the answer too who was the tallest player too kick 50 or more in a season for stkilda is...............the big Gee Train.

Scott did kick 53gls in 1980 but only 48 of them were for us the other 5 were for Hawthorn

heres a question too wrap this part of the quiz up
Scott was the leading goalkicker for stkilda with 48gls in 1980 and 45gls in 1982 hes the 2nd tallest player too be the leading goalkicker in a season so whos the tellest

I'm fairly sure everitt was never the leading goal kicker at the saints

peter everitt with 40 gls in 2000 at 203cms is the answer

I'll go...

1. Black Duck - Ian Synman (the only player never to swap his jumper at the ground, but after peer group pressure traded jumpers with #5 Terry Waters two days later.)

2. Coconut - Neil Roberts

Well...the trivia thread seems to have gone off the rails...

Eamon has gone AWOL... St Fid - you better ask a Q to put us back on the track.

BTW, for those newer posters, anybody can play this game but read page 1 first (you only get to ask your Q after you have got the existing Q correct) - ie no jumping in with your Q otherwise we'll get all messed up again.

Over to you St Fid.

I'll just jump in with a question.
What was unique about the 1960's in terms of the premierships won?
Think teams that won them.
It is unique to the 1960's alone.
And no its not because of our only flag.
Its a bit lateral, so I apologise.

terry smith rules · Mon 12 Sep 2005 5:52pm

I would say that as a decade it had the most number of diff teams win a flag

7 in total

Melb
Hawth
Ess
Geel
St. k
Rich
carl

as for other ?

guess for A. Davis as little black duck, youngest player in team

Sainterone · Post: # 143956Post **Sainterone** » Mon 12 Sep 2005 6:24pm

All of the premiers were Melbourne based?....

Seriously, one interesting fact is that all of the premiers (except one) won every one of their finals games.

Most premiers won in straight sets, however:

essendon (1965) won 3/3 and richmond (1969) won 3/3.

Only the Saints were able to lose a final and come back to win the flag.

Sainterone · Post: # 143963Post **Sainterone** » Mon 12 Sep 2005 6:35pm

Also...

The 1960's is the only decade where none of the premiers have gone back-to-back.

St Fidelius · Mon 12 Sep 2005 7:53pm

OK ...

Iv'e got one....

Round 2 1991...

What club record did Tony Lockett achieve?
