Obolensky’s try is so deeply embedded in my memory that I feel I must have seen it. Yet it took place at Twickenham on 4 January 1936, 23 months before I was born. The exiled Russian prince actually scored two tries that day in England’s 13-0 victory, the first ever inflicted on the All Blacks on English soil.
