My Latest All Blacks Quiz
-
<p>Missed 1997 for HC and two of the yellow cards</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>Missed the 1999-2004 lock.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>For shame!</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> </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> -
2.05 left on cities

<p>Would have got 100% on the Most Quiz with a couple of minutes to go but I spelt the most tries v France name wrong.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I missed a real easy one on the cities - the 3rd to last one.</p> -

<p> </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> -

<p>Same.</p>

<p>[spoiler]Allen, Vodanovich and Stewart. I knew there was an Otago coach (Watson), but couldn't think of his name. Should have got Gleeson and possibly Burke. Vodonovich sticks in my memory because TP McLean (I think) said of him that he took away a rugby team and brought back a bunch of cross-country runners.[/spoiler]</p> -
Just noticed that there is not a 100% success rate for the current AB Coach :0
-
<p>That always happens for some reason. Anyone from anywhere can pick up the quiz via jetpunk and do it, so seldom does any answer get picked by 100% of people, as basic as it might appear to us rugbyheads.</p>

<p>I got two of your ones.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>[spoiler] I got Allen and Vodanovich - who incidentally took up about 30 seconds in spelling errors - and then Gleeson. I should have got Watson because he was the idiot who left Bruce Robertson at home in 1980 and being a good Hastings Boys' man I really should have remembered that. I should have got Stewart.

<p> </p>
<p>Top tryscorers by year in the 90s. Crikey, 1994 threw a spanner in the works of this quiz!</p> -
<p>18/19</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Surprisingly I got all of 1994 - I missed the first 1998. Another one I feel embarrassed about missing.</p> -
<p>15/19 = 79%.</p>
-
<p>14/19 Early 90's troubled me</p>
-
<p>16/19</p>
-
<p>16 Missed 1st 90 2nd 92 and 3rd 94</p>

<p>Missed the second 1992. </p>

<p> </p>
<p>Venues in Australia where the Wallabies and All Blacks have played each other.</p> -
Missed one - the second last
-
<p>Missed the 4 "hardest" Really should have got the one 3rd from top</p>
-
<p>I got to 7/11 fairly quick and then couldn't think of any more and then clicked on the 3rd from the top - so 8/11.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm surprised more games weren't played at the first of the 3s.</p> -

<p>Too much time for that one I think. I got all bar the top straight away and then it took me until 1:57 just going through all the players from the 20s I could think of until I got him.</p>
-
<p>4/5. Had no hope of getting the top one</p>
-
<p>4/5. Missed the top one and spent most of my time trying to figure out the second to top one because his nickname didn't work.</p>
