    <p>Interesting quiz actually, a couple of the players on the list were in the 1971 Lions team.</p>

    <p>That one was hard, I got 8/13 and completely missed 63 which is quite obvious.</p>

    <p>There is a player who scored 4 tries on test debut.</p>

    <p>Damn, so I'm not a genius! </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Did the 4 tries on debut player score those tries against the country he was born in? And was it not his test debut, but only his test debut for the ABs?</p>

    <p>Argh 12/13. That hint certainly helped.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>I got the last one (England 50) eventually as well but had to stop the clock....</p>

    <p>Yep.  The quiz is for ABs only so surely he qualifies.  Rugby Museum states it is an AB record so good enough for me. :)</p>

    <p>Front Row Forwards with 50 or more caps.</p>

    <p>Was thinking 40 or more to make it harder, but it would have meant including my least favorite All Black of all time (no not Richard Loe)</p>

    <p>Got that one with only 30 seconds to spare - but, 66 gave me a great deal of trouble. I'm struggling on the least favorite bonus point question.</p>

    <p>It's amazing how quickly players accumulate test caps today.  I got the front rowers with plenty of time to spare.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Only 7/9 for the RWC appearances.  Missed 2 players with 14 appearances each, and was surprised who was one of them.  A good quiz UHB.</p>

    <p>Loe played 49 tests so just missed out in the quiz list. </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Meeuws - 42 tests</p>
    <p>McDowell - 48 tests</p>
    <p>I'm sure there are others.</p>

    <p>Ben Franks is on 41 - I guess he's a possible if UHB doesn't like a few stupid penalties, but he seems mostly harmless to me. </p>

    <p>Franks is my vote, a Tasmanian born Ta$man product who doesn't get held to account for his stupidity because of the colour of his skin. BANG, I just played the race card. ;)</p>

    <p>I missed 66 - spent too much time trying to remember Tialata and the Akl guy who I still cant remember from same era.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>I did however get the World Cup one with 14 secs to spare</p>

    <p>That's the one. Was never a fan even though he is from the Hutt Valley. Struggled a lot with injury though which is why his form was so up and down.</p>

    <p>Not a big fan of his either. When they decided to put two props on the bench for tests, well, Mr B. Franks was always going to be surplus to requirements.</p>

    <p>I'd completely forgotten about Tialata, such was the quality of his AB career.  I'm surprised he started in 24 of his 43 tests.</p>

    <p>50 or more points at RWCs.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>As a hint, if you can divide by 5 it's probably all tries (with 2 exceptions)</p>
