I am being Presumptuous but will get the first question after the 2000 - great work guys and gals

will start with only that because anything more will give it away

Here is my question -

In the 1930's, St Kilda was getting uncomfortable under the iron grip of the St Kilda CC. To which VFA ground did they cast a roving eye with a petition to move there, and why was it eventually rejected?

A wild guess without doin any research...

Toorak Park, Prahran?

riccardo · Post: # 112153Post **riccardo** » Thu 23 Jun 2005 11:45pm

Not quite - although we were at Toorak Park for a year while the soldiers were occupying the Junction during WWII

Time for a hint?

Selhurst Saint · Mon 27 Jun 2005 5:20pm

Brighton? Perhaps the club didn't think there was enough disposable income in the area?

HarveysDeciple · Mon 27 Jun 2005 9:40pm

Springvale? Sandringham?

cowboy18 · Post: # 113803Post **cowboy18** » Mon 27 Jun 2005 11:09pm

Moorabin?

Didn't go because of the high levels of localised rainfall?

OK, I'm back!

Sellhurst has it closest, it has something to do with Brighton the Club, but it wasn't the ground in Brighton.

Anyone with "Football Grounds of Melbourne" just needs to find the page with the above Clubs little penguin badge on it, and you have your answer.

Sainterone · Post: # 115940Post **Sainterone** » Mon 04 Jul 2005 1:31pm

must be a rare book?

Elsternwick Park I think
As to why they didn't move? Ground too far from local supporters?

Selhurst Saint · Mon 04 Jul 2005 2:04pm

Starting to run out of ideas so here goes.

We all love Beer and we all love St.Kilda. What is the current link between "Fosters Brewing Group" and St.Kilda?
