That's how I remember the Lake Oval. I went there a few times but can't remember seeing us get within 12 goals of them.
Do you remember going to Brunswick st? I don't remeber going to games there but I lived up the road for a whole in the late '80s and it was just a big mess that wasn't very well maintained. I'd be surprised if any team was playing there at the time.
Been to the occasional reserves match (that's where "kick it to Brown eye" came from) at Punt rd, and one day when we were driving past my uncle said that was where he'd seen EJ play the "most superb individual" game he ever saw a player play in 65 years of watching the game. I pestered him with questions about it from about 100 metres past Punt rd all the way back to Melton.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
Okely.
Then this would mean:
That number 4 is the Lake Oval
Take Arden st out of 4/ and put the Lale Oval in meaning Lake Oval is number 4 for sure. And 2 of the other 4 clucks named are correct club and correct place?
1. Manuka
2. Whitten
3. Etihad
4. Lake oval
5. Brunswick Street Oval
Lock in 4/ Lake oval for me please Eddie?
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
1. Manuka
2. Whitten
3. Etihad
4. Lake oval
5. Brunswick Street Oval
So if I'm right then 2 of those names are correct.
Can I go for
1. Manuka
2. Whitten
3. Etihad
4. Lake oval
5. Brunswick Street Oval
The highlighted as correct? Just number of correct answers I reckon.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
And did you happen to say that Cairns just qualified? In that case is it number 1 with 60-70 %?
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
So from the first two guesses you could determine that Whitten Oval and Etihad were 2 and 3 respectively, because azabob had two perfect and the following guess had three in incorrect positions - Etihad and Whitten were the only two in common.
Manuka was mentioned in a few but always in the wrong spot so I pushed it up to one.
1 Manuka
2 Whitten
3 Etihad
4 Arden St
5 Junction Oval
I'm just getting to work so anyone can jump in.
No but yeah but no but didn't WD say ummm. Yeah, nah.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
And JD finished his hard work. All five correct.
Manuka: 7-3, 70%
WO: 348-9-283, 55.56%
Docklands: 107-3-110, 49.32%
Arden Street: 23-2-25, 48%
Junction Oval: 24-27, 47.06%.
Ineligible grounds that would have made the list:
Cazaly Stadium: 4-0. As is week documented, we're yet to drop a Game in Cairns.
Marrara Oval: 7-2. Darwin another happy hunting ground, but not quite 10 games.
Carrara: 5-4. Thank goodness Brisbane were so shit in the early days.
Sydney Showground: 1-1. Ahh memories...
Next in line of the old grounds were Glenferrie, Brunswick Street, Waverley and Optus Oval.
Lake Oval was thrown up, our record there was 14-27.
Bonus point: there are two grounds which we have used for one match as a home ground. Both were losses.
One is Eureka Stadium. Who knows the other?
Edit: bonus bonus point: what is the only ground where we have a 100% record as the away team?
