My Latest All Blacks Quiz

[booboo]

Strangely the hardest was England ... ... i thought it was more recent which gave me South Africa by default

[Smudge]

<p>Got all of them reasonably quickly - would be ideal if there was a minefield version of this, so if you put in a wrong year, you lose. Probably not something Jetpunk does though (I know it's possible on Sporcle).</p>

[MN5]

<p>Got them all but a couple were only through guesswork.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Its a shame for the proud Celts that Argentina are way more likely to bag that elusive AB scalp than they are.</p>

[Nepia]

<p>I didn't get Scotland - and all my guesses were way off, clearly I've blocked that particular tour from my memory banks.</p>

[NZRUGBYQUIZZES]

<p>Thought I'd do a club one to gauge the interest, if this does interest people I have a whole lot of other provincial unions to cover.</p>

Good one. But you're missing one. Rimutaka.

<p>Merged with Upper Hutt to form Upper Hutt Rams. They still have their own junior program (my son plays there) but again that is under the UH Rams umbrella</p>

Not bad for me. Not shocked at any I missed although i could have got a couple.

[booboo]

Like the idea NZRQ.<br><br>
Would be an interesting exercise.<br><br>
I think clubs have changed a bit in Aucland from my day. So I might struggle now.<br><br>
In those days IIRC there were 21 mainland based clubs.

[NZRUGBYQUIZZES]

<p>Definitely planning to do Auckland soonish but would need to do some research first. There have been at least 2 mergers since I last lived in Auckland.</p>

[NZRUGBYQUIZZES]

<p>Missed updating this one after the Tonga match last year. NH test cities</p>

[booboo]

Missed a few.<br><br>
Thought the Scottish one was Inverness.<br><br>
Thought we had played in Vancouver on the way to Wales in 1989. But that may have been v. BC rather than a test.<br><br>
Missed a fairly obvious Italian one.<br><br>
Missed a glaringly obvious French one. <br><br>
Of the other 10 I missed i may have got 2.

[NZRUGBYQUIZZES]

<p>Definitely no test played against Canada in 1989, but BC was pretty much the Canadian team anyway at that time.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>One of the trickier quizzes this one I think.</p>

[NZRUGBYQUIZZES]

<p>I hope I've done this one justice, but this sort of thing is hard to format well using Jetpunk.</p>

<p>Hopefully no errors in it.</p>

[Bovidae]

<p>I got 22/27 for the NH AB test venues.  I missed 2 of the Italian venues, one of which I should have got as my sister and Italian brother-in-law went to that test and I've been through the city ([spoiler]Genova[/spoiler]) a few times, including in April this year.  I did type in the venue for the 1979 test but perhaps this wasn't an official test?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The others I missed were in 3 different countries.  Good quiz.</p>

<p>That was hard. I had to say it over and over and missed one - I separated two words that are one: [spoiler] whakawhiti [/spoiler].</p>

<p>Someone on twitter tried to dispute the answers to the NH cities quiz and it lead to this quiz.</p>

I don't know how to do spoilers, so I'll be cryptic. <br><br>
what about 77 and 79? Against the same country. Although one of them was a presidents XV or some such, I thought the other, probably 79, was an unofficial test?

<p> </p>
<p>Well spotted, will update quiz with 79 games. 77 was against a Presidents XV so doesn't count.</p>

<p>My proofreader has yet again been defenestrated.</p>

Wasn't there an unofficial international at the end of the tour to Ireland in 1974? Against what would otherwise be a full international but neither side awarded caps? Had me stuck on 1974 for a while ...
