One of the good things about that clip is how after the punches were thrown everyone else just stood around like it was an accepted part of the game. Throw a punch and there will be retaliation, end of story get on wth the game. These days there is a 30 man posturing contest after a push.

Missed one of the forwards, forgot he was even on the tour.

How come the 1995s are the lowest and the most famous of all the least guessed? Astonished

I thought Larkham also got a monster in the 99 final?

@booboo

We've wiped that match from our memories.

I thought there would have been more DGs but they were in QFs and SFs. I remember de Beer going crazy against England in 1999.

You might want to allow surname as a type in for the second NZ 95 ...

(Went to edit to try his full name and inadvertently bump "Give up" so missed out the 2 x 2011s as well ... which I would gave got ... but I don't really remember the Aussi dg ... so record shows I missed 3 but I'm claiming 100%)

@Rugger-Quizzes

Did you ever use the info for a quiz that I gave you back in the days of the old TSF?

I honestly can't remember all of the questions/answers I PMed you but I know it did include the AB who scored the last 3 pt try, first and last 4 pt try, and first 5 pt try in tests.

@booboo Good call. Had nickname in but not surname. Now fixed.

[Bovidae]

Got all of those DGs in SFs in quick time.

To be honest I don't remember some of them but with years it's not too hard to make an educated guess. I fluked the spelling of the Frenchie first time.

I remember you sending me some stuff and don't think I used it at the time, although not sure why. Maybe time to do the quiz!

Also today updated the European Club Champs quiz.

European Rugby - Heineken Cup/Champions Cup winners

Name the club teams who have won the European Rugby Champions Cup, or its predecessor, the Heineken Cup

[Rapido]

Wow.

16 RWC semi finals in history.
And 10 guys have scored 14 drop goals between them in those 16 games.

12 of those 14 drop goals were by the winning team.

4 of them were even by New Zealanders! (All winning DGs).

That is a really very telling stat! Maybe there's something in these drop goal thingys.
