Anyone for a quiz?

Post by robrulz5 »

Seeing as there is no football on at the moment I thought we could all test our knowledge by doing a quiz. I'll start with the first question and the first correct answer can ask the nect question.

Essendon and St.Kilda played in an Elimination final in 1972 at VFL/Waverley Park. What milestone was this for the ground at the time?

Pretty sure his seniors comeback was versus St.Kilda, but I'll have a stab in the dark about the reserves and say Richmond

seniors correct.

Actually, dont worry about the reserves one, I may be wrong. Im sure it was round 5 vs Footscray at Whitten.

As a second part of the question then, who made their debut that day? (Rnd 5 Whitten/Western Oval)
