EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic print captured by Stuart MacFarlane during the 1995 Rugby World Cup Final, we witness a fierce battle between two legendary scrum halves, Graeme Bachop of New Zealand and Joost van der Westhuizen of South Africa. The intensity etched on their faces is palpable as they engage in an epic clash on the rugby field. The image encapsulates the essence of this historic match held in Johannesburg on June 24th, 1995. It was a momentous occasion as it marked South Africa's return to international sporting events after years of apartheid-induced isolation. Both teams were determined to claim victory and make history. Bachop, representing the All Blacks, showcases his agility and skill while fiercely contesting possession with Van der Westhuizen from the Springboks. Their contrasting playing styles are evident - Bachop's quick thinking and precise passing versus Van der Westhuizen's powerful runs and tenacity. This photograph captures not only a pivotal moment within the game but also represents the spirit of sportsmanship that transcends rivalries. Despite their opposing roles on opposite sides of the field, there is mutual respect between these two exceptional athletes who have dedicated themselves to their craft. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of how sport can unite nations and inspire generations. This print serves as a testament to both players' contributions to rugby history and commemorates an unforgettable chapter in the annals of Rugby World Cup finals.
