  This is a detailed look at the Rugby Union World Cup. Covering all participating countries, the text focuses on Australia's 1999 triumph, profiling all the Australian stars, including: Matthew Burke; Wendell Sailor; George Gregan; Matt Rogers; and Ben Tune as well as those from other countries. From its modest beginning, with 16 countries initially playing in 1987, each subsequent Rugby World Cup has been a great success - the world's third most popular sporting event after the Olympic Games and the FIFA World Cup. This book offers all the essential facts and figures, as well as comments from past greats.
