Anyone for a quiz?

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

Not sure where McMullin ended up, and not sure if he actually played for another club in the one season. Grant Fowler left Essendon halfway through 1983, went to Hawthorn and played 2 games (or so) and then retired......for memory!

In 92, McMullin played for us and Collingwood. He played 3 for us and 1 for collingwood (or the other way around). I think that was the last time the mid-season draft was in.

Rosso is spot on. McMullin played for us against Collingwood early in the season and his 1st game for the Filth was against us the next time we played.

:lol: OK Rosso, I'll refer to the 80's so you can struggle....

A former Essendon player who had very limited opportunities at senior level, and only played a handful of games. However, I played in a mid season "night match" where I set the world on fire with an amazing 8 goal performance. Regarded as a "one hit wonder" and never repeated that freak performance. Who am I?

Who am I?

I made my Essendon debut the same game as one of the Essendon all time greats made his. I played at 3 clubs with the majority of them at my 1st club. Essendon was my 2nd club. I spent one year at Essendon and played less than 10 game for us. My brother also played AFL football.

Early 90s is the timeline.
