Jonah Lomu scored 15 sensational RWC tries, a record that was recently equalled by Bryan Habana, although he did it in three tournaments, not two. With respect to the Springbok winger, Lomu’s tries were from another planet, as you can see in this great compilation.
You probably forgot that he scored one off the back of a scrum too!
Habana posted a fitting tribute to Lomu earlier in the week, saying the following:
“His on field fearlessness was matched by his off field humility. So sad to wake to the news of @JONAHTALILOMU’s passing. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends. It was a privilege to have met you, to have been inspired by you and to watch you make the biggest impact we have ever seen on the game we love so dearly #GameChanger #GlobalSuperstar #RIPJonahLomu”
