Wikipedia can answer many questions, but not all of them.

The online encyclopaedia is an amazing source of information and for this reason has become one of the largest websites in the world. But it can be frustrating when it comes to the world of GAA: What is a player's date of birth? Where was he born? When did he make his debut? It is not always possible to find out what you want to know. But there are a few things you can rely upon Wikipedia for: nicknames, occupations and preferred position. In light of this we have devised a quiz to test your Gaelic football knowledge. We have taken the "personal information" section of 10 current or recently retired players and removed the names. However all 10 individuals are recognisable by their nickname, their age, their position, their profession or some combination of the four. We'll give you three minutes to test yourself. Unfortunately, our quiz app will not allow us to embed this picture quiz, so you are going to have to leave SportsJOE briefly to challenge yourself. Do come back soon, we'll be waiting. the link is below.
