[mickdo]

They are Toooooooo hard for Micky....:lol:

Pfft. I already did a stack of your other cryptics before.

So how about answering my 3 questions? Not too hard are they? :lol:

 

[parra pete]

1) Why was the 1995 season so remarkable for Parra Stadium?

2) What is Ken Slattery's claim to fame at Parra?

3) Odd man out: Steve Sharp, Matt Keating, Brett Hodgson, Neil Hunt, Joe Galuvao

3...Steve Sharp...scored the first try at Parra Stadium.

or 3 Neil Hunt - Had a son play in a lower grade premiership at the Eels, and completed the father/son premiership double.
or 3. Joe Galuavo..only one to go to Manly
or 3 Matt Keating...only one to play first grade with his bro
or 3 Brett Hodgson..only one to be regular goal kicker.
Take your pick....

3...Steve Sharp...scored the first try at Parra Stadium.

Er, no. How does that fit with odd man out?

or 3 Neil Hunt - Had a son play in a lower grade premiership at the Eels, and completed the father/son premiership double.

Again no.

or 3. Joe Galuavo..only one to go to Manly

No

or 3 Matt Keating...only one to play first grade with his bro

Ho hum. No.

or 3 Brett Hodgson..only one to be regular goal kicker.
Take your pick....

No

Let me give you some help. 4 of the players did something that the 5th did not, not the other way round. That's why it's called Odd Man Out.

 

[parra pete]

Er, no. How does that fit with odd man out? ...

Did any of the others score first try? No....

Again no.

Have any of the others achieved that?

No

Have any of the others played with their bro at senior level

Ho hum. No.

Were the others goal kickers

No

Let me give you some help. 4 of the players did something that the 5th did not, not the other way round. That's why it's called Odd Man Out.

THATS WHY those mentioned are the odd men out!!!!

 

[mickdo]

THATS WHY those mentioned are the odd men out!!!!

Er, no. Try again. Not too hard for you is it?

3) My guess would be all played in GF's for Parramatta and lost, except for Steve Sharp.

No, not what I'm after. Hunt still won several anyway.

 

[parra pete]

Is it to do with statistics ? They are not something I can fit into my head..despite it being huge.....

 

[parra pete]

Steve Sharp...The other four enjoy Kellogg's Corn Flakes. Kellogg's advertise that Four out of five people enjoy Kelloggs Corn Flakes for breakfast. Steve, in this case is the fifth....

 

[mickdo]

It's to do with a game every first grade player plays in

Points for humour, but no ;-)

 

[mickdo]

Ok, seems everyone needs another hint for #3

It has to do with the team they first played against

 

[PARRA_FAN]

They all played their first Eels match against Canterbury, except Brett Hodgson who debuted against the Roosters in 2000.

 

[parra pete]

1. Penrith, parramatta, bulldogs, sydney tigers all played home games
2. has the lowest number of wins for a coach
3 They all played their first Eels match against Canterbury, except Brett Hodgson who debuted against the Roosters in 2000.

Call me Wally - as "In on the Grout" :lol:

You got it!

I think the listing of all 3 questions in order to win rule is stupid, so it's all yours...

 

[Bigfella]

Points off, surely?

Now Micky, have a crack at the cryptic. You don't need an encyclopedia or the memory of an elephant to get them correct.....

They are all bloody hard on me Bigfella....I don't deserve such disrespect...
I don't ask for respect, I DEMAND it...:sarcasm:
