Who I am? A guessing quiz.


DeeVoted

Recommended Posts

hmmm....i thought 50% of a pas-deux was 1 so i was thinking of players wearing no 1

as for wandflower...never heard of it, but that's not surprising given my lack of knowledge on ballet (lol).....give your wife a pat on the back

Ironically wandflower had nothing to do with Deevoted's line of thinking and if he hadn't mentioned ballet, I wouldn't have guessed Flower and connected the RF communication bit.

Guess I'll put that one down to sheer @rse.

and....i'd have thought 50% of a tu-tu was a one-one = 11 = a player wearing no 11 e.g. Jimma

A win is a win, it doesnt matter how you got there. Btw is there anything else I (we) should know in regards to your missus or any other related member of the family, next of kin?, neighbours,who are also experts in other fields, that you would like to share? Just thought I'd pass it by you,so I can keep it in mind for future reference . :wacko:

I never heard of a wandflower either, but ballet isnt high up on my interests, it just happened to be a dead give-away that worked in your favour.

Kelvin Templeton

Stringrays wins in a photo finish from gsmith!! or did smithy tank?? wheres kero wilson when needed?

The Closest finish in the history of the World D'land quiz. Perhaps Mrs Smith was on the phone he got help up, :)

Either way he got pipped at the post. (so to speak)

Another good win to Stringrays to keep him at / near the top of the leaderboard.And with WJ sailing off into the wild blue yonder, now is a good chance to get a buffer on him. To the other guessees, keep trying.

Ans = Kelvin Templeton
Kelvin Templeton
Footscray to Melbourne 1983
At sixteen years of age Templeton kicked 100 goals for Traralgon in the 1973 Latrobe Valley FL season. He was the second man and still the youngest to kick 100 goals in a season in that competition.
The Dogs' captain had kicked 494 goals, won the 1980 Brownlow, two best-and-fairests and two Coleman medals when he was poached by the Demons as part of a blockbuster $1.2 million deal that also secured Pies skipper Peter Moore. A superstar at Footscray, Templeton was less influential at Melbourne, kicking 99 goals in 34 games before injuries caught up with him.

'This game stinks or should I say well done stingrays' :unsure:

Hate to be a pedant Deevoted however If KT had averaged 3+ goals per game he would have managed 102+ would he not ?

Please keep the clues factual :blink:

Just joshing.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
