My second name is the extension of the first name of an opera singer. However, I am better known by my 2nd name not the 1st. I have a relative who played and scored in the world cup and I gained 4 caps for my country but not all in the same sport.

Can't believe I got 2 in a row!! P.m me when you've guessed on here so I'll check!!

Do you get he feeling we're being hussled?

by prop_lyd Sat May 26, 2012 7:14 pm

Haha! I thought I'd write it so it may confuse a few people! I was just lucky with the last 2, am happy to put up extra clues at some point!!

1. I was 20 when I got my first cap.

2. I was 23 when I captained my country for the first time.

3. My middle name is Hugh.

4. Some people are starting to say that I am one of the greatest ever captains and internationals.

by Rava Mon May 28, 2012 11:18 am

Sorry Glas cider

I am 25 tomorrow.
Even though I am considered to be one of the best in my position I have yet to be capped at full international level. I played for the Baa Baa's on my birthday last year.

Ok then, one off the top of my head.

I am a former international player who played for my country before ever playing a 1st team game for my club.

I have been in trouble in the past with the Police.

I have played for 2 teams who are great rivals.

He played for England on their North American tour before ever playing for Bath's 1st team.

I have achieved something notable with my club.
My father won All-Ireland GAA titles in the fifties.
In 2007 I gave an interesting talk to my country's opponents.

I am a computer programmer by trade

I was born in one country, my brother in another, hence we have caps for different countries

We play for the same club team now tho, near a beautiful coast. Originally we played for different club teams in another country, both in the north of that country

Our father was an international basketball player

by **Biltong** Mon May 28, 2012 4:14 pm

OK, here is a tougher one.

I represented my province in first class rugby and cricket, I was a scrum half and a spin bowler, I represented the Springboks in 1 test against England

Hmmm, pretty sure it's not the Tagicakibaus, the Yachvilis or the Bachops. Headscratch

by Pete C (Kiwireddevil) Mon May 28, 2012 4:18 pm

Or the Umagas or So'oialos
