Mike CATT - England - 2007 Rugby World Cup

 

The pictures above show Mike during England's 15-6 defeat to South Africa in the 2007 Rugby World Cup final.Catt was forced to leave the action in the 50th minute due to injury and that would prove to be the final time that he would be seen in an England shirt, as he announced his retirement from international Rugby a week orso after the final. In a roller coaster international career that lasted no less than 13 years, Mike featured in four World Cups. The highlight was undoubtedly the 2003 success but this 2007 effort was not far behind. Both England and Mike were well off the pace in the early stages of the tournament but a dramatic about turn in fortunes for both player and country so very nearly saw Englandpull off the most unlikely of triumphs.
