That one was hard, I missed 5 - the first BL lock and all their front rowers bar there hooker in the final two tests.
-
4 mins makes it tough. I missed the 3 and 4 in test 1 and neither player crossed my mind. I knew the Lions LH but took a while to have the correct spelling. I hadn't watched any of the highlights bar the Waikato game so was happy to remember enough to get 37/39.

Damn, my memory is shot, I only got 7 of those and at least 3 of them I thought were already ABs. I still can't believe the final one is an AB, but then again that is a position where we've had a couple of dicey ABs in the past few years.

@Bovidae Originally misspelled his name and took the surname type in option out accidentally when I had realised I had done it..
Now fixed!
-
Might look to do a series of debutants by year but not sure how far to go back.
Thinking 2010 maybe?

So three guys with one test to their name who have either retired, or are in danger of retiring, because of concussion.
Clearly the message here is "dont be a one cap AB".
-
@Milk My colleague knows him. Said to me the other day that he doesn't think he'll ever play again.
-
@Rugger-Quizzes That sux. Hopefully his post rugby life is symptom free.
His situation hasn't seemed to have gotten as much media attention as some the other guys, or even Ben Afeaki from a few years ago.

I wonder if the 2003 England side will be rugby's equivalent to England's 1966 Soccer team where generations to come will hark back to the only time an English side won a world cup.
In any case here is the England starting XV quiz from that year's RWC final.
2003 Rugby World Cup Final - England Starting XV
Name the Starting XV for the 2003 RWC Champions England in the world cup final of that year
