We used to have a bit of fun with these a few years ago on the old Demonology. 

The answer to each cryptic clue is a Demons player from this century.

Please limit yourself to TWO answers so as to give others a chance.

The judge (ie. me) has the final say.  Have at it cryptic fans....

 

1.  He was on a standard with Roger. 

Darren Jolly

2.  More suited to another sport.

Rohan Bail

3.  Classic and/or type of player.

4.  Second rate Collingwood hack.

5.  Smack a head coach or another one?

Luke Tapscott

6.  Given stern directions to finish up.

7.  Our favourite umpire?

Ricky Petterd

8.  Weights program proved helpful.

Steven Armstrong

9.  Matches?  Danger!

10.  Could have been another Rivers?

11.  Sounds like he was cool ... deep down.

James Sellar

12.  It was surprising to hear he was good.

When are you updating??

     Thank you linesmen, thank you ballboys and I hope you've had a bit of fun.

    Thank you demonstone.  Clever work!

    Now the amusing part where everyone has to show their failed workings.

    Classic and/or type of player.  Trent Ormond-Allen (anagram-homophone). Thought the classic may have referred to the cliched MFC hyphen (also denoting or/and of a name).

    Given stern directions to finish up. Gary Moorcroft. Stern-directions - the rudder on a sailing craft (homophone of croft). Moor - to finish up sailing. 

    It was surprising to hear he was good. Heretier (homophone) Lumumba/Harry-O (the Oh = surprising).

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
