Crazy to think Jonah never truly fulfilled his potential due to his kidney condition yet he still managed to dominate games. The thought of a healthy Jonah in late 20s would have been genuinely terrifying
Yep there’s a reason why he was Able to dominate games. That’s the beauty of kidneys, they are able to compensate so well, that you won’t experience any symptoms of kidney disease until you’ve lost at least 90% of your kidney function… That’s why Jonah lived a pretty normal life until after the 2002 wales game when it finally reached the critical threshold where it failed for good.
Seeing Jonah next to Nonu was like seeing a Dad take the field with his young son
Like Andy and Owen Farrell.
@@Ray-wy4kq nothing like them clowns
Really?? That’s a bit much… Lomu was 120kg, and yes Nonu was lighter but he was still 114kg….
Not about weight or size, just how fresh faced Nonu was next to the legend.
Started watching for Carter and Nonu. Stayed for Lomu.
Same... for Rodney So'oialo
When you thought the video was about Nonu and Carter... But actually Lomu was the best parts
Carters defense was always something I enjoyed watching
Carter is good even nonu
Extremely underrated
It’s crazy to think Nonu played along side the legend Jonah Lomu and he’s still playing Rugby today in the MLR.
Crazy how people think Nonu didn't have a distribution game back in his early days.. he was never greedy and had a good/decent pass when it was needed. He was just used more for his bulldozing power runs and agility rather than his passing which he still had.
When people say he didn't have a distribution game they don't mean that he didn't know how to pass mate. That would be absurd. What people mean is that he was certainly not an elite passer. A nine year old should be able to run and pass with a bit of training. Nonu grew his game and became an elite passer, rather than a ... passable passer 😂
@@wwiillll thats what i meant. Obviously anybody playing at that level knows basic passing. But people like compare Nonu on his early days with Laumape in the category of not being strong passers, my meaning was it wasn't a weakness of his, as it was decent to good and became great as he got older and developed the best long passing game i've ever seen from a centre.
What he did was take the skills of a second five eighth in terms of setting up plays. His long passing, miss passes etc. became superb and his kicking was also great
Two absolute legends of the sport! 🇳🇿🇼🇸 😎👏
Nonu, Carter, Lomu = 3 :-)
Yep Jonah and lomu
🇹🇴
Jonah Lomu there will never be another ever RIP USO 💙🙏🏽
2:08 Carter saw Lomu running onto the pitch 😂
This just seems like a better more entertaining era of rugby than today.
it was better because defenses weren't so organised
How Lucky Maa to play with Jonah !!!
Brilliant players....'hated' them when they played the Boks, but true gentleman off the field.
Nonu is my all-time favourite All Black
You could smell the tiko stains on the Canterbury players from here when Lomu took the field! 😂🤣😂
I nearly forgot who this video was about 😂 Jonah 🐐
wish i was there to watch this game
LEGENDS
Legendary commentary
Damn these teams were stacked
When NPC games use to be packed lol
And fair enough - look how stacked the teams were!
Unfortunately NZR only cares about Super Rugby and ABs tests nowadays... no room on the calendar for All Blacks to play for their provinces.
That pill from Canterbury wing 7:28 Wow
Nonu and lomu👌👌
Lomu was like the present and nonu was the future at the time
Huge hit by Lomu, Jesus!
Wellington vs Canterbury. Replay Lomu vs vunibaka, Lomu’s try was one of the best in rugby!
8:06 "Lomu was all over him like a rash", gotta love NZ commentary 😂👌🏽
Never really thought about Lomu's defensive plays because all we saw was his offensive plays. So seeing him make those big hits was somewhat surprising. Didn't know the giant had it in him. Lol
He truly was a wonder to watch! Imagine if he wasn't sick and lived up to his potential 😳
Where can I get the full match
Best centre and fly half in the world💪.
Agreed both were world class but we all know the best players of all time have always been forwards :)
John Drake on the commentary went way too early. A class act.
What about Murray Mexted's morning breath commentary?
Ye ye big men and big hearts. Respect!
Crazy to think that three years from this game Dan Carter would destroy the British Lions.
Dan cater is my favorite player
My favourite part of this was "I hope they put him into space and don't use him as a battering ram"
Then they proceed to use him as a battering ram and john Drake says "Good to see"
Flicky rooty. Genius at times. More than likely to loose a team a semi final or final than any other player alive.
That title lmao
"Dan" the only player with a God mode button, Carter.....
Miss npc 😭
Jonah is a bigger legend than them two put together ,especially Nonu with his girl make-up and his fake scar !
Pfffft. Dan Carter is 3 times the legend then Jonah. Jonah is a legend tho.
YesSiRr!! Machine Gunz!! Lol!! These Blokes were on ANOTHER LeveL!! Best Of the BEST 100%!!
More like Jonah Lomu highlights
Grant Nisbett been around forever
Ps. apparently Lomu can’t tackle …pffft
Back when NPC was worth watching
And now we have two rubbish tournaments:
1. The "Bunnings NPC" which has no All Blacks and is effectively just a tournament for development players
2. Super Rugby, where half the fixtures are predictable drubbings against trash Australian sides
Neither of these competitions provide the quality that the full-strength, NZ-only NPC used to.
Scrap Super Rugby and get the All Blacks back in the provinces I say!
Nonu the best all black in history
Carter yes ma nonu no
I would have said the best 2 Rugby players were Ellery Hanley and Andrew johns
Never heard of them
@@josiah8351 So you have never heard of Ellery Hanley - MBE - the first black player to captain and then manage a UK sports team and who was voted best player in the world or Andrew Johns who was voted Australia's best ever Rugby Player and is an immortal??
@@mrfrisky2997 no and they're not rugby players
@@josiah8351 Think they are - played 100s of Rugby Games for club and Country kid
@@mrfrisky2997 theyre league players a different sport
No hate here gents. But we are rational people. Are these the best players of all time? Carter maybe, and probably. Jono Lomo is one of my favourite players. Not sure if the best. Homie changed the game though. R.I.P
I thought Lomu was one of the greatest
DC without a doubt! But Nonu??? Are you serious? "One of the best of all time??? He doesn't even make the top 10! Shit! He doesn't even make the top 10 best centres of all tiime!
His nickname at Toulon was "Ballon Tomber!" LMAO!!!
The returd at Rugby Pass who penned this needs to get his nose out of whichever Kiwis arse it's currently ensconced!
name 10 better centres
Delusional 😂
Must be from the Northern Hemispher 👀
best 12 ever
I suppose your favourite centre is Isaac Unakok??
Lome Fa’atau was mean back in the day he was underrated for the lions and canes
Back when Nee Zealanders cared about the NPC now that the All Black players aren’t usually playing in the tournament the viewer numbers dropped
