  Cloudy, Grant Batty is correct.

 Williams played 113 times for New Zealand including 38 Tests.  Try googling Wikipedia 1962 New Zealand rugby union tour of Australia for the last one .

Got it. They beat Northern New South Wales 103 - 0. They must have still been annoyed at losing to new South Wales earlier in the tour!
I should have got Grant Batty. He toured South Africa in 1976 and was one of my favourite All Blacks. A small fiery winger with a David Boon-like moustache. Not sure if he can be compared to Rupeni Caucaunibuca because he is about half Caucau's size!

Awesome, the answer to question #1 is Ross Cullen. Question #5 has me baffled. Tell us which country plays its tests on a thoroughfare? The answer is not something silly like Lansdowne Road is it?

 Ireland was the last one Rooinek and  my apologies to Blobok for the misspelling. Reminds me of a message a man received from his neighbour...


'Sorry sir, I am using your wife… day and
night..
when you are not present at home… In fact,
much
more than you do.
I confess this now because I am feeling
very
guilty. Hope you will accept my sincere
apologies.
The man shot his wife..
A few minutes later he received another
message:
Sorry sir, a spelling mistake ..

The last question is bit weak in that case, Awesome. Apart from the fact that Ireland play some of their games at Croke Park these days, Lansdowne Road has been renamed Aviva Stadium and even when it was Lansdowne Road, that was named after an adjacent street so it's not like they played on a thoroughfare.
