    <p>I did one for the young players, now for the veterans. Incredibly one player appears on both lists. Cut this off at 1970, although many of you probably know of Ned Hughes who back in the day took the field as a 40 year old. Only one back on this list of players who have played a test aged 35 or older.</p>

    <p>The hardest one for me was 2013 ... I was just going through names guessing.</p>

    <p>got 'em yes! and only because one was covered in another quiz. just hammering in names of try scorers of the pro era took care of the vast majority of that one. </p>

    <p>I reckon Haden and Knight are missing from that list. Both 35 in their last tests.</p>

    <p>I didn't realise he was older than 2014. A comeback next year is probably out of the question....</p>

    <p>I was surprised when their names didn't earn a result when I did. </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>I was the same with 2013 so overlooked him completely. </p>

    <p>Meh, that's the sort of softness you expect when you mix Northland and Canterbury.</p>

    One reason 72 is so hard is it won't accept the answer. Missed the 2nd and 3rd tours. Hobbs. Marshall and Blackadder. Thought Thorne captained those

    <p>Missed 2000 and 35/36.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Wasted lots of time on 1972 but eventually it accepted first and last name. I was actually closer to getting 35/36 than I was to 2000. </p>

    <p>Usually I put in nicknames, surname etc as answers and so on but didn't have his surname as acceptable answer. Amended now.</p>
