Rugby World Cup Quiz

[TRF_heineken]

Okay, So I thought while traffic is relatively slow at the moment, why don't we get a Rugby World Cup Quiz going.

Here's how it works:

I will start with a question. Then whoever answers it correctly, will get to ask the next question. The person asking the question will need to confirm whether or not the answer is correct before a following question gets asked.

So here we go:

Correct.
He captained SA against England in June 1994 at Loftus. SA lost 32-15.
He wasn't selected for the second test at Newlands.
He represented Oz in the 1999 WC quarter final against Wales in Cardiff.
Oz won 24-9.
That was his last cap.

Fine player , I remember him in that qf did he replace kepu

Yeah seem to remember Kefu got a ban so Strauss replaced him.

I think he moved back to SA after 99 and has a wine farm around western cape area.
