Melbourne Quiz

[Deestroy]

Here’s a new game to keep everyone interested during this long off season.

The rules are simple;
- Someone asks a question relating to the MFC
- Whoever answers correctly gets to ask the next question

For example if I ask “Who currently wears number 7” and BT answers “Brad Miller”, he must then ask the next question and so on.

As an added bonus, the first 3 correctly answered questions (remember when you get one right you then have to post the next question) will win a 1-year subscription to the BigFooty Supporters Club. If you are already a member this will extend your membership period for another year. The prizes are open only to Melbourne supporters.

So to get things underway:

Name 5 players to have worn the number 5 jumper for Melbourne.

It was a goal.

It was a goal.

Yes, but that's not exactly what I was after.

Try and describe the moment.

Yes, but that's not exactly what I was after.

Try and describe the moment.

I think he sprayed the shot out of bounds on the full but was awarded a 50 metre penalty so kicked it from the goalsquare instead.

 

[Vandal]

Yes, but that's not exactly what I was after.

Try and describe the moment.

It was a shot at goal that had to be taken again.
