QUIZ: Can you find the rugby related words missing in the movie titles?

Guy Ritchie’s 1998 British classic does feature on the list

We all love rugby, that is a given.

However, one thing our great sport has never truly cracked is its place on the silver screen.

Granted, Invictus gave it a fair whack and is extremely enjoyable - but it is as isolated as a Richie McCaw turnover in terms of rugby movies.

As downright epic as the Bollywood hit Sye is, it doesn’t quite measure up.

Similarly, the 30 seconds provided by a sweaty Matt Damon packing down in Martin Scorsese’s The Departed just isn’t enough to whet our appetites.

However, rugby phrases and terms are mentioned in the titles of more films than you might think.

So can you pick the rugby related words missing in the below movie titles?

Good luck, and don’t forget to tweet us your scores @TheFlankerRugby or comment with them on Facebook @theflankerrugby
