'story of triumph that belongs in another age, another world

Story from the New Zealand Herald about CY Rugby.
Quite an eye opener.
I mean I've heard some of the stories first hand, watched nearly every home game live but this makes for one hell of a journey.

Thanks RW.
It is particularly moving when you've been there from the start.
The start where I knew nearly everybody by name, and then the CY mercenaries of the diaspora ( God bless them) joined forces and like a tsunami swept aside half of Europe in a 6 year demolition derby.
The conquest of Europe ended in November of 2014.
