You got it!

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

1) What the following players have in common?
Eric Grothe Jr, David Penna, Chad Robinson, PJ Marsh, Michael Buettner
2) Which former Origin player debuted for Parramatta, but won a premiership at another club and almost played for another country?

2 John Baker (Baker's Delight)
3 John Moran (as in An Indian psychiatrist from New dehli, visiting Salt Lake City, called at the local asylum and heard the inmates singing.
Investigating further he saw a large group of choristers holding an apple and tapping the apple with the other hand.
'Are they inmates?' he asked.
'No,' he was told 'That's the Moron Tap-an-Apple Choir!'
