Yep, it was Roy Bull. Timmah got the correct answer for 9, Canterbury didn't have a home ground for their first season. They moved to Belmore in 1936.

Q.3 If we are talking about since 1908 then most minor premierships go to South Sydney. If it is since 1998 then the most would go to the Melbourne Storm, Brisbane Broncos and Parramatta Eels with 2 a piece

 

[typicalfan]

South Sydney have 18 minor premierships

 

[Non Terminator]

Illegal replacements hey?
Wests in 1975, Souths in the late eighties (can't remember the year), Balmain and Auckland in the ninties and the obvious Cowboys and Bulldogs incidents regarding 14 players.

 

[Non Terminator]

And for the first...was it renamed to Stockland in 1995 (same year as Cowboys debut season)?

 

[typicalfan]

Also Timmah got Question 2 wrong simple mistake

2) How many club captains played in this year's ANZAC test? he said 7 but he forgot to check the NZ side which contains Roy Asotasi who is the South Sydney Captain and the Cowboys captain. So it goes

9 - Luke Bailey (Titans), Johnathan Thurston (Cowboys), Kurt Gidley (Knights), Steve Price (Warriors), Darren Lockyer (Brisbane & Australian captain), Cam Smith (Storm), Petero (Panthers) and Paul Gallen (Sharks) and Roy Asotasi (Rabbitohs)

Wasn't it also Cowboys Stadium for a year or 2?
