    But we weren't asked to name the 87 RWC squad. We were asked to come up with an AB player from the mid 80's with a double-barreled surname.

    You mused why that person was more well known than some playing today and Boo pointed out it was novel in the 80's and I added he was a WC winner (plus as was said we are all old bastards)

    You can have a crack at the 1987 squad if you want!

    Anyone who doesn't get 100% you are officially allowed to stand for Australian Parliament!! (ie hand in your citizenship)

    (I'll have a crack later ... )

    Phew ... still a kiwi. 2 mins to spare. Only limited by typing speed.

    Latest quiz - More as a response to the fact a similar soccer quiz was featured on jetpunk. Cities that have hosted 7 or more RWC games.

    I got there eventually with 7 secs remaining. The city listed last was the final one I needed. Just as well I got that one as I've been to RWC games there myself. 🙂

    I spelt it wrong, after going through a bunch of other cities from the same country.

    I was surprised another city from that country wasn't on the list.

    @booboo pretty happy with my efforts to get all the back-ups considering I was overseas and only saw the final on tv. Struggled most with lock and 2nd 5

    I seem to have had to updated this a lot! 50 cap All Blacks forwards.

    I got all but his toughest SA opponent within 2 mins. I would never have gotten that player as it wasn't who I thought it would be - well before my time.

    There's a Springbok lock who was a major rival as well. Was wondering whether or not to add him as well.

    Happy to add more questions to this one if needs be, really want to do this particular topic justice.

    @Rugger-Quizzes That's who I was referring to.

    You could include the number of All Black games.

    Amazed I hadn't done this one before. Most tries in all games for the All Blacks.

    https://www.jetpunk.com/user-quizzes/83115/most-tries-in-all-matches-for-the-all-blacks

    Cut off was 40 tries, amazing to see 2 forwards on the list.
