Sorry CP i don't have a clue.

I could just name Aus teams but there would be no fun in that.

Cronulla and Gold Coast

Somewhat of a trick question as some of the games were in the 1992 Nissan World 7s

New Question for you guys and anyone else.

What was the name of the full back we signed from Widnes and has the same surname as a bus stop in Appley Bridge? He famously lost his contact lens on the pitch at Central park and started searching in the middle of the game.

You had me beat.

How about another one

Syd Abram played for Wigan. He achieved two notbale feats one during his playing career the other after his playing career. The first was a first and thus unique. The second is very rare and only a handful have ever done so.
