OK... Ill post the first question, whoever answers correctly first will post the next question, whoever answers that question correctly will post the next question... and so on and so on!!!

In '96, a 26 year old Nathan Burke played his 200th senior game in that August. He was the fourth youngest player ever to reach the milestone. Name two of the three younger players.

Good Luck!!!

I'm taking inspiration from Rix's first game...

How many AFL players have kicked a goal with their first kick?

mhhmm shame Rixey's was really a point!!
goodluck!!

(I'll take the number closest to the answer...took me for ever to get a rough number!!)

They should only play AFL games now when it's raining. Slow games of footy are so much better to watch.

ding ding ding...
Up until 2001, 89 players (known cases only) have scored a goal with their first kick in a senior game in VFL/AFL history, starting with Essendon’s Jack Kirby in 1911.
...your turn :P

Going back to this question.

Who was the free against?

From memory he played only one season, came from the country (Ballaarat?), wore 47 and had the same surname as someone involved in a famous grand final incident.

I'll pass it back to corr for now and take an option later

I found who wore 46 in that year- Knew him actually But not 47 Not sure about the name being invoolved in a final incident :?:

Was it Nettlefold?

I think the incident wasn't a GF incident.

It was a PF incident...deliberate out of bounds..Fitz v Haw

Not Nettlefold.
This guy only played 6 games, all in 1984.
From North Ballarat.
Can't be 100% sure about the number.
But definitely the same surname as someone involved in a famous grand final monent.
