Classic Tries from the 80's & 90's in the French Top 14


We all know the French are great with ball in hand and have produced some of the best running rugby on show for as long as I can remember. This is what makes the Top 14 such a delight to watch.

There’s something special about the running angles and natural flair that almost all of the French backs seem to possess.

It’s with this in mind that I’m posting this great video of ten classic Top 14 tries from the Eighties and Nineties.

Look out for current French coach Mark Lievremont scoring a nice try in his heyday, and of course, the great Phillipe Sella scoring an amazing try to finish off a nice compilation that should bring back some great memories for some of the more

mature

Rugbydump viewers.
