Rugby World Cup 2007

The Rugby World Cup is the premier international rugby union competition in the World. The event is organized by the sport's governing body, the International Rugby Board ("IRB"). The inaugural tournament was held in 1987, hosted by both Australia and New Zealand, and is now contested every four years.

The winners are awarded the Webb Ellis Cup, named after the Rugby School pupil credited with the game's invention.

The title of world champion is currently held by South Africa, who won the 2007 tournament held in France when they beat England in the final. The next Rugby World Cup will be hosted in New Zealand during September and October of 2011.

1 - 27 of 27

	No handicap for Argentina in World Cup final bow 19-Oct-2007 So here we are then. After 46 games, and it is back to square one. France take on Argentina for a second time this Rugby World Cup and despite everything that we have learnt in the past few weeks, the Pumas are once again massive underdogs. more
	Wilkinson to score all England's World Cup final points? 19-Oct-2007 Stan James are facing at least a £1m payout if England win the World Cup thanks to some bright spark suggesting they refund all of their bets taken on the tournament outright market if one of the home nations went on to win. And yet, the World champions are in the World Cup final through a mixture of playing cup rugby, being realistic, and sheer guts. And it is that kind of will, that sheer belief that has hauled England from nothing to something. more
	France too strong in World Cup semi 12-Oct-2007 Both teams come into this fixture with the strange whiff of rugby success adhering to them after their wins over the world's top two rugby teams. And it all looked so bad a few weeks ago. England's 2003 World Cup semi-final rematch with France in Paris is the first time that teams who had lost in the Pool stage have contested a game at this stage of the tournament. more
	Argentina too strong for turgid Scots 07-Oct-2007 Some may see Argentina as the surprise package of this tournament, but they fully merit their success at this World Cup and they should easily account for Scotland. Whether it was nerves, or the heat of the battle, the Scots were turgid against Italy. They failed to score a try and relied far too heavily on points machine Chris Paterson. more
	Fiji to hold their own on the handicap 07-Oct-2007 South Africa have managed to fluke the easiest quarter-final draw. It is this perception, however, that could well see their undoing against Fiji on the handicap markets. more
	France no handicap for All Blacks 06-Oct-2007 Hosts France will be clinging to one memory when they take on New Zealand in Cardiff. It is a memory that will live long in the hearts of all French rugby fans, and one that made a certain Christophe Lamaison a national hero. I am talking of course, about Les Bleus' eye-poppingly brilliant World Cup semi-final defeat of the All Blacks at Twickenham in 1999.  more
	Australia get the drop on holders? 05-Oct-2007 Ah. The old grudge match. England take on Australia in a World Cup for the fifth time, with the scores reading two all. Both sides have beaten each other away from home to win the Webb Ellis Trophy, and yet both are here scrapping in Marseille to get a shot at the world No.1 side in the semis. more
	Irish eyes not smiling 30-Sep-2007 There is something rotten in the state of Ireland. Eddie O'Sullivan has presided over a complete meltdown in his side's fortunes since the Six Nations. They have been awful in all departments in France. more
	Italy value for the scrap 29-Sep-2007 Scotland coach Frank Hadden's took a bold gamble last weekend to rest his players against New Zealand in front of home fans. He made this move so that his players would be fresh ahead of their crunch Pool C encounter with Italy in St Etienne. But could it backfire? more
	Keeping it in the forwards 27-Sep-2007 There is an old saying in rugby circles which states that forwards win the match while the backs decide by how much. It's a neat phrase, but a bit patronising if you have cauliflower ears and stand over 6ft 5in tall. more
	O'Sullivan may pay for mediocrity 25-Sep-2007 Eddie O'Sullivan has been gambled into just 11/4 to be out of his job as Ireland coach by the start of the 2008 Six Nations after one bookmaker saw a lot of money for him after Ireland's limp display against France in the pool stages. more
	All Blacks to pay penalty 23-Sep-2007 This match-up between Scotland and New Zealand in Edinburgh will be the fifth time the two teams have met in a World Cup, and yet, it is the first Pool-stage fixture between the two. more
	England fail to make points 22-Sep-2007 Jules Verne found inspiration for his novels in the city of Nantes, and England coach Brian Ashton could do with a similar bout of stimulation ahead of his team's decisive clash with Samoa in the Loire capital. more
	No handicap for Tonga 22-Sep-2007 Tonga's surprising 19-15 victory over arch-rivals Samoa last weekend was the final piece in the jigsaw puzzle. Everything is clear now, and the Pacific Islanders rate a significant bet in receipt of Victor Chandler's generous 53-point headstart. more
	Ashton to pay for humiliation? 20-Sep-2007 When Andy Robinson was the England rugby coach he oversaw one of the worst periods of results in the national side's history and fans and critics united in their belief it couldn't get any worse. Well it hasn't got any better and as a result the heat is on Brian Ashton and the bookies are looking at who will replace him. more
	Australia united in pursuit of ultimate goal 19-Sep-2007 The Wallabies always seem to hit the ground running at the World Cup and this tournament is no different. They have looked at the top of their game thus far and are still available at 8/1. more
	Wales to suffer at home 15-Sep-2007 Australia have failed to beat Wales on their last two trips to Cardiff, so it is initially surprising to see  go a best-priced 9/2 about the home side in what is effectively a winner-takes-all clash against the Wallabies for the honour of topping Pool B. more
	England in line for a heavy fall against the Boks 13-Sep-2007 If anyone has been living in a cave for the last few days, they would be forgiven for thinking that England had a prayer against South Africa in the Stade de France. But that is not the case, and on Friday night the world should see exactly how far the world champions have fallen since their glorious victory over Australia four years ago. more
	Worsley to show forward might 07-Sep-2007 Former PM Tony Blair used to say that England and the USA have a special relationship. That may be true in the world of politics, but on the rugby pitch the only thing special about the link between the two sides is that England rarely play USA, and when they do, they give them a real hiding. more
	Argentina to run hosts close 07-Sep-2007 In a straight fight, who would you prefer to back? A cockerel in its own pen, or the puma on any ground? If only the first match of the tournament were so easy. more
	Les Bleus to rule their roost? 06-Sep-2007 It is very difficult to get away from the fact that New Zealand are the best side in the world right now. They play a different brand of rugby from any other team, that utilises all 15 men on the pitch, and they have lost precisely the same number of matches that Sir Clive Woodward's England did ahead of the last jamboree in Australia in 2003 – five. more
	Wilko blow to punter 04-Sep-2007 Having placed a bet which could produce the biggest payout of the Rugby World Cup tournament, a William Hill client who staked £2000 on an England v France Final in the hope of a £250,000 payout, was devastated to hear that fly-half Jonny Wilkinson is out injured. more
	All Blacks to put down WC marker 20-Jul-2007 It seems unbelievable in this day and age that a professional sportsman could be injured 'larking around' with his mates but that is exactly what happened to Wallabies full-back Julian Huxley ahead of the Tri-Nations decider and could prove decisive in the match result. more
	Punter pins hopes on All Blacks 15-Jul-2007 Despite a recent defeat in the Tri-Nations to the Wallabies and a habit of peaking too early in World Cup year, New Zealand have attracted a £90,000 bet with Ladbrokes from one punter to win this year's tournament. more
	Ladbrokes punter places £20,000 bet on Barca and All Blacks 28-Mar-2007 A Doncaster-based more
	William Hill have cut England's Rugby World Cup odds from 14/1 to 12/1 11-Mar-2007 have cut England's Rugby World Cup odds from 14/1 to 12/1 after they beat France. more
	Rugby World Cup 2007 draw 30-Nov-2006 The Rubgy World Cup 2007 takes place in September and October. The opening match and the closing match will be in the Stade de France in Paris.   more
