<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>I don't know, a lot of that time was the Hammettuer years. Boom! ;)</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>Good quiz - amazed how some of those years stick in one's mind</p> -
Strangely the hardest was England ...
... i thought it was more recent which gave me South Africa by default -
<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> -

Not bad for me. Not shocked at any I missed although i could have got a couple. -
Like the idea NZRQ.<br><br>
Would be an interesting exercise.<br><br>
I think clubs have changed a bit in Aucland from my day. So I might struggle now.<br><br>
In those days IIRC there were 21 mainland based clubs.
