    @booboo Including teams that now make up an existing team but used to have a separate identity but not teams like Northland, Waikato, Horowhenua etc who have changed their name but not their boundary

    Also including composite teams that later reverted to their individual sides but only if they participated in NZRU comps not sides made up as one-offs to face touring sides i.e. not Counties- Thames Valley or King Country-Wanganui

    @booboo pm'd you I bet I know the one you didn't get

    I'm guessing the first two combined into the third one?

    Fifth one: d'oh

    Last one: huh? Really? When was that? Had to be pre NPC (1976?) Did they have a shield challenge or something?

    Nice to see that quiz sparked a look back at Provincial Rugby history! Have been meaning to do it for ages but couldn't get the formatting of the map right. Finally worked out how to do it so really happy with the result.

    Hmmm ... 3 out if 6 (or two out of 5 🙂 ), but thought I had typed 1983 in. So I'm taking 4

    @booboo My Bad. Full name and nickname were acceptable answers but surname wasn't. Now fixed.

    Thankfully a NZ Rugby Almanack from 2014 helped out here.

    Steinlager Salver Recipients. I'd say 100% is nigh on impossible even with the clues I've given

    I don't get this one. Neither Clown, Steadie Eddie or Dingo come up as correct.

    Missed:
    2000 - interesting how "modern" he was
    2006 - wouldn't have got him
    2008 - could "see" him, couldn't remember name
    2009 - would have got him if I could scroll through on my phone*
    2012 - who?
    2014 - oh yeah. Wouldn't have got him
    2015 - mmm. See 2014 but even less so

      • sat next to him during an afternoon session at a cricket test in Hamilton v Zimbabwe. He passed comment that Nathan Astle would probably never be a test match player. I agreed.

    He was the manager at the time.
