easy one... in Richie Benaud's greatest XI, where was keith miller in the order... and what was the adjustment darren berry made to his side in relation to Miller in Benauds side???
The first time Alex Jesaulenko coached the Saints resulted in a draw against Richmond at the MCG.
Who was the Saint who took what should have been the match saving mark late in the game and then played on with a handball that resulted in the goal that tied the scores?
and who kicked most goals for the saints that day?
Not correct but the handball was a player of similar vintage and skill to Barks.
Goal kicker is far more obscure. He came from another club where he had been mooted as the "next big thing" but had bad knees. This was by far the best game he ever played for us.

I think they bent the rules somewhat to allow VFL players to don the Big V, I'm sure I read somewhere that stars like Glenndinning and Hudson lined up for the Big V though they weren't Vic by birth.
Pretty sure Sidey did play for Vic, too.

1 notable thing was I think it was Jason Cripps first game back in ages and he kicked the first goal and he ended up with the most possessions for the saints 28
and maybe Damien Ryans last game for the saints.
Don't wait for the light at the end of the tunnel to appear, run down there and light the bloody thing yourself!
It was Malcolm Blights last game as coach, crippa made his comeback after 3 years out of the game and we lost by 97 points.
Riewoldt and Chris Oliver both debuted as well.
