Ah, finally can post - site the pits tonight!
Figuring they must have been pretty memorable other than their footy to have played 4 & 40 games - although i can't think who.
Thought the 4 gamer could have been Bill Cosgrove, 'cept he died in the war.
The '60s one could be anyone.

Clue for question 1 & 2:

They share the same surname ;D

Percy Bentlet was captain for 2 years

Captain Coach for 8.

Almost Bully - Perc Bentley was Captain for 2 years and Captain coach for a period of time but not 8 years.

Just need how long he was Captain Coach for.  :thumbsup

I thought you may have missed counted Bull you are correct.

2 years as captain and 7 as captain coach - total as captain = 9 years

Kevin and Peter Hogan ???

Correct

Kevin Hogan born 1932 played 15 games between 1952-53

Peter Hogan born 1945 played 40 games between 1963-66

there was also another Hogan who played for the Tigers. Gerald Hogan played in 1911-12 and he was my typo he played the 4 games for 4 goals

I reckon Ronnie B would have known froars. He was probably watching Richmond while those Hogan boys were still in nappies. 8)
