My Latest All Blacks Quiz

<p>Got them all with 3:23 to spare.</p>

<p>What it tells us is that if we carry to many Crusaders in our team we're in danger of playing games with 14 men. ;)</p>

<p>[spoiler] Mark Robinson did well to get two cards in his brief AB career as the pre Conrad. [/spoiler]</p> -
<p>Got all the YC's with 3:36 to spare. The dates made it pretty easy.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>[spoiler]The fuck has Dagg been doing to appear in there? I get why tight and loose forwards make it, as well as Nonu (because he used to be a bit of an idiot) but a fullback?[/spoiler]</p> -

<p>[spoiler]I was completely thrown when it wasn't Troy Flavell. Then I spent quite a bit of time recalling Simon Maling's name and wondering if I was somehow misspelling him - as well as chucking in Jacko and Ali in case the dates were wrong.[/spoiler]</p> -

<p>I was similar.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>[spoiler] Every 3rd of 4th guess I tried different spellings of Waller as I was pretty sure he'd be on the list but then I figured he wouldn't have played enough tests. Tried Robinson too. Obviously the first name I wrote was the Thug brothers from your home town and I wasn't let down. [/spoiler]</p> -

<p>14/20 lol. missed a few french clubs and bath</p> -
<p>15/15 on the yellow cards. Helps that i did a similar quiz!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Actually scrap that, I didn't. Only time I used it was in the most quiz where the two blokes with 3 appeared.</p>

<p>That was a nice and easy one. 100%, 2:55 to spare. Would have taken longer if I hadn't just done the yellow card quiz.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>That Most-Losses record would be a stink one to have. At the time those two were playing they were dominating all sorts of records, and now that's pretty much the only one they have.</p> -

<p>Cities in which the ABs and the Boks have done battle.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Re the biggest losers, neither would be happy to hold that record I would imagine. At least one of the 2 still holds the record for most games and tries in his position. Both those records will be hard to pull in.</p> -

<p>That got me thinking, who has the most.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Most Test Losses by Country:</p>

<p> </p>
<p>Four tied on 44 for Australia, although only one is current, possibly two....</p> -
<p>Nice. Deliberately avoided a most losses quiz internationally as there are a bunch of Italians with 70 or more losses. Seemed like I was picking on them.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>14/15 missed one of the two Englishmen, and there was no way I would have guessed him.</p> -

Good quiz.<br><br>
Missed 4 coaches 77 through 84 (although I knew 83-84s first name ... ), who I should have known, and the first three and 72-73 who although familiar I wouldn't have got.<br><br>
[Spoiler] Wasn't Gilbert co-coach with Smith? [/spoiler] -

<p>I got all the ones from my life time onwards. Other names don't stand out as much even though I have read about them sometimes.</p>
