QUIZ: International Rugby Captains since 2000
After yesterday's quiz that saw most of you get at least 80% of the answers correct, here's a rugby quiz that's a little more challenging!
Similar to the format of a cricket captains quiz we did a few weeks ago, the challenge is to name some international rugby players that have captained their country on 10 or more occasions since 2000.
The countries we are focusing on are: Australia, England, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa and Wales.
The answers are listed chronologically by the date of each player's first captaincy. The hints provided show the number of times each answer captained their country and the dates of their first and last (or most recent) captaincy. Those brackets are important - some of these players are of course still playing but their most recent appearance as captain is still listed as their 'last'.
Only surnames are required so don't worry about wasting time with first names. As always, I have attempted to ensure some misspellings are also correct though and it's worth trying nicknames/just first names if you know them and are really stuck for spelling. If you knew the answer but then find it was a misspelling at the end of the quiz then you can of course count it really!
As always, let us know in the comments how many you managed but please try and avoid spoilers! Similarly, if you haven't yet joined the gang on Twitter and/or Facebook who have been posting screenshots of their results then feel free to get involved - our social media pages are a great place to maintain the bru community while we wait for tournaments to resume.
Instructions: After clicking 'Play' simply type the name of a player that you think is on the list. If correct, the answer will automatically enter the list once you've typed the name. If the answer is incorrect, nothing will happen and you'll need to erase what you've written and try again.
Only surnames are required.
