Ok, heres a doozy:

What was the name of the umpire of the first 5 VFL grand finals, and never has there been a more fitting name for an umpire.

( VFL as in VFL/AFL, not VFL as in VFA/VFL)

Correct.
Cam is a ripping bloke he runs a Memorabilia shop in Smith St Fitzroy.

http://indolentdandy.net/fitzroyalty/20 ... -smith-st/

He still loves the club and loves talking anything Collingwood. Shame a knee injury ruined his football missing the entire 1986 season, he still keeps in close contact with Banksy and Daics.

Which former Essendon premiership hero wore number 18 for Collingwood in 1988?

Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

One was from SA and stood out of footy for 12 months as North Adelaide wouldnt give him a clearance.

The other we recruited from WA, South Fremantle I believe.

Come the end of 1989 they were both gone.

Who were they?
Grant Fielke and Brett Yorgey?

Yorgey was the WA player but Fielke was a right footer. Someone else.
Greg Faull? Mark Orval?

When this guy left he went to another AFL club and gave Matthews a parting verbal spray as he left.

He only played a handful of senior games for his new club.
I'm out.

First name?
