<p>Amazing how things change in a lifetime.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Don Clarke's record 207 stood for soooo long. Hewie got close and it was talked about each time he played his last 4 or 5 tests.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Massive deal when Stu Wilson got his record equalling 16th try, off a flanker (Kirkpatrick). Was replayed over and over</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hewie's 26 points vs Aus was generally thought of as a freakish performance, and I think was a world record at the time. Especially poignant as it came against a top team and featured a cracking 45 metre droppie with a leather ball</p>

<p>Oh how things change</p> -
<p>23/42</p>
<p> </p>
<p>But will give myself 24 - as for Major Rage it wouldn't accept "Henderson" .... NZ's most successful test captain ... but it was included in the answers.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Again like Rage am particularly pissed off I missed Hobbs and Whetton, and add in Fred Allen on the oops of course list<br>
</p>
<p>I thought I had put Laidlaw in but apparently I missed him ...<br>

<p>Don Clarke's record 207 stood for soooo long. Hewie got close and it was talked about each time he played his last 4 or 5 tests. <strong>Got dropped for the Dingo after playing poorly in the first test v Aus in 1984. Was always under pressure for his spot - was a frail little fulla. Went from zero to hero in '81 3rd test v Boks after letting the ball bounce and allowing Mordt to score - but then kicking THAT goal. Anyways - 99% of the country (including teenage booboo) were baying for his spot to be taken by Dingo - but I'd have loved to see him take the record.</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Massive deal when Stu Wilson got his record equalling 16th try, off a flanker (Kirkpatrick). Was replayed over and over <strong>v Scotland 1981</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hewie's 26 points vs Aus was generally thought of as a freakish performance, and I think was a world record at the time. Especially poignant as it came against a top team and featured a cracking 45 metre droppie with a leather ball <strong>third test Eden Park 1982. That droppied from a scrum free kick (halfback taps and feeds the droppy taker - not possible now). Didn't Michael Hawker bang one in the same game from his own side of half way? Roger Gould scored in the first minute for Aussie. I thought we were going to get pumped.</strong></p>

<p>Posted these squad ones a while ago. Have only done 1987 and 2011 world cup squads. No amount of money will make me want to do the other RWC squads!</p>

I was pretty pleased with 24 from 27 for 1987. Considering I hadnt quite turned 4 at the time.<br><br>
Missed out on earl, Wright and Crowley. -
<p>I need to fix up Flynn, if you type in Corey Flynn it will work.</p>
-
<p>Will now work with Flynn</p>

<p>Missed Deans, Bernie, Brooke-Cowden and Anderson in the 87 squad</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Missed Gear in the 11 (completely forgot he got called in to the squad to hold tackle bags), and same, wouldn't accept any variation of Flynn</p>
