The drop goal was a big decider in England being the only northern hemisphere country to win the Webb Ellis cup, thanks to the best Fly Half in the world good ol Jonny Wilkinson

Carter's was under so much pressure - World Cup final, Australia on the comeback and they had been targeting him all game with dirty head high tackles, so to hit it so well from such distance was incredible.

Nothing Beats Frans Steyn

The longest recorded successful drop goal is 77.7m (85yd) by Gerald Hamilton `Gerry' Brand (b. 8 Oct 1906) for South Africa v. England at Twickenham, Greater London, on 2 Jan 1932.

Drop goals are the most under used weapon in the arsenal of world rugby. To be able to pick up 3 points every time you have possession inside the oppositions half gives a team a devastating advantage. It amazes me it's not used more often, it just needs lots of practice.

Larkham and Brooke! Best 2! On the run drop goal! Superb!

I must admit I love Zinnie's drop goal (at 5:50) because he doesn't even stop running. Its not the most attractive kick, but 3 points is 3 points.

When I was 16, I just started to play Rugby in high school. I was No.8 but I believed Forward Player just powerful and strong at around breakdown and maul, something. However, my way of thinking was totally changed by Zinzan’s. I couldn’t be good at drop kick though haha

The kick by Zinzan won the game. He was no.8.

I remember when i was about 14, effortlessly drop kicking from 45m out, watched it sail way over the posts and then the stunned look as a half dozen of my team mates turned around to see who kicked that absolute missile of a ball. I've never kicked a ball the same way since. I don't know how i did it, or the science behind it but it was absolutely incredible. a 14 year old, launching a 50m + drop goal effortlessly . crazy.

The second one...... priceless in the back is js meant to be❤❤

Zinny’s is clearly the longest ever. It was “from a million miles out” 😂

I remember the Zinzan Brooke drop! Watched the game live. I just started high school that year. For the next two rugby seasons, loosies were all trying drop kicks! It was so bad, as a backline player, to try and get the ball... What a player Zinzan was!

one of the coolest plays in all sports

It's kinda crazy to see so few people attempt drop goals. Either it's really difficult (explaining why SA's attempts by Kolbe, Arendse and Willemse in the recent 1/4s and final were missed) or not many players/teams are ready to take the risks.

Larkhams is easily the most remarkable, this was in the 98th minute of a semi final that had gone into overtime, it was pounding down with rain, Larkham was on one leg due to a thigh injury earlier, and it was his first attempt at a drop goal at any level of rugby since he tried once as a 14 year old. They won the World Cup the next week.

I agree. But in rugby all things Australia will be eternally underrated. It's New Zealanders and Southafricans who get all the promotion, the spotlight and the marketing. Larkham was one of the best players I've ever seen, if not the best, and he never gets mentioned when talking about the best players ever. His drop against South Africa was just epic and defining, and like its author it doesn't get recognized as such.

ミラー選手のドロップゴールは記憶に有りましたが、沖土井選手が、ランクインしているとはびっくりした。

How can you NOT have Joel Stransky's drop goal which effectively won the 1995 World Cup as part of your package?

What makes it so amazing is that it was an obvious split-second decision. Larkham wasn't in the pocket, he was still running right along with the rest of the backline, and the drop of the ball was far from perfect. He just timed it to perfection and the ball flew like a rocket.

Drop goals are a real beauty! Best for me are those from Dan Carter and François Steyn (pity none shown here).

Opeti Turuva for Fiji must be the the longest drop goal in a RWC. Fiji Vs Romania 1991. And Manasa Qoro(Fiji) was the first forward or no 8 to drop goal before Zinny in 1987 . But I'll stick to Hannie Debeer of SA as the best ever in a RWC . 5 in one game ( A record )
