The original and the best

Advantages: Fantastic look at the old-style touring mentality
Disadvantages: Some of the filming is amateur due to the players filming themselves

The original of the behind the scenes reviews for rugby, its follow ups have been distinctly poor by comparison. The first tour of the professional era is charted from the initial team bonding sessions in an English hotel all around South Africa on the most mesmerising tour to happen in the past twenty years. Despite being far weaker on paper, the Lions managed to record a 2-1 win in the test series, and some impressive results against the traditional ...
...From the very beginning the players are given the opportunity to film themselves meaning that what the viewer sees is the real life of touring, rather than contrived media speak. From Bentos' reaction in the early hours of the morning on test selection, to the medical room mere seconds after Will Greenwood almost died on the pitch there are many genuine heartwarming moments. The lack of focus on the actual rugby could be viewed as strange, but it ...

The DVD comes in a normal sized DVD box with the exception that it is almost twice as thick, and this is for a very good reason. So as ...
...slip pads to enable all participants to place a bet. A bookies board for the player being Bookie to write up the odds for each race. A good quality dry marker for afore mentioned purpose. And finally the actual DVD. For anyone not familiar with horse racing the horse with the shortest odds is the Favourite ( fav ), the one most expected to win by the bookies. The next most fancied horses rise in price according to their form and the money being ...

Great team, history made in style. Chelsea champions 04/05

Advantages: Beating Barcelona and Jose's classic comments
Disadvantages: Having to watch the 'ghost goal' again

...fun and games being a Chelsea fan at the moment, another manager gone, way behind in the league and not playing great but putting this dvd on brings it all back. If youre a Chelsea fan and feel down in the dumps, whack this on and i guarantee you it will bring your spirits back up! Undisputed league winners, Carling Cup winners, a double over Man Utd and Liverpool, oh and Jose. The man is a legend. Too many records broken to mention but its one of ...
...with JT and Lamps, music sends a shiver down your spine and that commentary for Lamps second at Bolton will stay with you forever. The whole season was an amazing story so the dvd doesnt need to do much to celebrate it but the set up, coverage, commentary and finale are just top drawer. Also listen out for Jason Cundy's scream at Gudjohnsen's miss in the Euro semi! ...
