Northern Transvaal Rugby - Currie Cup Finals 1987 to 1991

During the 1980's international rugby was a real commodity for South African rugby supporters. The Currie Cup served as the pinnacle of rugby in South Africa and the biggest rivalry was without doubt between Northern Transvaal and Western Province.

Province dominated the Currie Cup in the early 1980's, but the momentum shifted in 1987 when Northerns reclaimed the title against Transvaal at Ellispark. They would play in another four finals and although their success wasn't as great as the Western Province golden era, the rugby on display was still a joy to watch.

Here are some highlights of the five finals Northern Transvaal played in between 1987 and 1991.
