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.

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.

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?

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int

    POSTGAME: Rd 24 vs Collingwood

    The Dees played insipid, error riddled & uninspiring footy all night and in a lightning delayed match they eventually succumbed to Collingwood by 46 points at the MCG in the final game of the year. Thank God this season is finally over. Bring on 2025.
