@freowho, You got Darkie and yourself right

 

[THCLT]

There has only been TWO duos who have played 300+ VFL/AFL games together at a given club.

Can you name the duos in question...?

PM me your answer.

@freowho gave me two duos who were just short of the 300+ games club, but were indeed the 3rd and 5th highest duos overall at 293 and 287 games respectively.

A lot of fantastic duo nominations coming through, including numerous from the great man himself @Rowsus who I was sure that he would know it...but alas, I'm still waiting for a correct duo or two to come through!

@Herbie66 has cracked the code with the TOP duo but there's still one other duo in that 300+ club which has yet to be identified.

I won't reveal the top answer yet and will reserve this for a later post, maybe tomorrow...

...and the great man delivers as per usual with both correct duos, just needed a bit of warming up I guess!

It did take me or 8 or 9 guesses though!

Ok. I'm going to let you in on my little trick here.

ALL of these quotes are wrong!!!!

So to extend this quiz one more day. Can you tell me, what the real quote actually is???!!!

Well this was a twist, even for someone who was expecting one!

I am also terrible at entertainment trivia, but I will say:

1 No Luke at the start
2 A corner
3 No g on the end of going
4 who is
5 no idea. Just two different sentences, not linked consecutively?
6 Are you feeling lucky, punk?
7-10 no idea
11 No my, life’s
12 don’t know
13 Greed’s
14-16 no idea!

Thanks mate ... so basically all of the ones I was confident of, I got right, and all my lineball calls I jumped the wrong way! Can be a bit of a domino effect, admittedly ... ?

I changed my 2nd one to release the answers progressively when someone gets the right answer, that way it narrows down the match-ups.

There has only been TWO duos who have played 300+ VFL/AFL games together at a given club.

Can you name the duos in question...?

PM me your answer.

Duos to have played the most VFL/AFL games together at a given club:
307 = Andrew McLeod & Tyson Edwards
301 = Adam Goodes & Jude Bolton
293 = Brent Harvey & Drew Petrie
289 = Francis Bourke & Kevin Bartlett
287 = Brad Johnson & Scott West
280 = Nathan Burke & Stewart Loewe
278 = Craig Bradley & Stephen Silvagni
271 = Simon Madden & Terry Daniher
270 = Corey Enright & Jimmy Bartel
260 = Luke Power & Simon Black

There are 2 current duos who are leading their respective clubs:
248* = Justin Westhoff & Travis Boak
129* = David Swallow & Jarrod Harbrow

I would never have got them. My other guess would have been Tuck and Matthews but not even top 10.

@Bomber18 you got Nos 3 and 4 correct!

Now that I have your undivided attention with the duo question, it's time to ramp up the difficulty scale and test your knowledge on the following:

Throughout the VFL/AFL history, there has only been ONE quartet to have played 200+ games together and ONE octad (group of eight) to have surpassed 100 games together.

Clue: The record for quartet & octad stands at 218 and 102 games respectively.

One point if you can name the club and extra points for each correct players named in each set.

PM me your answer.
