<p>8/10. I would never have chosen the second to last player on the list, and can't believe I forgot about the player with 12 tries. Duh!</p> -
<p>I didn't get 12 (really had no idea he got that many after 30 ... wish he'd carried on a year longer) and the first 5. The second to last 5 was an obvious one due to circumstances.</p>

<p>I assume it was 34? I just started going through the most recent AB squads older players to get him who was my last one by about 40 seconds.</p> -
<p>That's the one Nepia. Hadn't realised he had played that many tests for starters.</p>

<p>You mean he's not going to add many more caps to his tally - rather than be overtaken in the caps past 30 stakes?</p>

<p>Possible - but he'll likely still get plenty off the bench.</p> -

<p>Well he's signed till the end of 2018 so he's got that going for him. But he is 33 this month.</p>

<p>He'd need to be available and in form for almost all of those next 3 years to add 33 more tests.</p> -

<p>All I mean is that I think Moody is going to/has surpassed him at AB level.</p> -
<p>Moody will be the starter next year, and I would put my money on Crockett being surpassed by someone else coming through as Moody's backup.</p>

<p>I actually got 4 quite easy - although I can't believe that 4 has more than 5 I knew that 4 was up there. </p>

<p>6 was the hardest, as there were a few other players in there I thought would be higher.</p>

<p>I know what you're saying, but you'd think a winger or fullback playing 100 games in that team would have at least accidentally fallen over the line more than 25 times.</p> -

<p>Good point re Ben Smith. Both those players have a much better strike rate playing for the All Blacks.</p> -

<p>The player you speak of is about 1 try away from making the list it seems. Maybe he'll score tonight and force me to update the quiz.</p>
