Doh...I forgot one venue though. Anyone want to take a guess what it is? 

If praccy matches are included then there is Carrara.

Nup. The venue was the home ground of a VFL/AFL team and it was a final b/w the Tiges and Swans.

Questions 4 (last venue), 6 (St Kilda, Fitzroy, Roos and ?) and 8 left to go.

8. Twice with no success, they didn't win a final til 96 IIRC.

I'm going to have to cheat and get out the almanac, but I won't answer it.

In my research I came across the following:

1922: Melbourne - Fitzroy was played at Princes Park because the MCG was unavailable due to a school-children's display.  :rollin

Correct Jake  :thumbsup

A midfield of Greg Williams, Gerald Healy and Barry Mitchell and they still got spanked in each final.
