Something strange has been happening in this World Cup. It might be the wonderful abandon that has been played by teams like Fiji, Samoa, and Canada - but there have been some wonderful tries on show.

Strangely enough though - five of the best tries of the tournament weren't actually allowed. Whether it was a narrow forward pass, or being in touch - tries like Simon Zebo's amazing solo effort against Romania were rewarded for it's artistry with points on the scoreboard.

Thankfully, World Rugby have decided to rank the five best disallowed tries of the World Cup - and it features Zebo's effort as well as some memorable moments from Niko Matawalu, Tusi Pisi, Telusa Veainu, and Phil Mackenzie.

Do you agree with their ranking?
