My Latest All Blacks Quiz
-
I said to NZRQ that I'd struggle to get 10. I got 12
...<br><br>
Missed the loosehead and both locks.<br><br>
Given I suggested this quiz I had a while to think about it. But did NOT go the google though. So the blindside was a result of having a little time to think.<br><br>
Would have got the rest that I did get legitimately though.<br><br>
I did think the loosehead was with the Cavaliers so had ruled him out.<br><br>
May be should have got the lock that was in the '87 RWC squad. The other lock I would never have got.<br><br>
BTW The idea of this quiz was in response to Mariner not knowing who "The Geriatrics" were. I mean, seriously, dude! -
There was one change from the French test to the first Bled thst year. Anyone know who weng out and who came in?<br><br>
Edit: sorry. My memory lets me down.<br><br>
One positional change plus two changes. Virtual chocolate fish to whoever can name them. -
Don't think the loose head would accept any spelling?<br><br>
So I'll award myself 14 out of 15 then. Missed a lock, and spent a lot of time spelling a different lock who must have been a reserve or played the next game. -

<p>Two locks who played for Waikato played in the 1st test vs Aust.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I remember the Baby Blacks team well. The correct spelling of one of the locks and a prop were my only problem.</p> -
<p>On a bit of a roll this week when it comes to quizzes.</p>

<p>Most appearances in Super Rugby. Is current as of at the end of last season, so one or two on the list have possibly moved up the list a bit.</p> -

<p>one wrong due to spelling haha</p> -
<p>I missed 2 of the most capped Super rugby players. The Crusader with 154 appearances I always forget in these quizzes.
And a SA player.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I got the players with 20+ pts vs the ABs without too much problem (< 1 min) but needed to spell the Frenchman's name a few times.</p> -

Well ... 22 of 32.<br><br>
All the names familiar. <br><br>
"Saw" two in my minds eye but couldn't get the names (first Saders coach and 2003 Blues).<br><br>
Missed an obvious Canes one that would piss Nepia off.<br><br>
Wasted time on a Chiefs coach that I already had because Canes.<br><br>
Didn't realise above Blues coach had the Clan too. Missed the other dual Blues/Clan.<br><br>
A couple of Clan with the same name.<br><br>
And an ex Counties coach with Red Squad tendancies ...
