Incredible match. One of the greatest. Lomu v Dominici, both gone now
one of the greatest games of rugby of all time
Some semi final weekend of rugby in London. Australia v South Africa which went to extra time on the Saturday, then New Zealand v France on Sunday. I was at both of them.
de Beers are on Janie.
