and the lowest crowd for 2007 was at AAmi vs Port.

a similiar thread got us through a couple of months last year and proves to be alittle easier than the Ultimate trivia thread- which requires a good search of history

First question;same as last year
Who kicked the First Saints goal in the 2008 Home and away season ;


Second Question; and again purely for interest (you can answer this one in two ways)
16 saints Played Both 1st round and 22 round - who were they
- or alternately who missed out.

Here's one for you, what player had the biggest break between appearences...

E.g, what was the most games any players missed consecutively, but actually played afterwards...

would have to be X

[nathan000]

My first guess would be X but with him taken i'll go Shane Birss?

[st_Trav_ofWA]

are we correct ???

[saintbrat]

on my checking it was X

so I'll keep this going with a stat that is REALLY easy to find ( after I was wondering any way

which Saints were Suspended in the 2008 season and how many were charged- I guess for bonus kudos name those not suspended.

[st_Trav_ofWA]

if i remember correctly only fizz and kosi missed games

im pretty sure BJ got reported for his strike in the finals and he may have got done for rough play (??) earlyer in the year and dindt joey get a fine for wresleing

[BAM! (shhhh)]

Steven Baker missed the start of the season on suspension too.

[saintbrat]

Correct on Fizz and Kosi
Bakes was actually a charge and suspension from last year,
I haven't checked to see who else was charged
was Lenny one?

St Kilda had just five players charged this year with Justin Koschitzke and Aaron Fiora suspended for one game each.

In stark contrast in 2007, eight Saints were charged and outed for a total of 11 games

i just checked the AFL site we had 6 Joey for wresling BJ for striking and on for Wresling Kosi for rough play and fizz twice for striking
BJ and Joey got fines for their wresling and fiz got off with a rep for his first strike and got a week for the second

[st_Trav_ofWA]

ill keep this thread going ... how many times in 2008 did the Saints come from behind after qtr time to win ??? extra credit for those who can name our biggest come back

[saintbrat]

would best be the Hawthorn game rd 16?

not sure how many others we returned in- without hunting

[i_luv_nick_riewoldt]

I rememeber we came back against kangaroos and hawthorn.

Im pretty sure the carlton game we were struggling at the start! Freo game possibly, adelaide game r21!! Hard to remember!! it's all a blur now!

[saintbrat]

vs Port rd 18- against port were 17 points down 3/4 time.
won by 7

[saintbrat]

any of these close st trav?

new question
which saint was the last to touch the football in play in 2008 and what was his action?

anyone know if Harves got the game ball?

[nathan000]

This is a tough one. I will say Montagna.
