Best of RWC #18 - 2015 Classics

RWC VIII in England was generally entertaining, a welcome change to the previous events hosted in Europe, and as a result there were some absolute belters of games.

I had been half-heartedly watching the delayed coverage of the overnight match between South Africa and Japan. I mean why bother? The Boks were going to win this by the length of the straight. Could stay in bed and catch up on results later.

Best of RWC #16 - 2011 Final

History has a way of repeating itself. New Zealand v France in the Rugby World Cup Final. That was how the inaugural tournament culminated way way back in 1987. Rugby was so simple then. The All Blacks turned up, won most of the time, and did it again the next year.

It was off with a bang in the opening weekend. I still have fond memories of the opening weekend in 1987, but the opening weekend of 2011 was close to its equal

The build-up doesn’t stick in my mind like the screaming agonised panic leading into 2011. Which is a good thing. Sure there was nervousness but also the quiet confidence of the All Black fan.
