EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the thrilling world of 1970s rugby. The image captures John Thomas, the formidable Maesteg RFU No 8, as he charges forward on a breakaway run. With determination etched across his face, Thomas showcases his exceptional skill and power that made him a force to be reckoned with on the field. Beside him is scrum half Leighton O'Connor, providing unwavering support on the left. O'Connor's presence is evident in his focused gaze and poised stance, ready to receive the ball or offer an assist when needed. Together, these two players form an unstoppable duo that strikes fear into their opponents' hearts. The match action takes place against Pontypridd on the memorable day of April 22nd, 1977. This particular moment encapsulates everything that makes rugby such a beloved sport - raw athleticism, teamwork, and unyielding passion for victory. As we admire this vintage photograph, we can't help but feel nostalgic for a bygone era when rugby was played with sheer grit and determination rather than commercial interests. It serves as a reminder of how sports can unite communities and inspire generations through their timeless beauty. This stunning print from Western Mail Archive allows us to relive those glory days of rugby history while honoring the incredible talents of John Thomas and Leighton O'Connor who left an indelible mark on Maesteg RFU's legacy.
