally dry and honest as it was is still refreshing to hear
Tears in my eyes hearing the Welsh anthem there! ❤❤
Damn I'm pumped up for the 6 nations now
I’m English and Shane Williams caused us plenty of problems over the years, but you’ve still just got to appreciate his skills! He was almost unplayable on some days…
Imagine if all 3 games on super Saturday were played at the same time. The extra suspense and tension it would have created would have been great
Keith woods try against England in the foot and mouth rescheduled game is iconic stuff…all I’m saying 😂

13. Feeling the pain of Cusiter again, horrible time to be a Scotsman
The best of the micro winger genre that I've ever seen. I couldn't even be annoyed when he scored against my team.

Exactly. What's Welsh for wooden spoon?🤣
