I planned on having my last drink three drinks ago but this thread is far too entertaining to stop. 

I'm still on it as well.

Spread butter - Knife - Shank

Spread wings - Bird - Magpie

If this is some sick joke then I am not finding it amusing!

The Riddler never sleeps. However the Riddler will only provide one more clue before trade period re-opens tomorrow: the player is from interstate. 

So we're getting too close, too soon.  Or you would tease us with more hints than just providing us with one hint, & very broad at that.

Actual butter, straight from the fridge, is really hard to spread.

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

Interstate teams with wings are the Eagles, Crows and Swans. The 2 players I found from those lists who have obvious "ocean bound" names are Beech (beach) and Shaw (shore) from the crows. I'm still missing the butter knife bit but

Which player spreads both butter and his wings, yet remains ocean-bound?

The deal must involve a mega trade between goal coast, brisbane and the dees. Player in question, Pearce Hanley goes to the suns, rockiff to the dees, and draft picks to the lions. 

Hanley remains ocean bound as he just moves from brisbane to gold coast, bondi beach?. Spreads wings as he is a midfielder/winger (or because he came from Ireland on a plane?), and spreads butter could refer to kerryGOLD an irish company which produces diary including butter. 

Surely this must be it right? LOL a bit left field but the best i could do

You can get beech wood butter knives or butter presses. 

Not sure a mature age recruit is the key to our future though, even if he's a very handy player who would've played by now if not for being stuck behind the leagues best forward line.


On the Adelaide list Melbourne have expressed interest in Harry Dear son of Hawks premiership player Paul. Cannot see any connection to butter though.

Butter is pretty dear these days

This could be a trick - where are you located Riddler? If you are interstate, then the player could be Victorian.

Yes, the player is an Interstate insomniac. Tom ( the sleepwalker ) Rockliff (  african butterfly )


I read the riddle differently. Who on our list is ocean bound? If they go, we get something in return. Ocean destinations maybe West Coast, Gold Coast don't consider Brisbane coastal. The only name mentioned as trade bait is Lynden Dunn and maybe Vandenberg. So my answer is the player in question Lynden rather, than who we receive.

Sounds spot on dc - Salem's family own a restaurant or two so fair to say he has 'spread butter' at some stage!

Toby Nankervis? Currently at home in Tassie which is bound by ocean. Is a swan so has wings to spread. The letters for KNIVES is in his name which can spread butter, or there is a Toby Knife. Bit obscure I know

No, that's Toby Jugs... he'll get those as he gets older.

Jake Lever, a crow with wings (whom we had very high interest in 2014 National Draft)

Lever 1: Knife to spread butter

Lever 2: On a vessel, the vertical separation between the lines of force buoyancy and weight is known as the 'righting lever'

Where can I collect my meat tray?

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
