I suppose that leaves he who shall not be named; RG.

Well done!

Not sure well dones are in order - took about 20 random guesses!!

I've got a tricky question though:

Since the stats were first recorded in 1965, 5 Bulldogs have recorded a career-wide disposals per game average exceeding 20 AND a goals per game average exceeding 1. Who are they?

I tried to find it a couple of years ago, but it no longer exists.

The website was called OWAAT (One Week At A Time).

I did post about it on BigFooty but unfortunately I only posted a link and not the actual article. Spew!

Shame. The site admin doesn't have a copy stashed on a backup somewhere?

Choco

Re: Trivia Time: Useless Dogs Stats Quiz

Brian Royal would be a good candidate I think.

299 goals and 199 games - so ticks the goals stat. Just a matter of the 20+ possies average.

Yep, Choco is indeed one. Averaged 20.46 disposals per game and 1.5 goals.

Just misses. Met the goals comfortably, but averaged 19.7 disposals per game.

Johnson, Royal, Hawkins, Cooney, Akermanis

Re: Trivia Time: Useless Dogs Stats Quiz

We've got Royal, the others all miss; Hawkins on goals, Cooney on goals, Aker on disposals (stats are as a Bulldog only).

I sent the admin a message about a year ago when I tried to find it, but he didn't reply. I just assumed he wouldn't have it saved on file, which I figured why he didn't respond, rather than flat out ignoring me.

Great question. Really gives the brain a workout.

I'll try for three more:

Nathan Brown, George Bissett, Luke Dahlhaus

Geoff Jennings, David Thorpe

Re: Trivia Time: Useless Dogs Stats Quiz

Giansiracusa or Rohan Smith?

I'm assuming Turtle misses out on disposals

[LostDoggy]

Re: Trivia Time: Useless Dogs Stats Quiz

That's 1 from 3.

Bissett is a yes; 138 games, 248 goals (1.80), 3140 disposals (22.75). What a gun.

Brown missed on disposals, Dahlhaus was just under on both.
