    <p>8/14.  Better than 50%!!</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>You might want to change the second on the list to 1983-19<u><strong>9</strong></u>7 rather than 1987 ...</p>

    <p>I sucked hard at the 300-gamers. And then i saw the answers and kicked myself. I allowed the dates to throw me, rather than hammering in names of veterans</p>

    <p>Are overseas first class matches counted in the 300? If so Spencer would easily be over.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>And is Caleb Ralph really over 300? Wiki seems to think he's more in the 270 range.</p>

    <p>I got 8/14 on quiz 2 as well.   Only one I'm kicking myself over is Grant Fox.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Amazing that we have 2 Hookers playing over exactly the same era in this list.</p>

    <p>Probably the 1905 one doesn't stick in living memory so will be surprised if anyone got 100% first off.</p>

    <p>Matches played for overseas teams do not count.</p>
    <p>Source for this info is NZ Rugby Almanack which lists him as being over 300. Doesn't surprise as never injured, played for Maoris, All Blacks, NZ Colts, started with BOP at 18 or thereabouts.</p>

    I did recall the 1905 one from reading and re - reading Men in Black 20 odd years ago. But couldn't think of it for this. Had Mitchell stuck in my head for some reason.

    <p>75% on my first go. Missed the 1905 and two 1987 ones. The 2011 one was the hardest that I managed to get. I must've gone through every RWC back before finally figuring out that he was still a guy who was somehow still around the ABs at the time.</p>

    That's a shocking admission. Ex wallaby/crusaders coach will be very disappointed. Ever heard of the shield they play for in akl club rugby or the trophy France and ab's compete for?<br><br>
    Reality: fucking impressed that's all you missed out on.

    <p>All good mate. Wiki didn't include colts.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>And I'd definitely trust the NZRA over Wiki anyway.</p>
