Demonstone's Early Enigmatic Exasperator

Featured Replies

With the Port game being in the early slot of Thursday night, this week's quiz is going up a day before usual as well.

Again we have a team (a quite good one, you'd have to admit) of AFL/VFL players past and present, in position from the backline. 

What do they have in common?

B:  Ross Thornton   Harris Andrews   Mark Roberts

H/B:  Easton Wood   Peter Foster   Frank Davis

C:  Josh Kelly   Tim Watson   Jayden Hunt

H/F:  Scott Thompson   Jack Watts   Taylor Adams

F:  Liam Ryan   Sam Day   Zac Fisher

R:  Peter Moore   Shane Crawford   Scott West

I/C:  Jarrod Berry   Lewis Taylor   Colin Garland   Daryl Griffiths

At this early stage?  Short answer, "No".  Long answer, "Noooooooo".  :D

 

A found a few…

They all have first names and surnames;

They all brush their teeth with their right hand;

They all kicked a goal after the siren to win a game in their backyards.

How do you know this?

Despite Mazer Rackham's James Bond joke above, he's just PMed me with the correct answer.

Happy to leave it open for longer if people still wish to torture themselves.

Chuck? Or music -related. Now I'm thinking it's film/cinema linked.

Sorry that it made you vomit, bob.  Not music related this week.

Well in that case, they were all involved in the film industry. Actors, directors, Oscar winners is my best shot. 


Hf line is all Aussie... Jack Thompson, Naomi Watts, and, um, ah, hmm, Philip Adams?

I only ever get two in a set and I'm usually wrong on them, too

I think enough people have hit upon the correct answer.

Not only are the players' surnames the same as movie stars, they are all female actors.

Mazer Rackham, maximum bob and Fanatique Demon all share this week's prize which is my AFLX All Nations team (liberties may have been taken with some names!).

The Players:  Peter German, Ben Holland, Heath Scotland, Andrew Ireland, Barnaby French, Andrew Welsh, Des English and Ray Finn.

The Coach:  Wayne Brittain

The Reserves:  "Turkey" Tom Carroll, "Aussie" Jones, Mark "Russian" Jamar, Kevin "Hungary" Bartlett, Charlie Cameroon.

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • PREGAME: Fremantle

    After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
