I used to write quizzes for the old Worcester forum, though whether anyone read them I don't know. Anyway, I've omitted all (except one) of the non-rugby questions and and all of the "just Wuss" ones and added some more, so here's something to occupy those readers stuck at home. Some are easy, and of course all can be looked up, but what would be the point? The last question has nothing at all to do with Rugby but I like it and I'm in charge, so there. DM me if you're stuck on anything.

1. All the current Premiership clubs were founded in the second half of the 19th century, but which is the oldest?
2. And the youngest?
3. What game was founded by Ned Haig from the Scottish border town of Melrose in 1883?
4. What was unusual – in fact, unique – about the 1973 Five Nations competition?
5. Who was the top points scorer in the 2019 six nations?
6. Who are the current (March 2020) French Top 14 title holders?
7. Who made three appearances at hooker for Leicester Tigers during the 1991/92 season before retiring to be a teacher?
8. What year did Bill McLaren retire from commentating for the BBC?
9. Who made his rugby union debut for England in 1975, in Australia, and eight days later played cricket for Gloucestershire against Middlesex?
10. Who played number eight for Cambridge in the Varsity Matches of 1976, 1977 and 1978?
11. Name the two clubs that legendary English prop Fran Cotton played for?
12. Which country won the last ever Five Nations Championship (in 1999)?
13. Which retired centre has uniquely played for both England and New Zealand in international matches?
14. What is still used in the opening game of every Rugby World Cup tournament?
15. Which player with 51 caps has played for England at scrum half, fly-half, fullback and wing?
16. How many points did London Welsh score in their relegation year?
17. In Union, which international team name was first used in 1924?
18. Which England cricket captain was capped for England at rugby?
19. Which rugby international won junior Wimbledon in 1966?
20. As Prime Minister, Arthur Balfour could arguably be said to have been the sole begetter of the current Middle East crisis, but in many years earlier, in 1874, he had a different claim to fame. His chum Walter Wingfield had invented a game which he called Sphairistike. What alternative name did Balfour come up with for it?
