Rod Grinter - sure he started as HFF before dominating on the HBF

I thought Rod Grinter came from up Shepparton way

It's obvious from the response that your efforts are appreciated.

Getting the 1st clue about right is the killer.

The early posts I did, werent lasting long enough to make use of the clues to follow.

Perhaps I have it about right now. We'll see :)

I'll post a new one tomorrow. early to mid afternoon.

FWIW I used to post regular quizzes on Demonology and found it difficult to keep the masses guessing for long.

So I found out. Someone should shoot google etc. I'm suspecting its not making it easy to keep them stumped for too long.

Or perhaps I target all our supporters suffering from alzheimers. lol

And then there a lot that have memories like elephants.

Anyway whatever its a bit of fun, takes the mind of all the media crap thats going on atm.

It seems I have been a bit too generous with my 1st clue.

I enjoy the questions, Deevoted. A nice touch, indeed.

Thx 45. I have had a fair few say the same. I wasnt sure how it would be received

Apart from the tanking drama, theres isnt much happening.So I decided to have a bit of fun.

I've been caught short, trying to keep up and make it so its enjoyable for anyone thats wants to have a go.

Athol Webb?

Sorry Jack, the last one ended, OMR got it. I plan to post a new one tomorrow.

Hows the Gold Coast btw?

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!

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

The Gold Coast is great for a holiday.Doubt I would want to live up there. I have driven there and back 3 times for hols.

The time I decided to fly, my days of driving thatfar have past me.

WA is great, I could live there. Been once and thought it was a great place.

Good luck sorting that out, like everyone else I put forward my views about it. Didnt differ much from anyone else.

But Sportsbet sticking their noses in, isnt good, I have a feeling, in yrs to come,if they arent put in their box, they will have more say on betting of AFL games etc. If bettting gets too invloved, it wont be for the good of the game, imho Needs to be balanced.

Junior riding the winner, explains why he quit footy ;)

    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.
