Here at The Roar, everyone likes to think they know their sport pretty well. But do you really?
Well, we’ve decided to find out the old-fashioned way: a trivia contest.
Each week, you get to prove your sporting chops in our ten-question quiz. The answers are multiple choice, so you’ll get a little bit of a helping hand, but not much.
Once you’ve chosen your answers, be sure to hit “submit” and check your results. Then let everyone know how you went by throwing a comment in the section below, using our grading guide at the bottom of the page to help out.
If you manage to snare the best score of the week, you’ll win a neat little prize pack from The Roar, as well as a severely inflated ego.
If we have more than one user with the highest score, we’ll randomly select who gets the prize pack. The ego inflation, however, will no doubt be spread around.
A couple of details: The quiz asks for your email and username. We won’t publish or share your email address with anyone – it’s only so we can get in touch with you if you’re our weekly winner.
If you don’t have a Roar username, you can simply list any name you’d like, or even better, you can sign up for a Roar account here – it’s free! Please note that only users with a Roar account will be eligible for the prize pack.
So, on to the questions!
1-2 out of 10
Rookie. Looks like you’re not spending as much time on The Roar building up your sporting knowledge as you should be.
3-5 out of 10
Battler. You’re no pushover, but you’re not too far away.
6-8 out of 10
Club stalwart. A fine effort – you certainly know your way around a sporting field.
9-10 out of 10
Hall of famer. A virtuoso performance, worthy of some serious accolades.

Yeah yeah, heard that before - you aren't supposed to do it with Google open mate.

We've got another battler and club stalwart thanks to Chris (4/10) and Fui2014 (7/10)

A couple more mid-range efforts; Jaceman came it at the top-end of the battlers with 5 out of 10, and Prickly_Percy joined the ranks of the club stalwarts with 7 correct answers.

A few more responses coming in; one battler of an effort from Postgamesport, while CJC and The lazy Phoenix both established themselves as club stalwarts.

Well, we've had plenty of responses thus far, ranging from a rookie who could only manage 2 out of 10, plenty of battlers and club stalwarts who put in some serviceable efforts, right up to some bona fide hall-of-famers, including one who didn't miss a single question - congrats to Front Row Dark Arts for his perfect effort. Still plenty of time to equal that top score and go into the draw for a neat little Roar prize pack though, so keep those answers coming in!

4/10 clearly need to watch more rugby and cricket.

Oh dear... 6/10. My job is in peril.

9/10!! Admittedly a couple of those were blind punts that somehow came off and I had no idea about the baseball

5/10. As soon as US sports appear I'm a goner.

Got 8/10. I'll take that. Should have been 9 - had a brain fade on the Bucks question.
