Trivia

[Tarkyn_24]

A lot of club boards have this sort of stuff, and it might be fun to do.


So I'll start the ball rolling.

Who was the ball kicked to with the last kick of the 2002 GF?

Hint: The player may or may not have marked it.

[nick_savo]

Im going to have a wild stab and say Ryan Lonie, This is a total guess.

[Tarkyn_24]

No. Not bad guess though.

[nick_savo]

Damn, lol I won't embarress myself anymore and not take anymore guess's lol

[Tarkyn_24]

Damn, lol I won't embarress myself anymore and not take anymore guess's lol
No, go on, there were only 43 other players on the ground. And seeing as Neon never touched the ball..

[nick_savo]

I can picture the last person to have it, I think they were running sort of along the boundry towards our forward line, Am i right? Probly not

[Tarkyn_24]

They were, and it was Freeborn. Who did he kick it to?

[Tarkyn_24]

BTW will clarify. Freeborn kicked the ball before the siren, so it counted as a kick. Who was it kicked to?

[nick_savo]

They were, and it was Freeborn. Who did he kick it to?
Someone in the forward line? :p

[Tarkyn_24]

Someone in the forward line? :p
Name???

[Lonie_from_50]

Nick Davis had the last official kick, after taking a mark after Ben Johnson made a dash off half back. The intended target was Josh Fraser, however I am not sure whether he got the last touch.

[nick_savo]

Tarkyn said Freeborn had the last kick

[Tarkyn_24]

Tarkyn said Freeborn had the last kick
My bad.

It was Davis too. And he did kick it to Fraser. You're up Lonie:thumbsu:

[Tarkyn_24]

Tarkyn said Freeborn had the last kick
It looked like Freeborn on the you tube video I watched:thumbsu:

[Lonie_from_50]

There have been many trivia threads...but fair enough

Q: Which player kicked the first score of the 1990 Grand Final?

[Jabso]

Monkhourst? Or Brown, one of them.

My 2 favorite trivia questions which I've asked heaps of times before are:

Who was named CHF in the 2003 Grand Final for us?

Who was named to line up on Tony Lockett on the day he brock Nuts' record?

Was it the man who was knocked out at half time... Big Gavin Brown?

[Dj Chriss]

Was it the man who was knocked out at half time... Big Gavin Brown?

It was Shane kerrison, straight out of the middle after about 8 seconds, and it was quater time when he was knocked out

[nick_savo]

It was Shane kerrison, straight out of the middle after about 8 seconds, and it was quater time when he was knocked out
Ohk, sorry, Im not having a good day :p

[Tarkyn_24]

Awaiting confirmation from Lonie...

[Dj Chriss]

Ohk, sorry, Im not having a good day :p

Your only human :thumbsu: I on the other hand, im batman :D

[Lonie_from_50]

It sure was Kerro...well described too DJ...a booming kick from the centre clearance got it passed Daniher, unlucky to see it miss though.

And Jabso's answers - 1. Simon Prestigiacomo, lmfao...and 2. Was it Sav Rocca?

Bandwagoner;) ??? Just joking Jabso. Good Guess:thumbsu: :thumbsu:

[Jabso]

It was Anthony not Sav.
I was disapointed Presti didn't play forward in the 2003 GF. I had dreams of him kicking 5 on the big day!

[nick_savo]

That would of been nice, lol

[Lonie_from_50]

BTW, Dj Chriss, you're up

[Dj Chriss]

Il start with an easy one.

Q. What was the only decade Collingwood didnt make the grand final once?

[Jabso]

Il start with an easy one.

Q. What was the only decade Collingwood didnt make the grand final once?

1890s unless you count the VFA premiership. 1940s is the real answer I suppose.

[Lonie_from_50]

Q. What was the only decade Collingwood didnt make the grand final once?

Has to be the 1940's you would think...jabso has got it then I guess.

[Jabso]

Interesting note about the 1896 VFA premiership. I think it was actually the first grand final ever played since us and the other team (Sth. Melbourne I think) finished with the same points and percentage so a grand final was agreed to be played.

So I'll start the ball rolling.

nick davis

[Tarkyn_24]

nick davis
Kicked to..., Davis kicked the ball to someone before the siren sounded. And Lonie already has answered it, Josh Fraser

[Dj Chriss]

1890s unless you count the VFA premiership. 1940s is the real answer I suppose.

Yer the 1940s is the answer, how many VFA grand finals did we win? (not a trivia question just intrested)

[Tarkyn_24]

Yer the 1940s is the answer, how many VFA grand finals did we win? (not a trivia question just intrested)
Just 1

[Lonie_from_50]

Only one in 1896, as Tarks said

[Jabso]

[Lonie_from_50]

Who was our first VFL premiership captain?

Answer: Lardie Tulloch

[Tarkyn_24]

I'm guessing your up again Lonie:thumbsu:

[Lonie_from_50]

[scottyD]

[thaimagpie]

So much for this thread

[Tarkyn_24]

Revive it. Thai, you ask the question...

[Rocca Flys High]

OK, an easy one

[Tarkyn_24]

OK, an easy one

What Hawthorn Champion did Collingwood draft in 1993 (I think, somewhere after the last Hawthorn Premiership)
Brereton.

Then he moved to Sydney.

[Johnson#26]

No, Brereton became a Swan for 1994, and became a Pie in 1995, his final year.

[scottyD]

[Rocca Flys High]

That was correct....

Hmmm, another easy one

Haha, I remember reading it while goin through the list of guernseys on the collingwoodfc website, mixed him up with maxwell.

[Rocca Flys High]

But Maxwell was 43! Rowe is 41!

[Tarkyn_24]

MY AFL Live game lied:mad:

[Tarkyn_24]

But Maxwell was 43! Rowe is 41!
you're right. My bad.

[Rocca Flys High]

That's all right, anyone else?

[Rocca Flys High]

Any Neon Nuts at all?

[kazui01]

I believe that Leon initailly wore number 40

[Rocca Flys High]

Correct! About time too!

Here's another easy one.

What was the 4 numbers held by the 2 sets of brothers in the 3rd of the 4 premierships in a row?

[Rocca Flys High]

Anyone with good Pie knowledge?

[Dazman]

Nope

[Tarkyn_24]

Just find a list of 1929 guernsey numbers:thumbsu:

Is one of the numbers 5?

I know the brothers would be the Coventry's and the Colliers.

[Rocca Flys High]

Yes, it's them, but what are the numbers? not 5!

[Dazman]

I think Albert was 29...

[Dazman]

Found it!!

Gordon - 7
Syd - 8
Albert - 5
Harry - 6

Except my source had a 5

[Rocca Flys High]

Hmm, OK then, I'll accept that then, well Done!

OK then....

What is Collingwood's GF % in the foursome?

[Tarkyn_24]

Hmm, OK then, I'll accept that then, well Done!

OK then....

What is Collingwood's GF % in the foursome?
er 100%???

could we have the question a bit clearer???

[Rocca Flys High]

Like Ladder % For/Againest. You know, If Collingwood scored 200 points and Carlton scored 50, Collingwood's % is 400%, while Carlton's only 25%.

So

What was Collingwood's % during the the GF's of 1927-1930?

Gotcha.

I thought you meant win - loss percentage:thumbsu:

[Rocca Flys High]

OK, So, do you have any idea?

[Dazman]

Collingwood 0.1 2.6 2.92.13 (25)
defeated
Richmond 0.4 0.4 0.71.7 (13)

Collingwood 2.4 7.8 9.1113.18 (96)
defeated
Richmond 0.3 4.5 7.79.9 (63)

Collingwood 6.3 7.6 9.611.13 (79)

Richmond 2.0 3.3 5.57.8 (50)

Collingwood 3.2 3.7 11.1314.16 (100)
defeated
Geelong 2.5 6.10 6.119.16 (70)


For: 300
Against: 196

% = 153.06

How'd I go?

--------------------------------------------------------
Didn't realise we beat Richmond in 3 consecutive GF's. They're worse than we were in 02-03.

[Rocca Flys High]

Excellent stuff! Hmm, what else do I have?

Another easy one, after Jock, which coach has coached the most draws? And how many draws did he coach?

[Jabso]

I don't know Rocca my guess is Kyne.
Here's an interesting one name all the teams that have never beaten us by 10 goals (60 points) or more.

[Rocca Flys High]

Hey! You're only meant to ask after the question's been answered!

[Rocca Flys High]

Well, anyone?

After Jock, which coach has coached the most draws? And how many draws did he coach?

[Jabso]

Well, anyone?

After Jock, which coach has coached the most draws? And how many draws did he coach?

Kyne 4? Hafey 5?

[Rocca Flys High]

Nopr, none of them are right!

[Rocca Flys High]

Come on now!

[Jabso]

Minogue? Lardie Tulloch? Mick Malthouse? Tony Shaw? Leigh Matthews?

[Rocca Flys High]

I'm asking for the coach and his draws, not any random coach! lol

I anin't saying if it's close, it has to be 100% right!

[donsman4eva]

Leigh Matthews with 5 draws.

[Rocca Flys High]

Good God, you know you're very low when a rival gets the answer! Shame on you Fellow Pies fans? Where is your knowledge?

OK, Let's see....

Tell me what numbers have never been issued in a Premiership Winning Side

(Eg. What I want:No one wore the #1 in 2000, if the Pies won it that year, What I don't want: #34 Wasn't in the 2002 Premiership if we won it that year)
And it's all up to 39.

I've checked, and there is a very snkeay numkber that has been around for a long while, and then disappears in them years

[Tarkyn_24]

#21.

[bradrowe#32]

#21.

Michael Christian was #21. I'd guess #15 and #32.

[Rocca Flys High]

All of them numbers were issued in Premiership years, keep trying!

[Tarkyn_24]

#3, #29?

[bradrowe#32]

#3, #29?

Mick Gayfer and Scott Russell.

Russell was one of my favourite players. It's interesting that in the Brian Taylor diaries he didn't rate him at the start of 1990. Said he struggled in the pre-season. Gun player I reckon.

[Lenny29]

I didn't believe it but looked it up and you're right!

[Rocca Flys High]

Yep, as the label says, not there.

So far: 3,15,21,29,32 are not there

[Tarkyn_24]

#10?

[Rocca Flys High]

Sorry, not 10, Mark Ovrall wore it in 1990

[Rocca Flys High]

Anyone else?

[Lonie_from_50]

The correct answer is guernsey #38

No-one wore the jumper in our premiership years.

Q: Whose the odd one out and why?
- Tarkyn Lockyer
- Chris Curran
- Andrew Tranqulli
- Frank Raso

[Optimax]

The correct answer is guernsey #38

No-one wore the jumper in our premiership years.

Q: Whose the odd one out and why?
- Tarkyn Lockyer
- Chris Curran
- Andrew Tranqulli
- Frank Raso

Tranquilli was drafted not rookie listed i think.

Damn! Lonie was right with #38, and I think Optimax is right too....Damn!

[Lonie_from_50]

Tranquilli was drafted not rookie listed i think.

No and No

But right track though

[Optimax]

Lockyer was Rookie listed not drafted as the other three were if thats not it i dont know.

[Tarkyn_24]

I reckon its that Lockyer was from East fremantle
