LIST: Eight of the GREATEST ever tries

6. Jean-Luc Sadourny – New Zealand v France, Auckland 1994

Jean-Luc Sadourny finishes off a length of the field move – “the try from the end of the world” – to hand France victory over New Zealand


5. Takudzwa Ngwenya – South Africa v USA 2007 Rugby World Cup

Possibly the try of the 2007 World Cup. Zimbabwean born Ngwenya was a sensation in the American Eagles team, and finished a beauty of a try that started almost on his own tryline.

After receiving the ball, he stopped then decided to take on 2007 IRB Player of the year Bryan Habana on the outside, beating the Springbok speedster for pace and precision as he left him for dead.

It was a moment Springbok fans couldn’t believe, and one that rugby fans across the world will savour for a long time.
