Bennett kicked 2 of our grand total of 3 goals that day.
From memory Peter Bradbury kicked the winning goal against a howling wind for the Bombers in the last qtr.
I'll never forget the half time score that day, both teams were level on 0.7.7 each

I can't remember what I had for breakfast 3 hours ago but I remember with laser clarity Bradbury kicking the winning goal in that 1984 H&A match at the kennel.

Bloody Neil Cordy. He was supposed to be manning up on Bradbury but went kick chasing instead and got caught between Tim Watson and Bradbury who'd wandered down to the goal square just in case. Bradbury was the only player within 30 metres of the goal mouth
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

Have to go on Hard Quiz!
Western Bulldogs has already been a topic on Hard Quiz. The guy who had it is a guy I've known since we were kids. His dad was our GP (he saved my late dad's life years ago)
And yes he won the Big Brass Mug.
I auditioned for Hard Quiz a few years ago (special subject Dad's Army) but had to leave the audition halfway through. I've been meaning to apply again

Hope you don't mind GVGjr but I thought we'd play this a bit longer.
Which Bulldogs player was drafted from Glenorchy Football Club playing a total of 32 games and three of those games were finals.

I probably shouldn't have posted it on Twitter but once the one answer we were chasing was mentioned the cat was out of the bag. Perhaps we can find another one to test the team?

Yep. I was pretty confident it was Bradbury who kicked the winner.

As an aside, did he play most if not all of his games in long sleeves?

I recall he had a forearm guard.
