The Rugby Club Plays of the Week - RWC Week 1
Plays of the Week from the Rugby Club is back with a RWC edition for the first round of the tournament. We're treated to the rhythmic movements of Jonah Lomu at the opening ceremony, some great tries, and of course, some of the biggest hits and funny moments.
Going back a bit, the opening ceremomy was a spectacular affair that included an appearance from New Zealand legend, Jonah Lomu. The great man has many talents, some of which include bodybuilding and even boxing. But dancing? Probably not. Sean Maloney included a clip for you to have a look.
Scot Chris Paterson's conversion attempt against Romania was one of the funnier moments of the first round, as was the streaker in the England and Argentina game. We actually posted a longer version (of the video) on the Facebook page during the week, so be sure to follow RD there too for random bits.

Poor old Chris Paterson, i know from experience how he feels - just as you strike the ball, you look up at the posts (not at the ball which starts tipping) and "oh ****"!
The wind blowing the ball off the tee is definitely one to forget! A bucket load of kicks were missed that weekend lol.
And Todd Clever is a beast! The USA have more than one star player that's for sure. A lot of great stuff from the smaller nations too.
Lets hear it for the minnows!
Cheers RD

mostly because he let Dan Parks take anything over about 30 meters out or near the touchline though...

Nice vid as always, the plays team do a good job. Lay off the Big Man though! :)

(wikipedia says it so it MUST be true.)
And at least Steyn took all of them, rather then giving away the ones he thought he'd miss....
