Lomu vs Catt is a the big one on the pitch for me

And Mandela giving the trophy to Piennara is an iconic image

Why is everyone saying "Pienarra"? Instead of "Pienaar"? 😂 Growing up in the 90's even as a bok supporter, Lomu was by far my favorite player, so his rundowns always stand out to me. And for some reason, Johnny Wilkinson's drop goal in '03 is burned into my memory. But top spots always go to the Mandela/Pienaar moment, as well as Kolisi lifting the cup

The 03 drop kick from England to win their first Rugby World Cup and Mandela giving the trophy to Piennara
