I haven't seen a lot of him, but my understanding was that his surname derived from his manner of kicking at goal.

Well, well, well. After a two year hiatus, the Riddler has decided to return. Entering the second week of a tumultuous trade period in which we've seen unexpected chess moves and the demise of player loyalty, there are bound to be rumours floating around the airwaves. Will Jordan Lewis arrive? Will the Hibberd deal go through? Is there any truth to the Kurt Tippett murmurings? But fear not, for the Riddler does not deal in speculation. The Riddler only deals in cold, hard, facts. Contained in this Riddle is perhaps the key to the future of the Melbourne Demons. Unlock it, if you dare.

Riddle me this: Which player spreads both butter and his wings, yet remains ocean-bound?

Er?

Well, lock, key = Lachie Weller? 

Lock knife is a common type of knife.
He spreads hard on the wings
Docker (ocean bound)

Fills a need but re-signed this year.

Lachie Henderson

Lock key

Henderson butter beans

(eddie) Henderson wrote/sun Butterfly (wings)

bound to Geelong (ocean)

 

 

 

he says "yet remains ocean bound". note he doesn't say "is/was/will be ocean bound"

this implies something about the player is related to the ocean rather than the existing club

How about Tom Scully.

Scull is a type of boat - Knife is pretty self explanatory

I'd say Barlow.
In the old days on the docks a "bar of butter" was used with the ropes involved. Stuck at a dock where ships are ocean bound.

Barlow's lark - Wikipedia

Type of bird

It's actually incredible that both Griffin and Barlow from Fremantle (bound by ocean) are a type or brand of knife and the name of something with wings.

There's practically a knife for every name you google. 

There's probably a Knifeduck Buoy knife.

I've just ordered a fixed-blade Viojo-Rainbow hunting knife on ebay.

What sort of psychopath would butter their sandwich with a Stanley knife? I want him at the club.

but would barlow be "the key to the future of the Melbourne Demons". i don't think so.

Hmmmm. Good point. Back to square one.....

 

Where has the riddler gone? We need another clue or a confession that this was all for his/her 'laffs.

If it was, well played :)

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
