Who played on the half forward flank in 5 consecutive Grand Finals in the 1960s at Adelaide Oval, and never kicked a single goal?
Let's see if any of you out there know the answer to this one.

1 Sturt player(Jim Tilbrook) played in 5 consecutive Grand Finals on a HFF but he kicked goals in 4 of them, a couple of Port players are possibilities, they played in 7 Grand Finals in a row but Spiers, Bray, Mead and Luke all kicked goals in Grand Finals so got me stumped.

You are going to hate me when I tell you the answer.

It is ....... The South Australian Police Band. They played on the half forward flank in 5 consecutive Grand Finals but never kicked a goal.

Hope the answer amused you ... if not, apologies :D

I remember reading this joke in a none to serious Footy Times yearbook article titled "Wayne Kerr-A groin from glory' It's old enough to have whiskers but sucks plenty of the young ones in.
