My Latest All Blacks Quiz
-
Test in Sydney reminded me to do an update on this quiz. Defeats by city. Sydney by far our unhappiest hunting ground.
-
Also did this one today. Australian RWC cities. https://www.jetpunk.com/user-quizzes/83115/australian-cities-that-have-hosted-a-rugby-world-cup-game
Was tossing up whether to do grounds as well. Ballymore and Concord Oval are two of my favourites!

1986 Wallabies winning team on Eden Park.
10/15 for this one. I knew the no.8 but couldn't spell his name correctly.
I missed, 15, 11, 8, 6 and 3.

Updated Top All Blacks score against each opponent.
-
Hyphenated All Blacks quiz.
I suspect given current trends I may have to update this one frequently in future!

I didn't get the 1932-34 player.
Just as well the abbreviations worked as answers.
Edit: why is a player from the 1980s more well known than 3 current players?
Because there weren't as many back then ... and we're all ageing.

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)

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.

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

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.
