Essence of rugby.
This was the first professional Lions tour and it was very much a trail blaser for future tours, partly due to the enormous success of this video. It encapsulates everything that is best about professional rugby union - the passion, the hard sweat, the moments of individual and team genius and of course the banter. It also manages to show the humanity when players were forced withdraw through injury. So much more clinical and physical than the amateur days and even as professional rugby moves on with the likes of Jason Robinson and Iestyn Harris, it will still be the best introduction to rugby for the new fan and an even better coaching manual for the aspiring player.

Review of Living With Lions
This video encapsulates the essence of modern day rugby, see how the game has moved on from the 70's and 80's. Hear the psyching-up of Telfer and McGeechan and see how much the game means to all the players with a great behind the scenes perspective. Revel in the underdog putting one over on the favourites in their own backyard, and the climax, that spectacular drop goal from Guscott. Probably the best rugby video I've ever seen

Spine-Tingling behind-the-scenes look at a truly great tour
This is, simply, the best rugby video ever made. If you have ever wanted to see what happens in the dressing room before a major test match, and to get inside the psyche of international rugby players, then this video is a must. The rhetoric of McGeechan and Telfer makes the hair stand on end. The bravery and commitment of the players is awe-inspiring. This is all, of course, capped by one of the most dramatic and unexpected victories in modern rugby history. You NEED this video!
