<p>Does no one else remember within about the last 5 years NZRU deciding this was no longer an All Black tour?<br><br>
Am I going mad?<br><br>
Don't mind if I am</p>

<p>You could be right, although it's a hard thing to peddle back on given they were clearly advertised as such and played in AB jerseys. The absence of Lochore would be the only reasonable argument.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Last five years would have been weird timing to decide that too given they've played two tests in Tokyo - it would seem like a time to play up rather than down play NZ/Japan history. Geoff Miller who runs the annual almanack would probably know best!</p> -
<p>I just looked at the most recent copy of Men In Black I own (published in 2006) and the 2 tests vs Japan are missing. Match 232 is the Bledisloe Cup match after RWC 1987 and match 233 is the 1st test vs Wales in 1988.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The Rugby Museum website is taking ages to load so perhaps someone should check if these games are classified as tests on there.</p> -
Definitely weren't tests Bovidae.<br><br>
I've just filled in a page confusing people due to a dodgy memory. -

Yeah, didn't accept my answer. I think it wasn't accepting surname only for the latest addiction. -
<p>Had better get that fixed up now. All my quizzes accept surname only.</p>

<p>Haha I completely blanked on the last one because I was trying to get the spelling right for one player from the 60s and one from the 70s, neither of who played a test.</p> -
Got an idea for your NZRQ.<br><br>
All Blacks' who's sons played test rugby for other nations.<br><br>
Might be hard to gather the stats, but I can think of 5. -

<p>An interesting one and definitely worth a go.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>A few names spring to mind already but I am sure there will be a lot more. Research needed mind you. </p> -
<p>This idea popped into my head on the train tonight.</p>

<p>I missed two, one of them was a terrible miss for me once I knew the player ... the other one I likely wouldn't have guessed with another minute.</p> -
