Rugby World Cup trivia

I'll set the ball rolling. The person with the correct answer puts up the next question, unless they want to pass on that option.

Who was the player from a Home Nations team who played in both the 1987 and 1999 Rugby World Cups (but not the ones inbetween)?

I'd guess someone who went to league in the intervening years. Allan Bateman?

Right idea of thinking. Wrong answer.

BoyBrumby · 05-06-2007, 05:05 AM

Tait then? The Scots wing.

Smudge · 05-06-2007, 05:08 AM

Well done, Chumbabrumber. You're up.

I can only think of rank obvious ones just now. Anyway:

I set a world cup (& world) record on my international debut. Who am I?

Ieuan Evans. For those who don't know about my lack of rugby knowledge, I will be answering Ieuan Evans for every question that I choose to reply to in the off-chance that this will be the correct answer

You're up.
