The ULTIMATE trivia post!!!

[St Fidelius]

OK,

Round 6 – 1978

St. Kilda kicked their highest score 31:18 – 204 against Melbourne

Then in Round 13 the same year the Bulldogs kicked 33:15 against us, to register their own record match tally, and we lost by 106 points.


Thirteen players played in both matches for the Saints

Try naming at least eight of them, if you get the thirteen, well done…..

[Selhurst Saint]

Here's Guessing,

Barker
Tweedale
Lofts
Young
Hunt
Breen
Booth
Dunne
Sidebottom
Colling
Muir
O'Dea
Perovic
Gellie
Greene
O'Keefe
Cunningham
Carter

Ditterich was probably suspended/missing by the time we played Footscray.

I think Mark Carlon may have played against Melbourne but probably lost his spot by Footscray.

[St Fidelius]

Sellhurst Saint, I'll have to give you this one. Well done

Unfortunately on my re count I only have 9 of the thirteen names listed

Trevor Barker
Barry Breen
Russell Greene
Val Perovic
Garry Sidebottom
George Young
Rex Hunt


Carl Ditterich
Jeff Sarau

Your turn....

[HarveysDeciple]

Got one for us Selhurst??

[Selhurst Saint]

Keeping it in the same era, what was the nickname of "Russell Tweedale".

[St Fidelius]

Just a guess...

seeing he had red hair, maybe "bluey"

[Selhurst Saint]

Logical guess St.Fid but not correct. There is actually quite an interesting coincidence with his nickname that I have only just realsied.

Was it Tweedledee" or "Tweedledum" after the Lewis Carrol characters, by any chance?

Another logical guess but no cigar.

[St Fidelius]

Is it something like tweepee.....

because he peed over the bonnet of the coach's car when he was with the Bulldogs......

I hadn't heard that story. That would have been a great question in itself.

Clue: The nickname is the same as a player who wore the same number some years after him.

[St Fidelius]

No 23 buckets

[Selhurst Saint]

Correct Weight St.Fid. Your hook.

[St Fidelius]

OK...


During the years of the Big V.....(Victoria State Side)

What St Kilda player is number 2 of all time to play the most senior games in the VFL without ever playing for the big V

[HarveysDeciple]

Gary Colling?

[St Fidelius]

Gary Colling?

Yes HD, well done

Garry Colling played 265 games and did not wear the Big V

Your turn....

PS... The number one player with the most games without wearing the Big V was Rod Carter 293 matches

[HarveysDeciple]

It was Yipper who actually gave me that answer.
But he is away from the comp so I will ask the question.

In 1991 St.Kilda was a part of the first ever game at North Hobart Oval in Tasmania.
Who was our opponent and what was the result?

[St Fidelius]

R13 St Kilda 4.0 10.2 14.5 17.9 (111) dftd Fitzroy 2.4 3.6 8.7 15.8 (98) North Hobart Jun 16 (Sun)

We Played Fitzroy Saints 17.9 (111) defeated Fitzroy 15.8 (98)

[HarveysDeciple]

That is correct St.Fid.
Over to you for the next question.

[St Fidelius]

OK

What round and year was our record home attendance?

and against what side?

[saintman666]
