OK - questions not hard enough perhaps...

Which established player, of some note in his day, did the Bulldogs miss signing in 1942 due to an uninformed club official signing the player's brother by mistake??

Correct jboyar!!! Lindsay White became a free agent at the end of 1941 when Geelong temporarily withdrew from the comp. due to WW2. He ended up at South Melbourne, and turned out to be Footscray's nemesis when he booted a bag against the doggies in the 1942 semi-final.

Good to see that localyokel has a bit of competition!
