In 1992, along with some other rule changes, to try and put greater emphasis on the scoring of tries. To date it would appear to be unsuccessful at the International level and will probably remain so while two penalties outscore one unconverted try.

The Calcutta Cup is a trophy, made from melted down Indian Rupees, donated by old Rugbeians to the RFU. It is awarded to the winner of the annual England vs. Scotland match.
Neither cup is at stake at the World Cup.

"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!" - Rocky Balboa
The trophy was presented to the RFU by the disbanding Calcutta Rugby Club in India.

Sorry Burgs - I think you better go back to the drawing board. You better re-read the question. Australia never played New Zealand in the 1999 RWC
