Thankfully a NZ Rugby Almanack from 2014 helped out here.
Steinlager Salver Recipients. I'd say 100% is nigh on impossible even with the clues I've given
Missed:
2000 - interesting how "modern" he was
2006 - wouldn't have got him
2008 - could "see" him, couldn't remember name
2009 - would have got him if I could scroll through on my phone*
2012 - who?
2014 - oh yeah. Wouldn't have got him
2015 - mmm. See 2014 but even less so-
- sat next to him during an afternoon session at a cricket test in Hamilton v Zimbabwe. He passed comment that Nathan Astle would probably never be a test match player. I agreed.

He was the manager at the time.

I don't get this one. Neither Clown, Steadie Eddie or Dingo come up as correct.
Krusty?

Nice. Liked that one.
I only got 11/18.Some I hadn't heard of like the TV producer. I guessed it might have been Graeme Veitch, for getting Grassroots rugby telecast.

Missed 2. Would never have got them.
-
@booboo did one better than you - missed the one that is "hardest" Mainly because I worked through all the nations that are pro womans sport and / or have a tenuous relationship with rugby
To my knowledge the one I missed fits neither of those criteria

Fixed up this quiz.
ABs who have started a RWC Final. Previously not formatted correctly.

Yeah same. I feel like there is 20 nations who you should be able to guess; and one which just comes from absolutely nowhere.

Ran out of time typing on phone . Missed two but would have got them (2011 halfback and 2015 11).

Yeah ... that one was hard. Also one of the others wasn't straightforward IMO but I get @dogmeat 's logic.

I just managed to finish on my computer due to typing speed. And I did it position by position which was probably a bit slower than doing it team by team.

I missed 3 of the 4 wingers from 11/15 - illustrating perfectly their importance to the game....
Also the loosehead from 95 - knew him could see him - what provinve he played for what hes done since grrrr
For some reason the 2011 loosehead was the one I struggled with - no idea why, just brain blank.
