Lisa’s Last Chance Trivia Hut- A Taking The Mark Exclusive
It’s week two at the trivia hut, and Sexy Lisa Albergo is serving up 100% U.S.D.A. Choice Grade A Trivia. That’s right nothing but the best here. We don’t overcharge ya for crummy trivia like that idiot who did the You Don’t Know Jack trivia on this newsletter (What was his name? Pat somthing). So sit back, relax, and expand your mind. It’s time for Lisa to guide you into this week’s Purple Haze of trivia:

1.Prior to Robert Harvey in 1997-98, who was the last player to win consecutive Brownlows?

2.Which player won 2 Brownlows at 2 different clubs?

3.Who was team captain for Collingwood's last premiership?

Answers to last week’s questions:
1. Jason Dunstall with 1254
2.1970 Carl/Col GF - 121,696
3.North Melbourne's Corey McKernan

Thanks for the questions, Lisa. The answers will be printed in next week’s newsletter. Bythe way, if you want to read Lisa’s AFANA newsletter, drop her a line at ausfooty@aol.com. Tell ‘em Pat sent ya.


Yo, Adrian!!! Here’s a Tip for ya!!!
Adrian Appleyard of BigFooty.com has opened his tipping competition for the 2000 season. As I write this, big prizes have been lined up. Some of these prizes include an all expense paid trip around the Milky Way (Pat’s Lying), A lifetime supply of Vegemite(Another whopper), or 500 cases of Four N’ Twenty pies (Boy, does this kid deal in B.S. or what?). Anyway, go to www.afltips.com, and get ready to play. If you don’t play, I know where you live!!!!

Oscar Loves Toni
Since this newsletter is about all things Australian, it is only right that we congratulate Aussie actress Toni Collette (“Sixth Sense”) for her Best Supporting Actress Oscar nomination. All I can say is it’s about time. Toni’s most notable role comes from the Aussie film, Muriel’s Wedding, where she played a wallflower who creates a new life for herself. My favorite film though is Clockwatchers, where she plays an office temp who forges a friendship with other temps. Anyway, hope for the best, as this Aussie jewel goes for it all next month at the Academy Awards. The team from Footy Plus One is pulling for you, Toni!!!
