There have been a huge number of memorable moments in the 20-year history of the Rugby World Cup. Think of the last minute drop-goals to beat Australia by Rob Andrew (in 1995), and Johnny Wilkinson (in 2003). Or maybe the finest rugby match ever played, the semi between France and the All Blacks at Twickenham in 1999. Perhaps you might consider the moment that President Nelson Mandela walked onto the Ellis Park turf for the 1995 final wearing a Springbok shirt.
Using interviews and action, The Rugby World Cup Greatest Moments includes all the most memorable action, including the record points tallies, and the breathless finishes. There?s a special bonus for all rugby fans, with extended highlights of some of the very best matches. This DVD is a very special accompaniment to the sport?s top tournament.
Including:
The 2003 World Cup Final
Nelson Mandela visits the Springboks in 1995
France take on New Zealand in 1995
Wales beat Australia in 1987
Ireland play Australia in 1991
Scotland play England in the 1991 semi-final
New Zealand win the first World Cup
There is nothing more exciting in rugby than a well-worked try.
It might come from a flowing move the length of the field. It may be produced by the strength of the forwards, by the brilliance of a back, or by the speed of a winger.
The Rugby World Cup has produced well over a 1000 tries in its 20-year history, and this DVD contains almost 100 of the very best. Each one of rugby?s top nations is featured, and all the best names are included. Think Jonah Lomu, the one-man wrecking ball, demolishing the England defence in 1995. What about David Campese, Australia?s world cup winner, ghosting past Ireland and New Zealand four years previously. There?s Serge Blanco?s famous last minute try putting France into the 1987 final. And there?s John Kirwan?s length-of-the-field treat in the World Cup?s very first game. This DVD is a treat for any fan of the oval ball game.
