Who am I?

First topic message reminder :

New thread, old one has run its course,

I played 4 tests for SA and scored 6 tries in my debut match.

Nope....

John Taylor - refused to tour SA due to apartheid?

Kevin Maggs?

The one and only Maggs, obviously

I am an IRB Hall of Fame inductee and generally recognised as one of the greatest in my position.
I only played club rugby in the country of my birth.
I captained my country 34 times

hugo Porta

Tiger is correct . Hugo Porta it is.

I see now that Rives isn't even in the blooming hall of fame

He's in the International Hall of Fame

Renowned as one of my country's great players, I wore the number 6 jersey for them on 29 occasions, scoring 3 tries.
I played for the lions in 4 tests, captaining them once in a match we won.
For the next 3 seasons I captained my country.
I played my last test when I was 27, and retired from rugby two months later.
I have commentated during my country's greatest ever era.

Cliff Morgan is correct. When he played, Wales numbered their shirts in from full Back (1) to Front row (15). So the half backs would be 6 and 7.

Excellent LT

Well done Glas

htf can a bloke get this post deleted from my posts?

My current option is to change it to 'Watch this topic for replies'.

And believe me I've tried a few times - and I've swung both ways.

But whichever way I swing the posts keep on coming in.

Portnoy - think your on the wrong thread mate.

I suggest PM a moderator if you have an issue.

Perhaps you're best post ever, Portnoy

I am resurrecting this thread.

I have played for and coached the same Club side.
I have coached two clubs to league success.
My father was an International in another sport.

No one prepared to have a go?

Where's Rodders got to?

Dean Richards?

Phillipe San-Andre?

No.

Kingsley Jones.

Mark Ring?

No Glas, neither of those.

Eric Elwood?

Connor O Shea?

Michael Bradley?

Declan Kidney?

Wayne Smith.

No one has got it yet I'm afraid. I'll see if I can put in a clue that wont make it too easy.

Mark McCall? He has two of the 3 at least.

Someone else can come up with the question when I;'m right

Well done Thomond.

I have capatained Ireland and senior clubs played for
I have played in one world cup

Ronan O'Gara

He does qualify but not the fella I was thinking of. Will edit to say one world cup.

Leo Cullen?

Leo Cullen

Feckit LondonTiger!!

Yep that's the man, LT you got it first so have at it.

I feel cheated Thomond. You picked a flawed question with multiple answers!!

I represented my country over 100 times, and was captain 35 times. However that was not at rugby. So why am I in this thread? Well I have reffed at two RWCs.

Sucks to be you Stag, I actually changed it from "one" to a as I thought it would be too obvious.



LT I have no idea actually Rolland played cricket I think so will go for him.
