Quick Background

I didn't know this DVD existed until seeing a review in an edition of the Rugby World magazine, which (if memory serves me right) rated the DVD highly. Upon viewing the DVD myself, I totally see why.

It features a genuine behind-the-scenes look at the England rugby team in the months leading up to the 2007 Rugby World Cup. The DVD showcases some interesting footage of the team's match preparation, training sessions, pre- and post-match drama, as well as some brilliantly-shot in-game highlights.

The disc offers the viewer an inside look at the dynamics of the England team, and allows the viewer to familiarize with the different characters of the team, in particular David Strettle which the producers dedicated a section of the DVD to.
Pros

* The DVD does a good job in documenting the team's fluctuating form and fortune, and adequately featured the rough journey the team had leading up to the World Cup.

* The exclusive look behind the scenes would surely attract not just the hardcore England rugby fans, but also avid sports fans, who will come away impressed by the physically and mentally tough nature of a professional rugby player's occupation,

* You will love the DVD if you're a fan of David Strettle, because as I had mentioned earlier in this review, there is a segment in the DVD that is dedicated to him, as well as an extended feature of him in the bonus section.

* The DVD will probably make you want to get off your bum and get out there to improve your physique and health, after scenes of athletes giving their all in training and in matches.

Cons

Well, I enjoyed the DVD so much that I didn't want it to end, and that's the only one gripe I have.
Overall

Thought this DVD was a very informative one, which achieved all that it had promised to.

I would most definitely recommend this DVD to all England rugby fans who want to have a look at their beloved team's preparation prior to the 2007 Rugby World Cup in France.
