I guess everyone is stumped ... or isn’t at all motivated by my carefully researched questions
The answers are:
1 - Buggsy
2 - Rags or Raggsy
3 - Turvey Park (my cousin, Jimmy Gutterson got the job when Big Nick stayed at Carlton)
4 - Ballarat (I would have accepted Robinvale where he lived after his Carlton career ended)
5 - Newlands High (my old school)
6 - Galt’s cartoon depicted the VFL as a pig muscling in on the VFA’s Sunday monopoly.
7 - Broken ankles suffered in a car accident.
8 - David Parkin
9 - Dentist
10 - 1966 - midway through the season :o
