'I hate this one cap wonder tag'

But what a cap! Neville Furlong (he won a second) and Philip Rainey may not have worn the green jersey too often, but they have one thing in common - the experience of facing the All Blacks.

NAME THE last man to score a four-point try for Ireland. The answer's easy: he's also the only man to score a try against the All Blacks with a broken ankle. Neville Furlong remembers his proudest moment on a rugby field clearly. It was 1992 and Ireland were touring New Zealand when, Furlong injured his ankle against Auckland, though he managed to hobble over the line for a try all the same. Eventually his leg became so sore he could barely stand - there was so much strapping on his ankle it went outside and over the boot - but Ireland had used up their substitutes.

"Eventually the two coaches came to a 'gentleman's agreement' and I was replaced," recalls Furlong, "But I was in serious difficulties for the first Test."
