  Sporting Life - Rugby League: World Cup 2000
The idea of a rugby league world championship was first mooted as far back as 1933 by France, who tried repeatedly to get the tournament off the ground before finally succeeding in 1954.
The second tournament was staged, in a league format, in Australia three years later and the host nation claimed the spoils as the only unbeaten team.
The World Cup was held in England for the first time in 1960 and, fittingly, Great Britain won back the crown, only for Australia to regain possession eight years later when they beat France in the final in Sydney.
