You're not thinking of Euan Campbell, originally from Old Scotch whose only game was in Round 16, 1968 against Geelong at Kardinia Park, by any chance?

Most certainly am WJ. You have guessed my guess

    Do you mean the Nathan Jones look alike who became Federal Member for Pink Batts or the young colt from Seymour who was given the number 31 in 1977 but had to wait until the following year to make his debut?

    I'm not really sure WJ. I was just a baby at the time.

    I googled and liked the name. but, your a walking demon encyclopedia

    It would be easlier giving names and addresses of those that died on the titanic, than what we have got so far. :)

    Who else but the only Melbourne player in history with the surname of Hogan who even had the same initials as our own future star Jesse Hogan?

    I am...?

    Who am I ... 2nd Clue:

    The ground at which I played my one and only game no longer exists.

    I am...?

    Who am I ... 3rd Clue:

    I wore the number 13 and came to the Melbourne Football Club from Ballarat Imperial.

    I am...?

    Who am I ... 4th Clue:

    My namesake (surname) was recently recruited by the Demons but won't play for them next season.

    I am...?

    Joe Hogan

    At least you got the right year. Joe Hogan played his one and only game in 1932 but both he and Cunningham missed the Titanic by a couple of decades.

    Can we have a quiz that includes modern MFC history. This is too hard for me. :huh:

    Do I score .5 of a pt for the correct year?

    I was all over it with the 3rd clue. The 3rd clue should have been the 2nd clue and the 4th clue should have been the 1st clue. Then my 1st guess would have had a chance of getting somewhat close to being correct. In fact I think I could have nailed it IF your clues were swapped around.

    As it was, I was throwing darts at names and hoping for the best :) Whats the next one?

    1st clue : I wore long sleeves? lol

    You're a tough quiz master. But doing well hosting. Having fun doing it I hope?

    If anyone else wants to chair the quiz after WJ is done ,PM me, or put your name forward in this thread and I'll add you to the roster.

    For a triple point answer and a holiday in the Greek islands my answer is = Olympic Park

    After Hogan played his 1 only game there, the joint was doomed. Well afterall it did go to the dogs.

    WJ might want to confirm that is correct.

    Olympic Park is correct.

    We played 3 games there early in the 1932 season due to the MCG being unavailable as it was being top dressed.

    The ground at Olympic Park was known as the Motordome so my guess is that it was used for some sort of racing cars.

    I might have a crack at one more quiz and then call it quits for 2012.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.
