Time for another clue, which will either enlighten you or frustrate you even further.

To the team already published above, you may add a coach in Leon Cameron, plus three emergencies in Wayne Carey, Greg Williams and Jeff White.   

Does this help or hinder?  :D

Hinder. I vote hinder.

A little aggressive I would've thought. Pretty content actually :) I just perceive most posters as fanciful. It's like if you go and read another clubs forum. Half the stuff you read makes you laugh at how biased it is. I'm very even-keeled and am completely impartial. Maybe being slightly more critical than most, aka the way Gary Lyon sees Melbourne.  

you're gary lyon?

i should have guessed

 

I'm seeing authors, of a certain genre possibly?

Nothing to do with authors I'm afraid.

I'm off to have an earlyish night in the sack and will check in the morning to see if anybody has solved it.

Could this be the first ever brainteaser to confound the combined brilliance of Demonland minds?


I officially give up. But not for want of trying. I’ve spent an unhealthy amount of time looking at those names to the point that I can almost reel them off by memory. 

What's the 'DRUM', Demonstone? ?

Or should I say, 'Watts the...'?

You are not impartial, and you simply took a chance to pot a fellow poster who is just having a bit of fun and filling in the gaps between games. 

How did I pot a fellow poster?  That implies I potted him personally. So please show me where I did that. I await that. You're the only one who made it personal.

As a minuscule clue, there is one particular Demonlander (who I can't recall participating in these teasers) who would instantly identify the common factor.

This was a reference to @JimmyGadson whose current and past username (Steve Jordan) are both drummers.

Showing my age, Buddy Rich was the first to Count, followed by the dollop of Cream, then that demon Stone...

No Gadds, Purdies or Porcaros on AFL lists let alone a Modeliste...

Sir demonstone, if I may, here's another MFC 22 to keep things going. From a squad of only 33, I was forced to make one wicked selection, I'm afraid.

Ron Barassi, Matthew Bate, Ben Beames, Barry Bourke, Phil Carman, Don Cordner, Kevin Dyson, Brian Dixon, Steve Febey, Brad Green, Rod Grinter, Greg Healy, Peter Keenan, John Lord, Graham Molloy, Ian Ridley, Billy Stretch, Jim Stynes, Sammy Weideman, Brian Wilson, Jack Viney, Adem Yze

 

And Viney .!!

With @demonstone's emergence as puzzle maker extraordinaire coming to the forefront, I suggest he take over @The Riddler's position in putting forward cryptic clues as to who we will be trading for come the off season.☝️

Or perhaps he was the Riddler to start with?!!! ?


I thought it was position they were taken in the draft - until I got to Trevor Barker.

Apart from Dyson and Dixon, they are all in alphabetical order by surname.

D'oh! and double-D'oh! Alphabetical order was intended, though not relevant to the answer, I'm afraid, folks.

Have a look at my first sentence, and think about what group might be as exclusive as only 33 strong. And a half hint: my wicked selection is my last.

I have received Master Rackham's correct answer and the Gold is on its way to him! Everyone else seems to be stumped! Silver and Bronze still up for grabs!

Ooooh, song lyrics. As per trade week:

"Even if you've got Daniel Rich, a trade for Young and Hart is much better by far."

Ron Barassi, Matthew Bate, Ben Beames, Barry Bourke, Phil Carman, Don Cordner, Brian Dixon, Kevin Dyson, Steve Febey, Brad Green, Rod Grinter, Greg Healy, Peter Keenan, John Lord, Graham Molloy, Ian Ridley, Billy Stretch, Jim Stynes, Jack Viney, Sammy Weideman, Brian Wilson, Adem Yze...

So, as I've said, everyone (except gold medallist Mazer) seems to be stumped! Mazer said it was hard, so sorry, everyone if it's too hard?! Are you thinking there might be a catch? Try thinking of the slips by them...

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
