New Zealand at the Rugby World Cup
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The All Blacks, New Zealand's national rugby union team, have played a total of 43 matches in the seven Rugby World Cup tournaments from 1987 to 2011. New Zealand won the 1987 and 2011 tournaments, both of which they hosted. They are the only team never to have lost a pool game and to have always qualified in first place from every group. Their worst performance was in 2007, when they lost a quarter-final to France; they have made it to at least the semi-finals at all the other tournaments.
