Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Although a controversial figure, he is still known as the King of Aussie Rules football?

Answer: Wayne Carey

A great player who made a name for himself playing for The North Melbourne Kangaroos. However, later in his career an unsavoury incident with a team mate's wife has forced a move to the Adelaide Crows.
2. Without doubt who is known as the King of the Mountain?

Answer: Peter Brock

Peter Perfect won an unprecedented 9 Bathurst victories 1972 to 1987, plus the Bathurst 24 Hour in November 2003; all held at the unforgiving Mount Panorama circuit. The 24 hour victory was a sign of Holden's domination with the Monaros coming 1st and 2nd and annihilating the best cars from around the world.
3. This King dominated at the highest level in rugby league.

Answer: Wally Lewis

Wally Lewis dominated all levels of the game. He was one of the most hated figures in New South Wales during State of Origin series.
4. This cricketer has many nicknames but many regard him as the King of Spin. Who is he?

Answer: Shane Warne

Affectionately known as "Warnie". Controversy is something that many associate with Warnie. Most recently a Mobile phone scandal and a drug suspension for the use of a diuretic have dominated the headlines.
5. This retired swimmer at the peak of his powers was known as the King of the pool. Who is he?

Answer: Kieran Perkins

The man who dominated the 1500 metres during the early-mid 1990s. He set many world records which many believed would never be beaten. These, however, were to be broken by a sensational swimmer called Grant Hackett. Perkins will always be remembered for his against the odds victory at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics (he nearly missed qualifying for the Final - he qualified for the Final as 8th out 8).
