The DVD features:
Greatest Tries
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 such as Jonah Lomu demolishing the England defence in 1995 and John Kirwan's length-of-the-field treat in the World Cup's very first game.
Greatest Moments
A combination of interviews and action in The Rugby World Cup Greatest Moments embraces all the most memorable action, including breathless finishes, like the last minute drop-goal by Jonny Wilkinson against Australia in 2003, and the legendary semi-final between France and the All Blacks at Twickenham in 1999. There's also extended highlights of some of the very best matches for hardcore rugby fans.
Greatest Upsets and Near Misses
The Rugby World Cup is a true global celebration of the game. Fans always expect the likes of New Zealand, France and England to do well, but the World Cup wouldn't be the World Cup without the skill and panache of the Pacific Islanders, the strength and commitment of Argentina and Canada, the pace of Japan, the nerve and bravery of outsiders like Zimbabwe, Georgia or Uruguay and the frustration of the French, perhaps the best team never to win the World Cup. This DVD highlights the pluckiest and most courageous moments from these teams.
