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.

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.

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.

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.

    The tough on baller won his second Keith 'Bluey' Truscott Trophy in a narrow battle with skipper Max Gawn and Alex Neal-Bullen and battled on manfully in the face of a number of injury niggles.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
