    I was at this game.

    I got all the Cantabs (14 I had to dredge the memory bank for - and in fact recalled the right guy while I was trying to remember Andrew McMaster).

    11 Auks - missed 2, 8, 9 and 12. Should definitely have got 9 and possibly 12.

    I clicked the give up button with only the 14 remaining and trying to type McMaster in several different ways, assuming it wouldn't accept it coz he'd done a typo again .....

      I did better than I thought - 28/30. The Auckland team was easy to remember but I missed the Canterbury 1 and 14.

      I do remember exactly where I was when I watched the delayed broadcast of the match on TV.

        @Rapido Damn, nice work, I got 26/30. Misspelt the Auckland hookers name, and missed 14, 6, 2, and 1 of the Village of the Damned and only remember who 6 and 2 are.

          @booboo A tip: I only type in the players surname so never worry about their first name.

          @Nepia The Canty No.6 was their captain so I can always picture him handing over the RS. I also went to a RS game at Lancaster Park in 1983, against Hawke's Bay no less!

            When I think I've run out of quiz ideas, another one appears! Wanting to do the teams from the 1993 Waikato vs Auckland shield match but struggling to find them on the net anywhere.

            Any ideas guys?

                  @Nepia Hey - No. 1 was an All Black. He had an exceptional record of coming from the bench in every test he played in and scoring a try in every test he played in.

                  He also lost every test he played in! ๐Ÿ™‚

                    Damn, I loosely know the name, but that's about it. I'm glad I was more interested in playing that supporting in those days, that tour would have been frustrating as fudge for supporters.

                        OK, so it worked. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

                        There will be a few tricky answers in both teams.

                          @Bovidae my point about his first name is that he used the correct number of i's. I applaud his Scottish heritage. Too many of English heritage scrimp on the correct number of vowels in the spelling.

                          FYI I dont usually guess with the first name. Unless something like "Jonah" is going to get recognised.

                          Was perturbed that no matter how many timeszl I typed "Fitzy" or "Fitzpatrick" it wasn't accepted. ๐Ÿ™‚

                                  Regarding my comment below, I am referring to the Waikato LH prop and Auckland no.6, in particular. The player most people will expect to be the Waikato no.1 in that match was actually sitting in the terraces that day.

                                        Urrgh. I saw us get beaten by France in 1994 but that had the try from the end of the world. I also saw the 1999 debacle but France were on fire that day.

                                        The worst live loss I saw was an ABs v Wobs at Carisbrook in the 00s, we just played shit.

                                          @Nepia The only AB game I saw live in 12 years was the Twickenham match that Stu Wilson captained....

                                          Urrgh. I saw us get beaten by France in 1994 but that had the try from the end of the world. I also saw the 1999 debacle but France were on fire that day.

                                          The worst live loss I saw was an ABs v Wobs at Carisbrook in the 00s, we just played shit.
