Post subject: | Quick quiz |
Here are a few curly ones to keep idle minds occupied until the start of the footy. No prizes, just glory. 1. Carlton first played Collingwood (and beat them) on 7 May 1892. What was the gesture made by our club after the game which has surely never been repeated? 2. Which player was in the final twenty one listed for the 1970 Grand Final for Carlton, but didn't make the team? 3. How much prizemoney from sponsor W.D. & H.O. Wills did the Blues receive for winning the premiership in 1970? 4. Who played their fiftieth game in the 1975 First Semi-final? 5. Two ex-Collingwood players have coached Carlton. Who were they? 6. 16yo John Masters was on the ground representing Carlton and wearing the jumper on Elimination Final day at VFL Park in 1977. Why? 7. Which future Carlton star played in Prahran's 1978 VFA premiership team? 8. Which Carlton premiership player finished second in the club's reserve grade goalkicking in 1982? 9. Who broke their jaw in Round 14 of 1987, but was able to recover in time to play in our flag of that year? 10. What VFL team did Carlton legend Peter Dean support up until he was 12yo, before switching his allegiance to Carlton? |

Good questions. I can start off a few for the quiz. 7 -re- Prahran player was the fabulous Wayne Johnston 5- re- who were the ex-Collingwood players as coach - Dan Minogue and Percy Rowe. 4- having a punt on that one. Rod Ashman? 3- how much prizemoney? not enough. The remaining questions I will let others answer. |

Was it Bruce Doull? re 21st man for the 1970 g/f. Also, was it Ashman for the 50th game at 75 1st semi? or someone else? |
