Incorrect. Come on, nearly there. Hurry up and get the answer before I melt!
 
Hooray! Winner!
Was it 96 when he won the BandF? And missed most of 97 with injury.

Handy on Bigfooty because lots of people could suggest he's not really a doctor?

Don't know when he met the Queen, but he worked at the QEH.
Correct on all 3 clues.

Don't know if he actually has met the Queen in person or not, but he did work at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital. I've actually met him there.

Handy on BF - I would accept any of these reasonings:
- he has a pair of handy hands (surgeon), handy for anyone here with serious injuries or pending knee/hip replacements.
- handy because he's a surgeon who could help the club out, particularly during these last few years!
- handy because of his reputation he could help dispel a fair few myths and delusions on BF.

Remaining clues to be solved:
4.2 I can see myself getting chummy with dogs105.
4.4 One of my special footy highlights was shared with a magical stick.
4.6 I love money and gold among other passions.

I'll clarify everything by tomorrow morning if no further guesses.

4.2 Liptak is an orthopaedic surgeon = loves to handle bones, and so do dogs.

4.6 The “gold” here is in reference to his gold jacket that he won in 96. Also, who doesn’t love money?

4.4 This was probably the most cryptic of clues. “Special footy highlights” was in reference to his retirement end of 1999 season, along with Malcolm Blight and Rod Jameson.
Malcolm Blight = “Messiah”
Rod Jameson = Rod = “stick”
So Liptak’s retirement was shared with a Messiah stick = magical stick.

Godstick rather than Magical?
