It'd never happen. We should put Hammett in charge, he'll sort us out

I reckon I'm the kind of bog standard average he'd like, so I'll be safe ... you flair posters are f**ked though.

So Korea haven't held the shield. But who is the worst team to have held it?
Only non Tier One teams to have held it are Japan, Samoa, and Romania, so I'll let you decide! Romania took it off Scotland 🙄 Only (so called) Tier One side not to have held it is Italy

If one of the knock matches that has a Raeburn involved, is a draw after 80 mins, does the holder keep it??
It hasn't actually happened in a final yet as both RSA and England held the shield when they went into those matches.
However, extra time means you have a winner of that match so it is no longer and draw and the winning team would take the shield.
In normal matches with no extra time to find a winner the holder keeps the shield in the event if a draw.
I'm being pedantic sorry. Purely out of curiosity. If draw after extra time?
Love some pedantry so no worries there 😁
No such thing as a draw in a RWC knock-out game. A winner would always be found eventually and they would take the shield.

Started trying to step up some more regular content outside of current matches so been putting out #ONTHISDAY posts on social.
Ultimately would love to get the chance to interview some older ex players about their memories of some of these games. Think it would be really interesting getting some snapshots of experiences from some of these old games.
It's pretty cool looking back at games which would have involved the Shield if it were officially recognised. (Please do like the social pages and spread the word to help out on that front!)
Here are some examples
