I see a couple of our Fijian boys on both sides and as a Fijian myself Im proud of their contribution to the British Army in both War and sports. Totoka na qito.
100%, my friend. The contribution made by Commonwealth soldiers is immense. Fijians, West Indians, Nepalese to name a few. Compare their contribution to that of non-Brits living here. Was proud to serve with a couple of lads from overseas territories when I served.
As an Irish fan, I never even knew there was a British army v navy rugby competition. Have to say the rugby was top notch and even more exciting than the professional semi finals played this weekend. Very impressive !
@@Avfc-m4w One of the best rugby days at HQ, catching up with old mates, making new ones, great atmosphere and banter, plus some top quality rugby whats not to like?
I just went and looked and realised that I didn't see it. It looked like one of those 1-2 point matches between the All Blacks and Springboks before RWC19.
Absolutely great.Great comeback for the army.A massive congrats to all my brothers (fijian) playing out there.Hopefully they got a chance to don the white jersey.
Epic rugby match, loved every minute their and enjoy every year we go. Should be on main stream media each year!!! Support all our forces personnel past and present and show the respect they deserve👊
Dude.. this whole time!?? Had no idea that we had an Army vs Navy. I watched the Army vs Navy in the NFL last year and thought why didn’t we have it in rugby. Happy to see that it exists
My first watch (TH-cam stream). Never seen so many points in a match come from rolling mauls. I thought it was game over after 20 mins. I’m ex-Army. Felt a bit gutted. But what a game. Navy were always in it. At times it seemed as though the Army had blown it. You never know. Credit to both service sides for a cracking match. 🗡️ ⚓️
Depends. Current laws make mauls a legalized obstruction instrument. Before hand, the "spearhead" of the maul was the ball carrier and was pushed forward by his/her teammates biding on from behind. The maul would have to stop before the ball could be shuttled back, usually to the half back or an acting half, or the ball carrier would break away from the maul with a few binding behind in support, as if indeed rolling away from the original pack in the maul in one direction or the other, left or right.
Amazing game! Quite incredible when you think the British army is the smallest it’s ever been in over 300 years and still produces pure quality!! Cede Nullis 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Story: A US admiral is invited to an army-navy rugby game by his UK counterpart. "Notice how the army wears red shirts so that you cannot see them bleeding. Now, the navy wears blue for the same reason" said the English admiral.
Not quite sure why the ref penalised him to be honest, the tackler didn't release and didn't have hands on the ball, so I don't understand how he was deemed to be holding on so quickly?
Went to the game for the first time in 8 years. Used to go most years. Such a pity the atmosphere has been killed off in the car parks and around the ground! It’s sterile compared to how it used to be! Seems like the fun police have sucked the life out of this event as well 😢
The army and navy should make up the national side, since they’d literally give their life up for their country and look at how good this game was compared to all pro clubs and national side even
Great match. Before kick off note there was an Army band that played. Take note RFU for international matches and have the same for National Anthems like all other countries do in 6 Nations. Some screeching woman freezing to death in a strapless dress is awful.
Well, Fiji was a Crown colony until 1970 when they gained their independence...they even have the Union Jack still in the top left side of their flag so it makes sense that some would want to enlist.
Amazing Matt! going to the temple in 2 weeks after being away to long! 1 week ago the word consecration came into my head, and in my prayer I said to Heavenly Father I consecrated my life to you, that wasn’t me! But it felt so different to what I could remember saying that in the temple! Your video just put it all together for me!!! I have been seeing 11.11 a lot, does that number have any significance to you?

Absolutely agree I’m fully British but I’ve always hd the upmost respect for Fijians that join the British army
100%, my friend. The contribution made by Commonwealth soldiers is immense. Fijians, West Indians, Nepalese to name a few. Compare their contribution to that of non-Brits living here. Was proud to serve with a couple of lads from overseas territories when I served.
Always had mad respect for the Fijians, top class blokes every one I’ve met
Thanks so much to all of you for your service. Fiji always my second team for that!!

Never go the fans only go for the piss up worst day I have ever had. Drunk navy and army nothing like I'm used to with going to Northampton saints.
@user-gd9xf9zs9r i mean what did you expect, come on now😂
@@Avfc-m4w probably one of the best rugby days out. Keep your negativity to yourself

Please find somewhere else to go @@Avfc-m4w
I'm glad I clicked on this tab, this was pure entertainment and the quality of Rugby played was really good
I didn't know this was a thing! Great tradition and awesome to see! From a South African.
Thanks for including the result in the title
Right? Literally the dumbest thing I've ever seen on TH-cam.
I just went and looked and realised that I didn't see it. It looked like one of those 1-2 point matches between the All Blacks and Springboks before RWC19.
The army has the Fijians, they love their rugby
The Army number 8 needs a professional contract.
He has one at Coventry RFC in the Championship
@@GaryBlundell ah thanks for letting me know. He’s so good!!
@@johndoe-xr9jm He certainly is - and we missed him on Friday evening vs London Scottish, and presumably will again at the weekend at Cornish Pirates.
Nah😊
He was awesome
Bulla Vanaka, Great as always, the Flying Fijians, from your Brothers of the RNZIR. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤.
Being An ex Army Veteran i must say both teams deserve to win, this was on of the best Rugby matches i have seen Well Done the ARMY :)
I watched this Live at the Stadium on Saturday, and the crowd was Amazing. Especially right at the end of the game.
The Army Veterans were loving it😂
These are the best highlights I've since the RWC23 knock-outs. Impressive come back by the army.
Absolutely great.Great comeback for the army.A massive congrats to all my brothers (fijian) playing out there.Hopefully they got a chance to don the white jersey.

Never give up attitude, ARMY and NAVY well done next year maybe PROUD OF THE ARMY,when the going gets tough the tough gets going (Respect)
As a kiwi watching this, what a comeback from the Army, never say never, well done congratulations
Fantastic game, glad I could be there. What an atmosphere, what a comeback. Go Army!!!
At first I thought this was Army/Navy in the US. Then I saw there were actually people in the stands and was quickly clued in.
What a game....no matter where players are from it was an amazing match and both sides should take a bow
Vinaka Fiji boys, good performance and good to see new faces hopefully for consideration for the Flying Fijians one day!

And people say they don’t like rolling mauls ? Wow - what a game 👏👏👏👏 credit to both teams from NZ. Great play and effort till the last min. 👏👏👏👏

NZ?? british Army & Royal Navy no NZ involved
It’s only an issue when southern hemisphere teams do it 😉
@@dunxx906 you need to learn how to read, he's saying credit from NZ meaning he's messaging from NZ
Tremendous comeback : that is what to expect from *Army* 💪
Real Sport. Fantastic.
Amazing game! Quite incredible when you think the British army is the smallest it’s ever been in over 300 years and still produces pure quality!! Cede Nullis 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Quel match ! Ils ont clairement un niveau de professionnels.
respect to both teams for the best game army vs navy I have seen well done enjoy your piss up
Great game from the Fijians 💪
Wow all the best northern hemisphere rugby players are in the British forces what a great game!
Congratulations to both sides for a truly magnificent game. Fingers crossed the RAF can do something against the Army in the upcoming game😉
“Hey did you watch the army navy game”
“The army navy game is in the fall what are you talking about”
What a great advert for the game of rugby! No sport like it in the world!
what a fightback - nice one Army :)
This two fijians deserved to be in the flying fijian squad !!💯
Absolutely fantastic match this is why we love rugby!
I was there. What a come back!
Spectacular game! Thought the navy had it in the first half, their come back in the second was impressive but the army lads stood firm
Was it mentioned that the Navy were the Senior Service? I think I missed it.
I'm irish so as you'd expect I hate both the army and the navy in equal measure, but feck me I jumped off my couch wishing the army on.
The cream always rises to the top 😊
Amazing game one of the best I've seen. Well done 👍 to both teams.
All I have is WOW!!!!!!!!
We need army rugby world cup
This game is way much better than how England national team plays .... nice game navy and army ,,,
Great game, great atmosphere. Go Army.
My cousin played for the army. Later on played for Wales.
What an amazing match!!👍🏻
A real game of rugby ..Wow
Why, oh why, oh why must you put the score in the title? That was terrific, just disappointed I knew the result the whole way through.
incredible game of rugby!
Story: A US admiral is invited to an army-navy rugby game by his UK counterpart. "Notice how the army wears red shirts so that you cannot see them bleeding. Now, the navy wears blue for the same reason" said the English admiral.
Go the Squaddies. Great game, the Best of British. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤. From RNZIR.
Awesome match!
great win for the army
Don't put the result in the video title of highlights folks!
THIS WAS A SELL OUT CROWD UNTIL THEY GOT RID OF THE CORPS BARS
British servicemen at their finest.
Fuck me for not turning on the no clickbait title extension
Perhaps next time don’t spoil the result in the description please
Great Game 👍🇬🇧
Great game gentleman
why oh why didn't the Navy guy who intercepted it on 78 mins not just hoof it down the park to play the remaining 2 mins in their 22??
Not quite sure why the ref penalised him to be honest, the tackler didn't release and didn't have hands on the ball, so I don't understand how he was deemed to be holding on so quickly?
Go Army !! Tenacuter !!
Go army!
WHAT.....A.....GAME!
not a fair fight...them marines are tough as nails
Wow these dudes almost play like pros. Do they train a lot?
Those people that left early.....🥴
It's these Fijians bruv...always doing the impossible come crunch time.
How did the navy lose that. Tremendous back play to get that huge early lead
Missing two early easy conversions didn’t help!
Went to the game for the first time in 8 years. Used to go most years. Such a pity the atmosphere has been killed off in the car parks and around the ground! It’s sterile compared to how it used to be! Seems like the fun police have sucked the life out of this event as well 😢
Why give the score away before the video?
This, kinda spoiled it to be honest
@@AndyNicholson Exactly. ‘Do you want to see the new Tom Cruise movie? He dies in the end mind’ Would you do that?
🤣 the Golden rivets thought they had won this in the first half
The army and navy should make up the national side, since they’d literally give their life up for their country and look at how good this game was compared to all pro clubs and national side even
Navy thought they were gonna go all the way! Up the Army 🟥⬜️
The last pen was nonsense, he was never on the ball😂 good game though.👍
Navy took quick 1st half chances & stepped off the peddle. What happened in last 60 secs was criminal to a previous decent defence.
Fiji 🇫🇯 win!
Said the same. Congratulations British Fijian national team. 😂😂😂
@@JaneGalvin😂😂😂😂😂
32,000 navy and 80,000 army to chose from. Plus all the Fijians playing in the army. No wonder the Navy never win.
Ref was very kind to the navy.
Sour much 😂😂😂😂😂😂
The navy won last year you muppet 😂
There's a lot of Fijian in the Navy too, guess you just need to look at your selection
The navy won last year....bellend much?
What was the score for the women's game?
It was around 78 - 5 for the army
Who gives af
I don't see the penalty that set up the final try by Army. It was a rather quick whistle after the tackle was made on the Navy ball carrier.
Why would bro spoilt the result w the title
men in red come from behind again.... great game!
Went to school with Jared Hayler
Seriously, did you have to give the result away in the title?
Pity the title of the video is a spoiler. Why did they think that was a good idea?
Sail on lads 😂
Why would you ruin the result in the title?!?!?
Why spoil it like that
Great match. Before kick off note there was an Army band that played. Take note RFU for international matches and have the same for National Anthems like all other countries do in 6 Nations. Some screeching woman freezing to death in a strapless dress is awful.
Yup, the sound of the brass horns will always warm my heart
It was a great game. I did a short 8 minute vlog, from a spectators point of view if anyone is interested.
Didn't go this year. Thoughts on the removal of regimental bars?
🇫🇯🔥
Are these Fijians in the army? Like actually fight for UK in a battle army?
British army has a massive amount of Fijians in the infantry & corps regiments
Well, Fiji was a Crown colony until 1970 when they gained their independence...they even have the Union Jack still in the top left side of their flag so it makes sense that some would want to enlist.
Nice celebration from the new Navy Hooker. Good lad
How did the Navy lose this!
why would you put a frikken spoiler in the title???? FFS
Thanks for ruining the suspense of the game in the title!! 👏👏
Amazing Matt! going to the temple in 2 weeks after being away to long! 1 week ago the word consecration came into my head, and in my prayer I said to Heavenly Father I consecrated my life to you, that wasn’t me! But it felt so different to what I could remember saying that in the temple! Your video just put it all together for me!!! I have been seeing 11.11 a lot, does that number have any significance to you?
