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?

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

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

I think that it is Bret Hutchinson - wore the number 42 for the Demons in the 80's.

Trevor Castles

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

Dan Cunningham (1932)

(never heard of him either)

Joe Hogan

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?

Here are the clues in their entirety:-

Who am I ... 1st Clue:

I played only one game for the Melbourne Football Club.

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

Dan Cunningham (1932)

(never heard of him either)

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.

Well the fourth clue is about as current as you can get, isn't it?

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.

I'm curious. Which ground?

I'm curious. Which ground?

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.

Known as Melbourne Speedway.
