	Rugby Union World Cup - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Rugby World Cup was originally thought up in late 1983, when the Australian Rugby Union and the New Zealand Rugby Football Union each independently wrote to the International Rugby Board seeking to conduct a World Cup tournament.
		In 1985 the IRB approved for the inaugural Rugby World Cup to be jointly staged in Australia and New Zealand during May and June of 1987.
		The 2003 Cup was intended to be held jointly by Australia and New Zealand, but disagreements between the International Rugby Board and the NZ Union, over sponsorship, advertising and ticketing, saw the competition relocated to Australia.

		Moving into London on the Heathrow Express and then on the London Underground, both trains are full of fellow rugby fans in their various international shirts and he notices the World Cup sponsors are busy promoting their links to the Event with posters on the train and in the stations.

		This audience - both domestic and international - is made up of parents encouraging their children to take up mini or schools rugby, the children themselves to play the game, teachers to decide to coach rugby, or teenagers or twenty somethings to convert from football or athletics to the game of rugby.

		England and France are the only countries to show an interest in bidding to host the 2007 Cup but are reported to be planning to move it from the fixed date of October-November to June-July.
		O'Neill admitted the later dates were much better for Australia which won the 1999 World Cup in Wales after a solid preparation from the Super 12 series, tours and the Tri-Nations, while the northern unions had little buildup other than training.
		O'Neill said it was time to break the cycle of rotating the World Cup between Britain and France and Australasia with South Africa thrown in between.

		It may be that the team that faces the Wallabies on 12 November stays as settled as their predecessors, but the differences in age and experience between the 2005 and 2001 teams make it unlikely.
		In addition to finding a settled line-up, World Cup winners also tend to have one other factor in their favour - a set style of play that works under pressure.
