My Latest All Blacks Quiz

<blockquote class="ipsBlockquote" data-author="Chris B." data-cid="535704" data-time="1446013546"><p>Hi UHB<br><br>
Question for you - how close is McCaw to having the longest AB career in terms of time elapsed? A quick google of a couple of likely candidates suggests not far.<br><br>
Not sure if your data can throw up a quiz on this one.</p></blockquote>

He guy that started pre WWII and carried on after? -

<p> </p>
<p>I looked at the oldest AB - pre- and post-WWI and Pinetree. Both are comparable to McCaw.Actually, I just worked it out and (if my maths are right) both are ahead of Richie...but, he can beat them (in terms of tests and probably in total) if he goes for 150 tests!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>But, there may be someone with more. </p> -
<p>OK so who will have two medals to their name IF we win this weekend:</p>
<p> </p>
<div>Keven Mealamu<span> </span></div>
<div>Ben Franks<span> </span></div>
<div>Owen Franks<span> </span></div>
<div>Tony Woodcock</div>
<div>Sam Whitelock<span> </span></div>
<div>Jerome Kaino<span> </span></div>
<div>Richie McCaw</div>
<div>Kieran Read</div>
<div>Victor Vito<span> </span></div>
<div>Dan Carter<span> </span></div>
<div>Colin Slade<span> </span></div>
<div>Ma'a Nonu<span> </span></div>
<div>Conrad Smith<span> </span></div>
<div>Sonny Bill Williams<span> </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div>So 14 guys. With about 9 of them stepping on the field in both finals.</div> -
<p>One quiz I did do was an appeared in 2 world cups one.</p>

<p> </p>
<p>It will get updated regardless of results..</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Going to update stacks of quizzes after the final.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Longevity is also a good idea. I'll do something in the next day or two.</p> -

<p>You missed one. [spoiler]Pauliasi Manu. Would've been a good way to trip some people who weren't paying attention up.[/spoiler]</p> -
<p>Was he officially in the squad though Unco?</p>
-
<p>Hmmm. Any other views on this one? Happy to add as it will likely trip a few people up.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>My 2011 squad quiz is one of my most popular ones, so I suspect the 2015 one over time may not be too different.</p> -
