So the half-forward line will be a reference to a band with the word “blue” in it based on Jack Silvagni playing for the blues?

Moody Blues?

That's correct WCW.  You may need to think a little laterally for this one.

The centre line is probably the most obscure of the lot.

Disappointed you couldn't find a spot for:

Stewart Loewe, Mark O'Connor and David Mundy

 

If you're referring to Painters and Dockers, there is no member called "Loewe".

Close enough, Skuit!  Donald 'Duck' Dunn and Willie Hall were members of The Blues Brothers.  Blueboy Jack Silvagni also had a brother (Ben) who played at Carlton for that delicious added layer of intrigue.


I'm truly astounded at the level of obscure knowledge of musical bands harboured within the minds of Demonlanders. 

Thankyou Demonstone for the challenge, even though I knew none of the answers.

You guys have a fantastic knowledge of bands, amazing!

Got it!  Chris and Rich Robinson and Mark Ford played in the Black Crowes.  Andrew McLeod was a Crow  but common decency precludes me from adding a descriptor!

I'm enjoying finding so many fellow Black Crowes fans here, and in the seniors playing list evidently.

Had me stumped until the clue, but then this one opened up for me, only to find Tim beat me to it... damn it!
