@act-crusader as I was living in Holland and hitching round Europe I saw no rugby that year at all - I have seen Gary Knoght get flour bombed on TV several times since but that's it.
Was 1981 Nicky Allens brief time in AB's?

His name popped in my head but I think he only played Aus (3rd test) and Wales in 1980.
Could be wrong.
Most of the names above came from memories of the Bok tour, which was kind of a big deal ...
We toured France EOYT in 81 didn't we? Don't really remember it.
Wondering if Dunn or Wayne Smith made an appearance at 10 that year?

France and Romania. That was the tour that John Boe and Brian Morrissey went on. Koteka was another Waikato player in that squad. Jock Ross was also on that tour.

Those first two are names I wouldn't have got.
Edit: and I'd have struggled with Bam Bam.

@booboo I had a wall poster for that tour which had photos of all of the players and the itinerary. I remember there was a Woodman too.
Was going to say well that'd be Fred as I thought Kawhena didn't make the ABs, but apparently he did, in 1984, no tests.
Still Fred in 81 though.
