Taming the Tourists; How Cardiff Beat the All Blacks, Springboks and Wallabies
Taming the Tourists; How Cardiff Beat the All Blacks, Springboks and Wallabies

Alan Evans
Foreword by Bleddyn Williams

In 1953 Cardiff Rugby Club beat the New Zealand All Blacks 8-3 in a superb display of running rugby and completed a magnificent “full house” following earlier triumphs against the Springboks of South Africa and the Wallabies of Australia—indeed the club went on to win an unprecedented six times in six matches against the Wallabies!
With a foreword by the great Bleddyn Williams, Taming the Tourists tells the full story of the club’s 22 games against the three rugby giants from the southern hemisphere, often through the eyes of many of the famous Cardiff players who have taken part. The book also covers the careers of blue and black legends such as Percy Bush, Billy Cleaver, Cliff Morgan, Jack Matthews, Sid Judd and many others.
Taming the Tourists—a superb tale of how one club beat the greatest international touring sides!
