It being summertime and all, readers of a certain generation would be forgiven for mistaking Willie John McBride’s ‘99’ call during the 1974 tour of South Africa as a summoning of the best players from the four home nations to let their hair down and all gather together to eat some delicious ice-cream before once again focussing the minds on the job at hand.The truth, of course, is that it was far removed that dreamy scenario and that it involved the players involved resorting to the dark arts but Lions Tours against southern hemisphere opposition can be a brutal experience – something to which Ronan O’Gara and Brian O’Driscoll to name two can testify – and sometimes, to quote the famous Munster slogan, you’ve just got to stand up and fight.Beating the Lions in the mid-70s, as it is today, was a huge notch on the belt of the big three in the southern hemisphere and in many cases, the host nation were prepared to whatever they had to do to ensure that the Lions wouldn’t be coming down and beating them on their own patch.Realising that the Springboks were likely to try and intimidate them physically and wouldn’t be averse to stepping over the line dividing what’s acceptable and what’s not, the great Willie John McBride, captain of the 1974 tour, came up with the idea of the ‘99’ call, which basically gave the men in red free rein to engage their opponents in a punch-up if even one of their number was on the receiving end of some ‘treatment’ from their counterparts in green and gold.It was a ‘one-in, all-in’ policy, which meant that the Lions players were either to join in a melee if one started or, failing that, they were to hit the nearest Springbok in sight.The logic behind it, as well as illustrating that the Lions were not to be messed with and wouldn’t be physically intimidated, was that if every single player was involved, the referee would hardly be able to send them all off.
