You can get your hands on rugby’s most sought after prize when the Rugby World Cup touches down in Jersey.
The Webb Ellis Cup is in the Island today and fans can get their eyes on the big prize and their photo taken with it in the Royal Square this morning.
One Rugby fan, Bailiwick Express's Jarryd Strover, was among the first to get his hands on the trophy.
The cup is here as part of its 100-day tour around the UK and Ireland before the competition kicks off in England on 18 September when the England rugby team take on Fiji.
The Cup started its UK tour on 10 June and has been at numerous events engaging with clubs and organisations from grass roots to elite level.
It's already visited Japan, Australia, Fiji, Madagascar, South Africa, Argentina, Uruguay, USA, UAE, Hong Kong and China, Italy, Romania, Canada, Germany and France.
The 2015 Rugby World Cup is the eighth Rugby World Cup - the quadrennial rugby union world championship. England is hosting the tournament from 19 September until 31 October with the final being played in London's Twickenham Stadium.
You can also meet some of the JRFC’s 1st XV who will be in the Royal Square this morning with the Cup from 9.15 am until about 10.45 am.
