2006, year of the Springboks (1)

2006, year of the Springboks (1)
2005 was celebrating the All Blacks, 100 years after their famous tour to Great Britain, France and the US.

2006 will celebrate the Springboks, who toured in Europe the following year.

Even though the Springbols were not as impitoyable as their fellow colonials from New Zealand (24 v, 3 def including a test match against Scotland), some believe this team was possibly more complete and stronger than the 'Original" All Blacks...

I have a couple of prints or cards to illustrate the topic over the next few days...
