Rugby World Cup Greatest Games by Rob Clark

Rugby World Cup Greatest Games by Rob Clark

The Rugby World Cup has only been in existence since 1987, yet already it is established as the sport's premier competition - six weeks of frenzied action which entrances all the rugby-playing nations. The tournament has thrown up countless memorable matches, introduced us to amazing players and witnessed some incredible scores - from Michael Jones scoring the first World Cup try to the legendary All Blacks regaining the trophy in a titanic struggle with France 24 years later. In between we have witnessed two triumphs each for Australia and South Africa, and of course England's sole victory for a Northern Hemisphere side. To date. Relive France's spectacular wins over Australia and New Zealand; Argentina's repeated upsetting of the world order; last-minute drop goals by Joel Stransky and Jonny Wilkinson, and the sheer exuberance of the Pacific Islanders - in a Rugby World Cup history which will appeal to fans of every nation.

Rob Clark is the lead writer and commissioning editor of the official Six Nations Championship Guide. He was the editor of the British & Irish Lions Tour Guide for the Australia tour in 2013 and is co-editor of the World Rugby Yearbook 2015. He has also been involved in writing and editing matchday programmes for the PRO12 and the Barbarians.
