But I did.

Booboo got all the easy ones! I can remember easily Naas Botha, Danie Gerber and Ray Mordt among the Bok backs.
There must have been another fullback other than Hewie - Richard and Bevan Wilson and Clive Currie would all be options - but, all might have been done by then.
Murray and Mark Taylor both around that era.
Easy? I'm super proud of Andy Jefferd

From the flankers thread Leicester Rutledge and Geoff Hines wouldn't have been far away.
There was a Southland number 8 Ash somebody, who seems about this era as well.
Hines was 1980?

@ACT-Crusader Garry Whetton started in 1981 and went on to Captain the ABs. Not sure how many games he played that year although do recall he did play at least once against the Boks.
Debut at 21yo in the greatest test match ever played.
No pressure young fulla.

Clue for #18 - was a big prop for his day. Was in the “geriatrics” band of props that played well into their 30s
Ashworth - Booboo already got him.
Yes, it’s Ashworth. Must have missed it
You're just doing a JPR Williams impersonation. He can't remember JA either!
This post needs more love.

How many are we missing?

A good get.
But, he was playing for Glenmark at the time, so I probably would have remembered him!
My main problem is that for the fringe players - I can remember them - but they could have been anything from about 1974-1984.

Not Hemara. He only played on the 85 Argentina tour.

Clue for #34 - played centre and I think to this day still is the only AB to play a test match for the ABs and England….

@act-crusader Jamie Salmon?
-
Clue for #31 - a Nth Auckland prop that only played a handful of mid-weekers on the Europe tour. Good farming stock.
