Exceptional win by Yale in that semifinal to come from behind against TCD, and well done on winning the Ladies Plate. I was in the Wits University crew that got the drubbing in the final - we got there by getting past Harvard in the morning semi final by a couple of feet, and a win over Ridley College, Canada the day before, also by about a canvass. I was hoping to find some video of those races, so while it was nice to see our crew in action it wasn't the ideal race to see from my perspective ; ) Any idea if there is some video out there of the Wits University crew v Harvard or Ridley HRR Ladies Plate 1980?

If you find anymore HRR 1980 coverage let me know. There is video of the National Championships when Wits raced as Thames RC on this channel ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-F5MT8JfFbFM.html

@@MostynARC Thanks - yes I did see the National Champs footage when we rowed as Thames RC. I was the stroke of that crew. The commentator mentioned that the Thames crew had quite strong South African accents. That was our last race as a crew - for most of us it was our final year at university and our domestic season was over. In 1981 Wits crashed their truck and boat trailer wiping out just about all their boats and severely injuring a few guys. Four of us from 1980 regrouped a few years later and 3 went to HRR in 1984 - raced as Cantabrigian RC, 2 in the boat that won the Thames Cup (made a lot of people justifiably unhappy ) and myself in a lightweight crew, also Cantabrigian - losing semifinalists to one of the Brit lightweight squads in the Wyfold. Those 3 blokes will be at HRR this year for a small reunion. Thanks for the memories - if I find any other video I will let you know. Please do the same.

@@russellbruton164 If I remember correctly you were coached by Peter Jones in 1980 (my old school coach in the UK). Which is why we (UL) had a practice outing with you in the week before the regatta

@@MostynARC Indeed! Lovely guy and a superb coach. Peter came out to SA as coach of a touring Emanuel School crew in 1976 - my final year at school. Were you part of that, and do you know if Peter is still around - he became a bit of a recluse? He was persuaded to come back to coach by some of the parents of guys in the St Stithian's College set up. Turned St Stithians into the premier rowing school in SA, so when we figured we had a half decent crew at Wits in 1980 we asked him to coach us and tell us if we were good enough to compete at HRR. So we got there with his help. I remember that outing with UL, great experience for us. I'm guessing you were the #6 in the UL boat? Incidentally Imperial College came to SA in 1980, rowed in InterVarsity in Cape Town as well as SA champs (I think). Then we drew them in the second round at HRR and raced against them in the heat at Nottingham. See you at HRR?

@@russellbruton164 Peter is indeed a recluse, but we exchange Christmas cards and we met up at HRR a few years ago (he doesnt normally come). Yes I was in the Emanuel crew in 1976 and at 6 in the 1980 UL crew
