Loewe in 2000.

By the way 2000 - 2005 is the last six seasons.

Oh yeah...well its holidays! I don't have to think if I don't want to!

And yes, Loewe in 2000 is correct.

In the last game of '99 we played and smashed the Eagles after a disappointing second half of the season.

Who did Tim Watson insist that the players sing the club song for at the end of the game?

Luke Beveridge - it was his last game

There has long been a strong rumour that Trevor Barker once had a fling with which famous American singer?

None other than Cher.

Indeed it was, Riccardo.

For all the Melbourne socialites Aaron Hamill pulls these days, it's nothing compared to Barks in his heyday.

During World War II, St Kilda played home games for several years at which venue, and who joined us at the Junction when it was re-opened until thier own ground was available again?

saint66au · Post: # 175813Post **saint66au** » Tue 24 Jan 2006 7:19pm

OK...Umm..Elsternwick Park???

and Id say Melbourne, as the MCG was being used as a base for American soldiers

riccardo · Post: # 175911Post **riccardo** » Wed 25 Jan 2006 8:26am

Sorry, no on both counts Michael.

Melbourne used Punt Road for home games in this period.

During 1942/43 we used the Prahran ground - our record was 5 wins and 7 losses.

Between 1944 and 1946 Sth Melb used the Junction Oval until they moved back to Albert Park. In 1942 and 1943 Sth Melb. had used Optus Oval as their home ground.

St Kilda played home games in Prahan and after the war Fitzroy were the other team to play at junction oval, as they moved from Brunswick St

I believe South Melb were playing at lake side

You are right, Len.

As the VFA was completely in recess, we used Pahrans Toorak Park ground in this period.

when the Junction was vacated by the millitary and we were able to play there again, we were joined there by South as it was closer to thier Lake Oval ground (and a shorter travel for thier supporters) than Princes Park.

Your go.

Here's a Q on goalkickers.

Some of us have been fortunate enough to see the great man (Lockett) play. We now have the G-Train to idolise. Others (Riewoldt, Milne) have kicked big bags recently.

In 2005, Milne kicked 11.0 v brisbane - a mighty special effort.

We all know that Lockett kicked bags of 10 plus (including some bags of 10 plus goals straight).

The Q is - apart from Lockett who is the last Saint to kick (at least) 10 goals straight? When and against who?

Dal_Santos_Gal · Wed 25 Jan 2006 11:37am

1978 George Young
Round 12 against Fitzroy
Kicked 10 goals straight

Sainterone · Wed 25 Jan 2006 11:41am

Well done DSG
George Young was the man back then.
The shame of that game was despite George kicking 10 straight we still got done!!

Your go DSG

We all know that Tony Lockett's first kick at VFL/AFL level resulted in a goal round 4, 1983 and then Stewart Loewe scored 2 goals with his first two kicks.

Question: Who was the next St Kilda after Lockett and loewe to kick a goal with there first kick in VFL/AFL Footy and when was it?
