Monday Sports Talk Social Quiz #11 - Win 100k SPORTS + 500k SPORTS delegation
Welcome to the Monday Sports Quiz. This is the last quiz for March. Can anyone stop @ablaze claiming the 500K delegation for a 2nd month in a row?
After this week's post I'm also going to pause the Monday Sports Talk Social Quiz for a while. Engagement has fallen off a little so it might be that people are just feeling quizzed out plus I've got a few other projects in the fire at the moment both on and off platform that I'll need to focus on in the coming months.
Results from Sports Talk Social Quiz #10
I won't post the questions again but you can see them here
Question 1 - Le Bron Jame @ablaze
Question 2 - Harry Kane (no correct answers)
Question 3 - Rachael Blackmore
Question 4 - The correct sequence was DEBCA @ogeewitty
Question 5 - Some good guesses but no one got. The correct answer is that they are all clubs not named after a physical location i.e. there is no such place as Juventus or indeed Port Vale...
March Standings
The current league table for March is as follows
User | Points |
---|---|
@ablaze | 4 |
@cryptoandcoffee | 3 |
@ogeewitty | 2 |
@birjudanak | 1 |

Monday Sports Talk Social Quiz #11
Questions 1 to 3 - Name that Athlete
3 stars from football, cricket and rugby who aren't keen to show their face. Can you tell me who they are?
Question 1
Question 2
Question 3
Question 4 - What's the number?
Answer the 3 questions below to get a total figure at the end.
The total number of pit stops made by all cars during the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix this weekend
+ (plus)
The number of Test Matches that the England cricket team has won since the start of 2021
- (minus)
The number of players who started for Canada in their 4-0 over Jamica that resulted in them qualifying for the football World Cup that were actually born in Canada
=
Question 5 - Rhyming teammates
The England cricket team recently featured Ben Stokes, Chris Woakes and Ben Foakes, 3 players with rhyming surnames. That got me thinking, how many other athletes have played on the same team as someone whose surname rhymes with theirs? There must be literally hundreds of them!
The challenge then is simple. Think of as many sports stars who have played on the same team as someone whose surname rhymes with theirs. It can be any sport but they must have played on the same team together in a professional and competitive fixture and their names must be a full rhyme.
There are 60K SPORTS to be won for this question and I'll split it based on the number of correct answers e.g. if there are 10 correct answers when the quiz closes and 6 of them belong to you then that'd be 36K SPORTS.
Keep dropping your answers in the comments section. The more the better!
Q1. Dani Alves?
Good guess could see how it could be but no
And well deserved break man, can't believe you got to week 11, good on ya, you could always make it monthly or quarterly if you start it up again. Weekly is a big undertaking as clearly you put a lot of time and effort into it.
Yeah good idea. Could do one, larger quiz a month!

Question 2. Joe Root.
Number 2 is indeed Joe Root!
Can’t believe he hasn’t resigned after any shambolic performance in the Caribbean.
Any ideas on Q3? It’s an All Black if that helps…
I’ll give the quiz a rest for now but thanks for your continuing support.

I think he needs to step down but then again the entire team is failing. The top order is the biggest worry and has been for some time. I will go through the quiz tomorrow when I have more time as nothing is that obvious with you.
