The ULTIMATE trivia post!!!

That guy fitted right in at Collingwood by the sounds of it. He certainly would now anyway.
Just on the Winmar thing, he temporarily quit the club for some reason.
Was it because of money, or did he just lose interest?

[St Fid Jnr]

yes, Nicky Winmar went on strike for more money

well done

your turn

[HarveysDeciple]

In Round 22 of 2001 The Saints beat the Hawks in a game famous for Barry Hall's after the siren goal.
But in that game one Saint gathered 32 posessions and another pulled in 13 marks.
Who were these 2 players?

[St Fidelius]

Brett Moyle - 32 possessions

Matthew Capuano - 13 Marks

[HarveysDeciple]

Correct St.Fid.
I pass the baton on to you.

[St Fidelius]

Ok, I got one..

In 1993, who was our leading ruckman? By that I mean, what St. Kilda ruckman had more disposals, marks, tackles and hitouts that year………..

[Marchin' In]

Laurence Bingham?

[St Fidelius]

Yep

Well Done...


Here are the stats.....



Laurence Bingham – 14 games
191 Disposals (avg 13.6) - 69 Marks (avg 4.9) – 20 Tackles (avg 1.4) 178 Hit Outs (avg 12.7)

Peter Everitt – 13 games
166 Disposals (avg 12.8 ) – 54 Marks (avg 4.2) – 6 Tackles (avg 0.5) 122 Hit Outs (avg 9.4)

Bingham and Everitt played together in 7 matches

Where Bingham had a total of 113 Disposals - 39 Marks – 10 Tackles – 91 Hit Outs
And Everitt had a total of 61 Disposals – 18 Marks – 4 Tackles – 37 Hit Outs

Bingham came to us in 1991 from Hawthorn (we traded selection 22 – Simon Crawshay)

I dont know if this is right but.....

Bingham was only 20/21 years old when he came to us, but played his one and only year of senior football in 1993. He was gone the following year, at the age of 24/25 years.


Your turn

[Marchin' In]

In what year was Bill Mohr the leading goalkicker, and how many goals did he kick?

[St Fidelius]

1936

He kicked 101 goals

[Marchin' In]

Yep. Your turn.

[St Fidelius]

Round 5, 2002 (2 questions)

A much undermanned St Kilda side played the Sydney Swans.

This game was a very defensive one (the “floodâ€

[Marchin' In]

1) Troy Schwarze.
2) Jason Blake.

[St Fidelius]

I'll give it to ya

you were right with Troy Schwarze, but in the last quarter Stephen Milne kicked probably the best goal ever - he pounced on a ball spilt by O'Loughlin, and took three bounces and ran inside 50 and tried to dymmy to evade a tackle. He slipped and fell to his knee (as he does), bounced back upb again, turned and snapped a great goal.

BUTthe othe answer I was looking for was Daniel Wulf he intercepted a mark in the forward line and played on and attempted a banana kick from only 15 metres out on an angle and the ball hit the post and the scores were level.

Nick DalSanto had a chance after the final siren and had a shot from 65 metres out but it landed in the goal square..


Your turn (Marchin' In please respond to my last PM re e-mail address for additions to your new site )

[Marchin' In]

Wulf, that's it! Damn. I remember he ran in and kicked it right into the right hand post.

Whio was the first Saint to win a Brownlow?

(I know, pretty easy question, but I'm tired :X)

[St Fid Jnr]

Colin Watson

[riccardo]

Colin Watson - 1925

[saintbrat]

can I butt in with a question-- ( I know some will say she is always butting in)

I found beauty?

[saintbrat]

which team did former saints player chris stone captain in 2004?

and what other connections did the team have with the saints of 2003?

[St Fidelius]

Good question saintbrat

Is Chris Stone the captain of the Brussels Saints Aussie Rules Football Club, which is part of an International Football series involving Spain, France, Austria, Netherlands, Switzerland and Germany?

And the St Kilda Football Club provided the 2003 style jumpers and gear to the Brussels Saints

[saintbrat]

Brussels Saints

The 1915 VFL season began the day before the first Anzacs landed in Gallipoli. While news about the bloody slaughter would take weeks to reach Melbourne the St. Kilda football club, as a sign of patriotic fervour, commenced the season by changing their colours from their traditional red, white and black - also the colours of the German military insignia - to red, yellow and black; the colours of the Belgian national flag.

That ancient link between the St. Kilda football club and the country of Belgium will be re-kindled in 2004 with the creation of the Brussels Saints football club.

The Saints will be sporting jumpers supplied by St.Kilda F.C. - gear that was worn in AFL matches in 2003. Shorts, socks, balls and bags have also been supplied and Brussels captain Chris Stone is a past St. Kilda player.

The first match will be played on the 22nd of May against the Paris Cockerels and will mark the first ever known match of Australian rules football in Belgium. The location for the match is the Elephant pitch in Tervuren - close to the Africa museum and the British School of Brussels - at 15h00.



didn't think I'd trick the St fid's - spot on

[St Fid Jnr]

In 2002

What round did Everitt play his first game for the season?

[St Fid Jnr]

well done your turn

[jed]

Since 1993, six different players have worn No. 16 in senior games for the Saints.

Who are they and who played the most games in that number in that period.
