A quick look at all the tries scored in Rugby World Cup Finals

BY Grant Constable  ·  Tuesday Sep 8, 2015

Yesterday marked eleven days to go until the Rugby World Cup kicks off at Twickenham. While we have to wait a little longer to find out who wins the tournament, here is a look at all the tries ever scored in the final, an understandably low number at just 11 in total.

The most were scored in the first ever final in 1987, while there was just one in 1991 and then two were scored in each of the ’99, 2003 and 2011 finals. There were no tries scored in the 1995 and 2007 finals, both won by South Africa.
