My Latest All Blacks Quiz

Bovidae

Did you ever use the info for a quiz that I gave you back in the days of the old TSF?

I honestly can't remember all of the questions/answers I PMed you but I know it did include the AB who scored the last 3 pt try, first and last 4 pt try, and first 5 pt try in tests.

@booboo Good call. Had nickname in but not surname. Now fixed.

Bovidae

Got all of those DGs in SFs in quick time.

To be honest I don't remember some of them but with years it's not too hard to make an educated guess. I fluked the spelling of the Frenchie first time.

I remember you sending me some stuff and don't think I used it at the time, although not sure why. Maybe time to do the quiz!

Wow.

16 RWC semi finals in history.
And 10 guys have scored 14 drop goals between them in those 16 games.

12 of those 14 drop goals were by the winning team.

4 of them were even by New Zealanders! (All winning DGs).

That is a really very telling stat! Maybe there's something in these drop goal thingys.

Rapido

and 8 RWC finals.

4 of the finals have featured drop goals. With one final having 1 each by each team. 5 DGs in total.

5 drop goals, 4 of them by the winning team.

Not sure how I know all of those...

I have made my own quiz.

(Direction of movement if the player is from RL to RU, not vice versa) Ignoring 7s and 9s.

@Rapido Missed four (that everyone else seems to have missed). I kept typing names I recognised but on reflection hadn't played a test in both codes, like Hunt.

booboo

Never heard of the Saffer to England

@Rapido Nice quiz 9/14 for someone that doesn't really follow league much.

Most starts as a prop for the All Blacks.

Chris B.

10/11 for the props - missed the last one.

dogmeat

@Chris-B. I got him but missed 37 and 36 doh

Bovidae

I got them all but the last to get was the 37 test prop - the forgotten man. The others came quickly but that one took time to remember.

booboo

Missed 2.

One I got but couldn't get the spelling. Plugged him in 3 or 4 times with an e instead of an a.

The other I got on first interrupted attempt ... then forgot when I restarted.

Rapido

I've made another quiz.

http://www.jetpunk.com/user-quizzes/242282/rugby-played-for-baby-blacks-then-played-for-another-country-at-senior-level

Since the introduction of U20 rugby World Cup in 2008. Name the players who have played for the Baby Blacks at the JWC and then gone on to play for another country at senior level.

This will get out of date very quickly. Going through the squads and there are about another 9 qualifying currently for other countries, or being linked/ rumoured to other countries etc

Bovidae

@Rapido That's difficult, especially for the Samoan and Tongan players. 8/13.

I typed in the surname for the 2012 Scottish player and it didn't work. I needed his full name.

Rapido

@Bovidae
Have fixed that.
I've added a extra few hints as well because yeah some of the Samoan and Tongan guys aren't very famous.
