EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful photo captures the intense rivalry between New Zealand and Australia in a Tri-Nations rugby Test match. Dated 11 August 2001, it showcases the unstoppable force that was Jonah Lomu, one of rugby's greatest legends, as he charges forward with determination. In this particular moment, he faces off against Australia's George Gregan, both players showcasing their exceptional skills and athleticism. However, behind Lomu's awe-inspiring performance lies a hidden battle. According to an AFP report from 01 June 2003, Lomu is fighting a rare chronic kidney condition that has forced him onto renal dialysis treatment. The image takes on new meaning as we witness not only his physical prowess but also his resilience in facing this health challenge. The photograph serves as a reminder of the fragility of human life and the indomitable spirit of athletes like Lomu who refuse to let adversity define them. It symbolizes his unwavering commitment to the sport he loves despite personal setbacks. As doctors search for a kidney donor within three months after this picture was taken, there is hope that Lomu will be able to overcome his medical condition and continue inspiring future generations with his remarkable talent on the rugby field. Captured by Dean Tremi for Agence France-Presse (AFP), this print immortalizes both an iconic sporting moment and an individual's courageous fight against illness.
