    <p>I think that is the same guy I'm talking about at the end of my sentence.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Although, TBF, I don't think his value to teams has ever been as an out and out try scorer. It's like Ben from Accounting, his try scoring stats don't really measure up to his greatness as a player.</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>Ben from accounting is only 26 tries in 110 matches which is why I brought him up earlier - and he plays on a team that has won the comp.</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>

    <p>I've not seen that before, had a look around and found it was invented by an "alternative media collective" you have over there which comments on matches and such - it really is very funny and so very apt for the splendid Ben Smith.</p>

    <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>

    <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>

    <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>

    <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>

    <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>
