Deevoted, another forum i frequent (a history one) often have quizzes

The winning poster gets to pose the next quiz

If he declines the originator offers a new one

adds a bit of variety

just a thought if you get stumped coming up with new ones

Thats not a bad idea. I cant see myself doing this every week. I'm not sure about the longivity of it once the players get into full training and then the season starts. But so far, it seems that its been well received. As I said earlier, it was trial and error, with getting the 1st clue just right.

I an open for suggestions and ideas, if it means keeeping it going. I started it, that doesnt mean I wouldnt share the concept.

So far it seems popular enough.

Melbourne signed two players who were 15 to play in the U19 because zoning was going to be scraped, the players were David Schwarz and Neitz.

This one has gone cryptic. The answer is in there,if you study it hard enough.

HINT: The player is not a ruckmen or tall. Eliminate all players before 1985,thats doesnt mean this player started in 1985. I'm just narrowing down the era a bit. This might seperate the men from the boys.

Reminder - One guess/post per clue. (read the opening post if in doubt) Good luck.

Who am I ......... (1st Clue)

Ballarat and drive-thrus are something I have in common. Ask my brothers.

Weather's magnificent and now that Redleg's turned up we're concentrating on sorting out the experimenting inquiry.

Enjoyed watching the cup from someone's apartment overlooking the beach.

Winning trainer a former Demon and James McDonald rode the second placegetter. I knew we did the right thing by letting him go!

I did 4 days in Broadbeach over the cup - they get right into the cup up here. Sat for two hours at a cafe drinking fabulous coffee and watching horrifically dressed women off to parties balanced on feet torturing 9" heels - it was amusing if not a little grotesque.

Thanks to all those that have been offering encouargement , positive suggestions etc much appreciated.

And to the posters that have been having a crack. I have taken it all onboard, but still unsure if I can keep doing it for much longer.

In case some are unware of the concept. I would suggest reading my opening post.

All the clues / quizzes prior to this post have been guessed correctly. They are done and dusted.

A brand new quizz will follow this post. have fun with it, and good luck.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
