IT'S NOT quite as globally attractive as the FIFA World Cup or Olympic Games, but the Rugby World Cup is still one of the greatest sporting competitions in existence.

Thanks to Inpho.ie for the images. Look out for our Rugby World Cup special edition of The Irish Post, on the shelves on Wednesday, September 16.
