No one? Maybe I'm overestimating the union nerdism on the site.

Ok, a clue as I'm off to bed shortly: he's one of Turb's fellow conutrymen but his name makes him sound like he belongs in a male voice choir.

Hmm... I'll work it out the long-winded way.

John Gallagher - joined ABs on EOYT to France
Kieran Crowley - had played prior to 1987 and maybe a Cavalier?
John Kirwan - didn't go on tour and was a Baby Black
Craig Green - went on Cavaliers tour
Terry Wright - debutant?
Joe Stanley - Baby Black
Warwick Taylor - Cavaliers
Bernie McCahill - debutant
Grant Fox - Cavaliers
Frano Botica - Baby Black but didn't play in the RWC
David Kirk - Baby Black
Bruce Deans - debutant
Wayne Shelford - Cavalier
Zinzan Brooke - debutant
Michael Jones - debutant
Mark Brooke-Cowden - maybe a Baby Black? Not sure on him
Andy Earl - prior experience?
Alan Whetton - Cavalier
Gary Whetton - Cavalier
Albert Anderson - Cavalier
John Drake - neither, but came back for 1987, I think
Steve McDowell - Cavalier
Richard Loe - debuted on the EOYT to France
Andy Dalton - Cavalier
Sean Fitzpatrick - Baby Black

I'm missing one in the squad... anyone?
So the Baby Blacks were: Joe Stanley, John Kirwan, David Kirk, and Sean Fitzpatrick. Would say Mark Brooke-Cowden too, but I'm not totally sure.

I guess the lack of a smiley meant you missed the underlining point of that comment. Your not going to get the general rugby fan to guess or work out the trivia if they are all about the All Blacks, i think there has been two question not about then so far.

Yeah, that's right - three of the buggers.

I think it's been half and half so far hasn't it? Can't help it if the All Blacks are such a prominent team in world rugby.... :cool:
