The ULTIMATE trivia post!!!

Was pura milk? I think we had sponsors before that. I remember them being sponsored by Snow deli in the 80's I think.

How do you manage to come up with such hard questions?

[St Fid Jnr]

im sorry
i was looking at old photos

i was also lookiing at record cover in a book that had player from every team in 1983 and the saints and south melbrne had no sponsor

[hankey bannister]

Something tells me maybe around 87 or 88 we had Snow Deli.
But when you get my age you become very forgetful

[St Fid Jnr]

Ok thank you hankey and in 1991 tha sponser was phillip morris

I still like to know if snowdeli was the first in 1984 there was no sponcer as well

[hankey bannister]

A question for you.
Who did the Saints play in their 1st game at Waverley, who won and by how much?
I don't think this will be too hard for you.

[St Fid Jnr]

R11V Essendon 15-Jun-1970

Saints 1.1 4.7 6.13 8.21- 69

Essendon 2.4 4.5 6.9 8.9 - 57

crowd 21105

but i cheated, it was on the net

[hankey bannister]

And I was there. It was a shocking game.
Checking on the net isn't really cheating,
It's learning. Your question. I still have
some time before I go out.

[St Fid Jnr]

what former St Kilda player who coached Quambatook in 1961 and was recruted there

went on to play in the 1966 GF

he has moved back to Quambatook to teach at Quambatook group school

[hankey bannister]

I was going to say Jim Wallis but dont think he
played in the gf.
Are you a country lad?

[St Fid Jnr]

Hi st Fid jnr

[riccardo]

What St kilda coach was first to used a modern mobile comminication device?

and in what year?

Alan Jeans used a walkie talkie to communicate with runners in the early '60's (1961/62?)

The League barred the innovation because they said the ariel could injure someone.

[St Fid Jnr]

Yes mr riccardo u r right but it was in 1964

Essendon made five changes to the side that played on Saturday. Out went Chris Daniher, Mark Thompson, Scott Cummings, Che Cockatoo-Collins and Ben Doolan; and in came James Hird (much to the protest of St Kilda), Stephen Alessio, Danny Morgan, David Calthorpe and for his first ever game, and becoming the 1000th player ever to play for the Dons was Justin Blumfield.

Robert Harvey 3 votes
