Hmmmm tough one
Anthony Griffin (who could coach but clearly like players, coaches reach a point where the game passes them by)
Baldy McGregor and Chinless Price
I don't know what the front office structure of the merged entity is. CEO was the arsonist Doust followed by the coward Brian Johnstone and now Ryan Webb who seems to be a combination of the previous 2. But the BOD hires the CEO, right? And the BOD is divided up into Win Corp appointees representing Illawarra which includes the arsonist and those appointed by St George Leagues Club. Right now, it consists of 7, for some reason 4 nominated by Win Corp and 3 by St George. Is that right?

Good effort, mixed results.Why only me?
*Guessing the battles may have been the American Civil War.
* Egyptian, Mesopotamian, Meso American, Chinese.

* Jupiter?

1. Battles of Ryzhev (known in the West as the Battle for Moscow), Battle of Stalingrad, Battle of Orel-Kursk, Siege of Leningrad, Battle of Baghdad (the Mongol version, not the American version in our lifetime)
2. Egypt, Mesopotamia, China, Indus Valley (shared between India and Pakistan today)
3. paper, gunpowder, steel, compass
4. the planet which more and more astronomers are saying isn't just a conspiracy theory which exists out past Pluto on an eccentric orbit which may effect Earth via it's gravity when the eccentric orbit brings it to its closest point to the sun.
5. There are at least a few, maybe several asteroids in the Kuiper belt even bigger than Pluto. So it was cross it off as a normal planet rather than dwarf planet or radically increase the number of planets in the solar system.
