Yes, and ranked higher in rugby than in football. They almost qualified for the WC finals in 2003.

Yep, I bought the national jersey whilst on hols in Hongkong in 2004. Actually, I have been looking for an excuse to wear the thing, so I might get up there for it. BTW, Rugby is played in around 110 countries and after the football world cup, the RWC is the biggest single sporting event on earth.

Damn, that'd be a find: can you post a pic JG?

The only rugby jersey I have with me is the one in my avatar.

I'll dig it out of mothballs and get a better one later, but here is your's truelly modelling said piece of sporting attire in Hongkers whilst enjoying a refreshing glass of brain tonic.



You can pick them up in Stanley Markets for about 10 bucks US if you or a friend is ever passing through.

Believe it or not, I don't know where Bundang is. But, I believe that the stadium is very close to Mokdong or Omokyo station on line 5. Get there and it will be signed.

EDIT: Sorry, that information is incorrect: see the later post from sojukettle -
