    <p>Yeah - a couple of very surprising names in that one - <strong>especially 1992-2001.</strong> One more than me, Nepia.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Could try a "never lost at home" one with x number of games (maybe you already have).   :)</p>

    </blockquote>
    <p>Yep, I would never have got him ... very few tests littered in that long time though (I think there is probably a 6 or 7 year gap between some of those tests). Wouldn't have got the 50s one either.</p>

      <p>I fluked the 50s one just by chucking in a few of the names I know.</p>

        <p>I didn't even get to that guessing as I was going through every player from the 90s I could think of - well except that one of course.</p>

          <p>11/12, just missed out on the 50s guy.</p>
          <p> </p>
          <p>The time spans help out a lot, 1992-2001 would be the only All Black to play during that time, no?</p>
          <p> </p>

            <p>Same for me.  Nepia's comment above helped for our mystery 1992-2001 player.  No chance with the 1950s AB.</p>
            <p> </p>
            <p>I'm surprised a few more players from the 1998 team weren't on this list.</p>

              <p>Another relatively hard one this one.</p>
              <p> </p>
              <p>International rugby Players with 40 or more home wins.</p>

              <p> </p>
              <p>Only hint I can give on this one is that other than 3 of the All Blacks on this list, everyone else has more than 100 caps in total.</p>

                        <p>One for the larger chaps. 2 or more tries in a test by a front row forward. Have cut this off at WW2.</p>

                          Missed one. From the 50s. Should have got him.

                                    <p>That same player appeared in the 4 tries or more in a test quiz I did a few months back as well. Scoring 4 tries in that era was some achievement.</p>

                                        <p>I missed one, presumably the same one as anyone else, and I wouldn't have gotten close to it.</p>

                                          <p>I've cut some of the pre WW2 guys out of a lot of my quizzes but thought given his achievements he should at least appear in this one and the 4 or more tries one.</p>
