Rugby quiz question

[Darwin]

I would have said Bakkies Botha, but he tends to bypass yellow streight to red. I actually think it's Schalk Burger - but I can tell you how many he's had. At a guess it'd be around 5.

Burger is correct, but the number of yellows is not.

 

[Draggs]

Bakkies has never been red carded.
Burger: I want to say six or seven.

 

[Darwin]

Bakkies has never been red carded.
Burger: I want to say six or seven.

Which one are you going to say then?
Hint: he had 5 yellows in his first 3 years of international rugby....

 

[ZeFrenchy]

For the second one, I'm gonna guess Ben Alexander...

edit: I assumed they were more than one from the original question post (the "how many do they have" part), but now I'm having doubts about it.

I'll go with 6 - I feel that hint is a red herring...

I think it's 7. His last one was in 2009 with the B&I Lions 2nd test for the eye gouging. His debut was in 2003... so he had to have more.

 

[Darwin]

The correct answer is 6 - as Nick worked out my hint wasn't overly helpful

 

[Draggs]

I was going to say six, but after reading your clue it would seem unfair.

Your turn, Nicholas of Aotearoa.

Ok a bit of an easy one, which English player scored two tries within two tests against the All Blacks in 2008.

If I remember correctly that was Topsy Ojo. One of his tries was a 70m+ intercept effort.

Spot on. Yeah - probably the player in the England team I was most excited about, was dropped after the tour.

So Darwin, your turn to be the Quizmaster

 

[Darwin]

Ok another easy one, who scored the first try in the 2011 Rugby World Cup?
