So I'll give you a couple more to see if anyone can get the answers....

 

1.    “I would have 100 shots a week at training….”

 

2.    “I train day on, day off.  Day on.  Day off….Todays’s day off”

 

3.      “ If blokes got in my way, I knocked them over…and sometimes it was a little too high..”

 

4.     "The old Melbourne’s gone….done and dusted.  Finished….and that will never reappear again"

 

5.     “Healy off,  Ellingworth on….bloody weak as [censored]…”

 

6.     “Any game against Collingwood, you had to get up…it’s a long week in football and every 2^nd bastard you run into is a Collingwood    supporter..”

Some more guesses

 

Number 1:  

1.       “I would have 100 shots a week at training….” Allan Jakovich, Max Gawn

 

 

OK no correct answers yet, but am impressed with a couple of options put forward...Remember these are only MFC icons......

2.    “I train day on, day off.  Day on.  Day off….Todays’s day off” Shane Woewodin

 

3.      “ If blokes got in my way, I knocked them over…and sometimes it was a little too high..”

A: Rod Grinter.....correctly identified by  Left Foot Snap

 

4.     "The old Melbourne’s gone….done and dusted.  Finished….and that will never reappear again" Raul Poos

 

5.     “Healy off,  Ellingworth on….bloody weak as [censored]…”

Another one:

7. 

The voice became more agitated.  “Open the door – it’s Norm Smith”

I said: “Hell is that you, Red Fox?”

Norm put his shoulder to the door and it nearly came off its hinges.  He burst in and wrestled all 3 of us, and it bloody hurt too; we were bruised.  ….” None of you will ever refer to me as The Red Fox ever again!”

Who said “ Hell is that you , Red Fox?” thereby giving Norm Smith his nickname ? Tassie Johnson

 

 

Congratulations Roger Mellie.....another one right!

No 4.  The old Melbourne’s gone….done and dusted.  Finished….and that will never reappear again.

Further help needed?

 

No. 7.  A:    Ian Thorogood.  From “The Red Fox” by Ben Collins

I'll have another stab. 

I would have guessed Max Gawn for question 1 but that has already been done. So my guess is Russel Robertson with a left field guess of Earl Spalding. 

For question 6, was it Neil Balme?

sorry LFS neither correct.

6.  Neale Daniher?

sorry RM.

I will reveal 1 each day, if no-one can guess them.....

I'm trying to go by the language being used. Is number 6 Mark Jackson?

OK, you have been kept in suspense, so here is one to help out:

No 6. “Any game against Collingwood, you had to get up…it’s a long week in football and every 2^nd bastard you run into is a Collingwood supporter..”

A:  Allen Jakovich Demonland podcast 21 October 2017.       37.25

OK....here is the answer to the last one.

No 1. “I would have 100 shots a week at training….”

A:  Brad Green, Demonland Podcast 20/6/18

Small wonder that he was so good at shooting for goal.
