Melbourne Quiz - Know your Enemy

[one-eyed]

q1 - Motordrome - 1932 - where Olympic Park now sits

q2, only twice in the 1940 season, 2nd semi and grand final.  We won the 2nd semi by a goal, then lost the grannie by 39 points!

q8?

1. I'll give it to you LT. Olympic Park is the venue listed on the stats.rleague.com site .

2. Correct LT 

Only question 8 to go. Two names. One so bleedingly obvious that you'll kick yourself when you see it.

I've had a look on the OER Draft List  and Haydn Robins was drafted from Melb preseason '94. Played 4 games for Richmond and I don't recall any of them.  Is he one of the two?
The obvious one has me stumped. The most obvious to me was Simmo.

POYAS!  and a guy called David Williams played a handful too

[one-eyed]

Well done LT and FF. Poyas and Robins were the two  .

[Fishfinger]

Williams didn't play LT. We drafted him in an underhanded way when Melb dropped him off their list while he recovered from a knee reconstruction. He didn't want to go to Richmond and never played again.

Did Poyas go to Melb? I know they wouldn't draft him because Gutnik said they couldn't (butt out Joe), reason being he was jewish and Joe reckoned he shouldn't play on Saturdays.

Sorry one-eyed.  Butt out Fishfinger. 

Edit: Woops, I see Poyas obviously did. Well done LT.

No worries Fish.  I do remember seeing Williams play, but it must have been against the Tigers.  I can remember us drafting him though.
