I've got one.

Apart from playing for the Pies: Scott Pendlebury, Mason Cox, Will Kelly, Allan Didak, Alex Fasolo, Brent Macaffer, Chris Dawes & Andrew Pugsley have something in common. What is it?

^BOOM. Correct. Pugsley actually kicked goals with his first two kicks and I neglected to list Damien Houlihan who kicked three goals with his first three kicks.

^^^^^

Is that a Collingwood record for goals scored through a players first kicks for us? Also does anyone know what the VFL/AFL record is? Thanks

Houlihan kicked his three goals from three kicks as a 17 year old full forward. Don't know why he wasn't able to go on with it and have an impressive career.

OK, here's another one: De Goey, of course, is responsible for the biggest bag of goals in a single match this season with his 5 against Geelong. Who was the last Collingwood player to kick 6 in a game, and what year did they achieve it? (Follow-up questions: answer the same for 7, 8 and 9 respectively.)

6 = Will Hoskin-Elliott (Round 11 2018 vs Fremantle)

7 = Travis Cloke (Round 10 2015 vs Melbourne)

8 = Anthony Rocca (Round 2 2006 vs Hawthorn)

9 = Saverio Rocca (Round 15 1997 vs Fremantle). Though Sav did kick 11 against Fremantle in 1998 and 10 against Melbourne in 1997 as well.

I remember it well, because it was Checkers' debut game in which he kicked 4 goals.
