PHEW! THAT WAS SOME month and a half of rugby.
The Webb Ellis trophy will again reside south of the equator for the next four years with Australia or New Zealand set to face off in a mouth-watering finale.
It’s been a memorable tournament with ridiculous skill, huge upsets, near misses and controversies. So how did we get here?
Romania won one game out of their four at the tournament but the highlight was this moment
Scrum-half Florin Surugiu got down on one knee and proposed to his girlfriend – and she said yes!
Most of us scribble reminders like ‘milk’ or pay bill’ on ourselves. This Namibia forward kept it simple: Smash
Jamie Cudmore is happy to put his head were most forwards wouldn’t put a boot
But, this time, Canada’s talisman tried to listen in on a French huddle… before being dragged away. Chapaeu.

Madigan’s tears of joy
Before it all went wrong, we had that special Super Sunday
Ireland may have later counted the cost through injury and suspension but the men on the field got the job done in the pool finale against Les Bleus.
And none more so than Ian Madigan who was introduced for a hurt Jonny Sexton. This is how much it meant to him.
Wallabies on fire
Adam Ashley-Cooper scored a hat-trick of tries against Australia in the semi-final. but his pals did all the hard work with some unreal assists. This was the pick of the bunch as far as we were concerned from Drew Mitchell.
Try of the tournament?
So who got the best try of the past six weeks? The All Blacks? Wallabies maybe? Ireland in the pool stages?
Step forward, Canada. This DTH van der Merwe effort against Italy — in which the ran the Azzurri really close — gets the nod from us.
Brave Blossoms set the tone
This tournament will be remembered surely for the performance of the second and third tier sides. Japan set the tone with this incredible victory over South Africa in the first weekend.
