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.

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.

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.

Funny I was going to consider Kelvin until I noticed his average was 2.91

Oh well , lol

That was what threw me too.

He didn't average a "bit over 3 goals per game" with Melbourne.

99 from 34.

'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.

Sorry, didn't read the 2 posts prior to mine so was not rubbing it in so to speak.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
