wrong family and wrong era.

Thats correct St Craig, but we still need the "Third" Elliott brother. Seems harder to name than the 4th & 5th Marx brother.

We still need the third "Elliott" and his number, and Robert Elliotts correct number.

Very close Davo, does anyone else want to have a crack before I assess the neatest most correctest entry.

Who were the lesser known brothers of the following players and what numbers did they wear?

Russell Greene
Gary Sidebottom
Jeff Sarau
Glen Elliott & Robert Elliott
Geoff Cunningham

Jim Frances

Ross Smith

I think we should invoke the "24 Hour Rule" on this one. Open Slather.

Anyone got a question?

Two donuts is correct.

Your hook. BWARAO

Still on the same theme.

How many posessions did Frankie get on debut and how many more games did he play that year?

Some memories of that game. 1. It was Frankie Pecketts first game although I dont think he came on until the last qtr. 2. I made the statement that I would drink two cans of VB per quarter for the rest of the season. True story except I am sure its not the answer you are looking for. 3. "Kick S...

1983 for the 1984 season.

I remember seeing the Doc in the outer at the Junction Oval making notes in about 1983. I think we may have won that game with big Max Crow pulling down everything that came his way.

Allan Davis took over when the doc took ill in 87. Was it davo?

57?

Correct Weight St.Fid. Your hook.

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.

Another logical guess but no cigar.

St Fidelius wrote:Just a guess...

seeing he had red hair, maybe "bluey"

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

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

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...

I will go for Rod Owen. He was kicking the odd bag of goals for us back then.

Was it the streak when Plugger returned from injury in 1991? I think he kicked about 12 & 10 in his first two back as we mauled Adelaide & then Brisneyland.

May have been the nine game streak in 1997, we had some sizeable wins during that ride.

Did we win Reserves premierships in those years?

I think you might be wrong there Selhurst Saint... Optus Oval is in Carlton North, Parkville is across the road (Royal Pde) On the basis that the "Baby Poos" play in Carlton North and own 20% of shares in North Melbourne they perhaps should play under that name. According to their website...
