My Latest All Blacks Quiz

@booboo

We've wiped that match from our memories.

I thought there would have been more DGs but they were in QFs and SFs. I remember de Beer going crazy against England in 1999.

I thought Larkham also got a monster in the 99 final?

Semi final in OT

Drop goal in RWC semi you say? Well there's another quiz topic for you NZRQ.

That DG one was even easier than the #8 one

Missed the second sub in 96 quiz. Wouldn't have got him if I'd had a week

@Rapido

Indeed it is. Data sourceable enough. Consider it done!

You might want to allow surname as a type in for the second NZ 95 ...

(Went to edit to try his full name and inadvertently bump "Give up" so missed out the 2 x 2011s as well ... which I would gave got ... but I don't really remember the Aussi dg ... so record shows I missed 3 but I'm claiming 100%)

@Rugger-Quizzes

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...

[Rapido]

I have made my own quiz.

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

[antipodean]

@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

[Rugger Quizzes]

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

[Rugger Quizzes]

Most starts as a prop for the All Blacks.
