Kevin Sheedy has been Essendon coach since 1981, and has coached home & away games at 20 grounds - can you name them?

A few there are guesses - I think Essendon played Fitzroy at North Hobart and I would guess they played at least once on the W.A.C.A ground. -
19 out of 20 - well done Damien.
There was one he never coached at on that list, but I'm not going to tell you which. And one other ground where he did.
North Hobart and the WACA are correct.

Not sure what to remove - perhaps our old ground? and replace with Adelaide Oval?Comment

You missed the Junction Oval.
Drop Glenferrie - they stopped playing VFL games there in 1973.Last edited by NMWBloods; 21 July 2004, 10:39 PM.Captain Logic is not steering this tugboat.

Damn that!
I thought Junction Oval - but I went to a site to double check and got this:
Formerly known as St Kilda Cricket Club Ground, the Junction Oval was home for 3 AFL/VFL clubs:
- St. Kilda 1897-1915; 1918-1941
- South Melbourne (Sydney) 1944-1946
- Fitzroy (Brisbane) 1897 - 1966
The ground saw 734 AFL/VFL Matches, and 6 finals, and the Melbourne Football Club now train at the ground.

I think Junction Oval was actually Fitzroy's home ground from 1970-84. During 1897-1966 it was Brunswick St. Princes Park in between those two and after Junction Oval.
Amazing the old Kevin Sheedy. I remember when he was playing for Richmond and he actually came to our primary school one day to take footy training.Captain Logic is not steering this tugboat.
