6. Apart from the Swans, what are the 4 other clubs Richmond has played against at the SCG?


Fitzroy, St Kilda, North, Dees?

Very close - 3 out of 4. The Dees weren't one of them.

13 brownlows. I'm guessing Skilton is the only multiple winner for the Swans so 11 individual medalists.

Not that I know of.

Clue of Qu 2.

One was drafted by Spud in his first year and eventually became a whipping boy on Tiger forums. The other played only 8 games but will be remembered for one important kick after the siren.
