You have to ask?

It starts when Phil Bennett gets the ball immediately in front of his own posts and almost on his own goal line, under extreme pressure from not just one but several All Blacks. Rather than play it safe, he runs it from that position, an amazing jinking run that carries him round several players before he offloads. There is then a series of beautifully-timed passes culminating in Gareth Edward's sprint to the finish. All this from a scratch team (admittedly made up of world-class players) against one of the best teams in the world.

There are plenty of great tries in the first clip, but mostly from a two or three linked moves and often from an attacking position. There have been very few tries scored from such a deep defensive position requiring so much flair and skill from so many players.
