Without looking at any other posts.

1. Stirling Mortlock
2. Doug Howlett and Joe Roff
3. Andrew Merhtens
4. James O'Conner
5. Bulls, 2007
6. Chiefs, 2009
7. George Gregan

[HB]

Now after reading the other posts I realise that 7. should be Nathan Sharpe, and Burke might hold one of 1 or 3. 6 is probably wrong as well.

3.5 from 7 (and your second post would not have improved your score.)

Corrected: 2.5 but your second post would gain one more with Sharpe

One's I'm absolutely sure of:
1. Carter
2. Howlett
5. Bulls v Reds
7. Sharpe.

So;
3. Mehrtens, although I'm certain Carter overtook Mehrts.
6. ?
4. If it's not Bieber, see 6.

I'll up your score to 5. Not saying which ones though.

See your first post

3. Carter
4. JOC

100% on all these (looked them up about a few weeks ago) I'm guessing no one will get the away win :/

[Joachim Sanchez]

1 Carter
2 Habana
3 Carter
4 O'Connor
5 Bulls vs. Reds, 2007
6 Blues @ Hurricanes, 2002

Update: I am going back to your answers after further research. There is some contention over the answer to number 7. I'm not sure of the criteria taken but suspect there may be a difference between counting team sheet appearances and on field caps. Many sites quote Sean Hardman as ahead of Sharpe yet Sharpe was presented with a recognition last year for most Super Rugby Caps so I'll go with that one as being correct.
One of the other answers I had was incorrect as not having been updated after 2011.

No wonder this was hard!!

Check back on your scores. No one has still to put all 7 correct in one post.
