There is no game on earth quite like rugby: steeped in tradition
and supported with fervour, at its best it is a heady mix of
full-on physical confrontation, crunching tackles, deft handling
skills, searing pace, pin-point kicking and a gentlemanly handshake
at the end of an action-packed 80 minutes. The sport has come a
long way since the apocryphal moment in 1823 when William Webb
Ellis is said to have picked up a ball and run with it on the
playing fields of Rugby School. In 2015, leading up to the eighth
edition of Rugby World Cup, rugby had become one of the most
contested and popular sports on the planet. And, ever since Richie
McCaw lifted the trophy in Auckland in 2011, excitement in England
has been mounting for Rugby World Cup 2015. Well, the wait is
nearly over! World Rugby Records, now in a fully revised and
updated fourth edition, is a unique celebration of rugby
excellence, featuring not only a host of records from teams and
tournaments around the world (in all the game's formats), but also
the stories behind them and a series of concise biographies on some
of the greatest players ever to have played the game.Whether you
are an armchair fan or a Twickenham, Murrayfield, Aviva Stadium or
Millennium Stadium regular, it is essential reading for any fan of
the game.
