Rugby World Cup trivia - Page 17

Wiki agrees:

The record for most appearances by an individual is also held by a New Zealander, Sean Fitzpatrick with 17 from the 1987 to 1995

BoyBrumby · 23-06-2007, 03:36 PM

Wiki being wrong, wow. Who'da thunk it?

For the record then it's Jason Leonard with 22. Martin Johnson is second with 18 consecutive appearances from 1995-2003, so wiki is waaaaaaaaaaaay off.

OK ,
Here's an easy one ....

Question

How many times has a World Cup Final been won by a drop goal ? Name the Successful scorers on each occasion.

BoyBrumby · 24-06-2007, 03:46 AM

Twice as far as I recall: Joel Stransky for SA in 1995 & Jonny Wilkinson for us in 2003.

Yep, Crowley's the man. Strauss went to league after he missed out on the 95 squad.

Your go.

OK, Who was the Irish flanker who so nearly pinched the 1991 quarter-final from Australia, when he left Campese standing to give Ireland the lead with five minutes remaining?
