Hi Trent,
Thanks for having a go and you have answered them all correct except for Question 6 and 10…
So that leaves Question 6 and 10 left for anyone to have a go at. Also do not forget to have a go at the first quiz which has 9 unanswered questions.

Hi aussierulesblog and thanks for having a go at the last two questions for this Quiz. Unfortunately Western Bulldogs and Ron Evans are not the right answer…
I will give some clues…
6) non Victorian club
10) Same first name as a famous all rounder who played cricket with Don Bradman who has a statue after him.

According to the stats for players via the AFL website:
Osborne, Richard Fitzroy (82-92), Sydney (93), Western Bulldogs (94-96), Collingwood (97-98) 283 games 574 goals
Very cunning clue on the last one. I seem to remember now (after some research) that it was Neil Roberts, himself a Brownlow medallist at St Kilda. If I’m right, the clue refers to Robert Harvey’s grand-uncle, Neil Harvey, who was the youngest member of Bradman’s 1948 ‘Invincibles’ tour of England.

@aussierulesblog – Yes you were right in the fact that Richard Osborne did play for Western Bulldogs. I do not know what happened and how I managed to get it wrong, I had mistaken him with someone else (Jarred Molley) who had played for Fitzroy, Brisbane and Collingwood. So that was my fault and mistake, so thank you AussieRulesBlog and Trent who answered correctly before.
and in regards to question two, my clue again was bogas. Hear is a correct clue: Nickname “RaceHorse” and also won back to back brownlows….
I am so sorry for everyone for my crap and incorrect clues…..

OK. Keith Grieg? And the cricket clue refers to Keith Miller? Not so much a ‘bogus’ clue as one with several implied results.
