Anyone for a quiz?

Talk about everything Essendon. Past, Present and Future if it's about the Bombers this is the place to be.

I remember going to a game at Windy Hill in the early 80s when I think he kicked 8 against Fitzroy, so I'll go with that as my answer.

Just as well I threw Daisy into the mix, otherwise I may have had to give you the points there.

No, think early careers but not as early as junior.

Phew! I knew Kilpatrick, Bailey and Williams had worn 42 but couldn't remember Somerville wearing it, but there you go......

OK, which player played in 5 grand finals without a win and then played in a grand final for Essendon which also ended disasterously, making it 6 heartbreaking attempts for no success?
