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: 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.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Casey Demons secured their first win of the season by the narrow margin of four points against the Box Hill Hawks at Casey Fields on Easter Sunday morning.

  • 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.
