@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.

Ive seen 41 tests live but only 4 defeats. 2 against England 73 and 83.
World XV in 92 (first game back in NZ - so I saw back to back defeats) and France 94.
All were shocking in their own way
So you have a 90% winning record. Impressive.
FYI I'm unbeaten after 7 ...

@Bovidae That's a pretty good winning record
I didn't have that many opportunities to see AB's live until I was in my 30's through a mix of only played about 5 tests at EP in the 70's and another half doz in the 12 winters I spent in Europe. Crazy when compared to todays programme.
My dubious distinction is that the first AB side I saw only contained one player born after WWII (NMS' uncle) and 3 born before it started

@dogmeat
My first AB test was vs the World XV in 1992 and it was 4 years later before I went to my second test. The majority of my AB tests have been post 2000 but I also lived outside of NZ for 4 years in that decade so didn't attend any tests, or be able to watch most of them on TV. -

Aaarrgh ... missed 3
Didn't realise you were including proposed opponents from 2017! ! ! My phone doesn't scroll when quizzing!
So 2 of the misses were upcoming opponents through lack of time.
So I'm claiming I missed one .... from 1971 ...
Will be pretty obvious which one i missed i think
