Well it couldn't have been any of those guys born in the mid 80's.

Which players currently on our list have worn the No. 29 jumper ?

 

[kosifantutti]

Rix, Baker, Thompson, Peckett on the current list.

 

[Kildonan]

Yep

Your go

On May 3rd 1998 both Peter Everitt and Daniel Healy kicked six goals. What else did they have in common that day?

It was their birthday.

And after that game at Subi it felt like it was my birthday.

 

[kosifantutti]

Yes, both turned 24 that day.

 

[sainter]

In that famous game back in 1995 at Waverley where we kept the eventual premiers to just three goals, who was the Carlton player that kicked their first goal? It was during the third quarter.

I'll add a clue at this time tomorrow if no-one has got it.

First thought was Harry Madden however he didn't kick a goal so I will say James Cook.

Correct.

Well you did only have a choice of 3 I guess.

 

[Snakeman66]

I hope this is a little harder.

1st Clue.

I played 1 game for the Saints in the mid seventies.

 

[kosifantutti]

Bill Cannon

 

[Kildonan]

Can't say I've ever heard of him.

Where did you pull that one from, Kosi ?

 

[kosifantutti]

He is the producer of "On the couch"

Played one game only I think in about '75.

Son of Jack Cannon who had the Cannon Shots column in one of the Sunday papers.

 

[Kildonan]

You're a font of information.

No wonder you figure prominantly in this.

 

[Snakeman66]

Bill Cannon

Absolutely correct.

The question was posted while "On The Couch" was on.

1 game. 1975.

Wore number 47.

I think Cannon Shots was in the old Sunday Press.

Your go.

 

[kosifantutti]

Another in the series of obscure Saints players from the '70s who made a career in television.

Who was the player that played a handful of games in the 70's (more than 1, maybe 3) and went on to have a career doing TV ads. Probably remembered best for his SSW ads.

 

[mad-saint-guy]

What does SSW stand for?

 

[kosifantutti]

I don't know.
It was a supermarket chain

 

[Kildonan]

I didn't live in Vic in the 70's

I was there in the 60's, and I worked at The Royal Womens Hospital and Prince Henry Hospital in 1983/4. I have visited only spasmotically since then.

I would say I am at a disadvantage when you mention TV ads from the 70's.

 

[kosifantutti]

OK.
His initials are DL.
And like Bill Cannon, he played as a full forward.
