Trivia Question
« on: May 23, 2005, 12:30:16 PM »
I went to the Pre-match function up in Brisbane on the weekend. As part of that function they had a trivia competition.

Part of it involved having a list of 12 Tiger nicknames and naming the players.

2 names had everyone stumped.

Can you name which 2 players had these nicknames:

1/ Chipper

2/ Brown Bomber

2 - Mal Brown

I cannot give anymore clues Moi - cos I don't know the answers.

I was hoping you'd be able to help ME ;D

We did think Brown Bomber may have been Rioli but couldn only remeber him as Magic
