Never seen a Valvoline tat WCW but each to their own. What’s the prize?

Ok, while we’re waiting for Timothy Redden A’Blew to throw another Tuesday Time-Waster at us, I offer this quickie…

I have a tattoo that comprises a black outline with a small section of solid colours, those being red and blue. It’s not a Dees tattoo but the red and blue are the exact same shades as ours. Not our home strip navy blue, but one of our away/clash strips blue (royal blue).

It is an iconic image. Instantly recognised the world over. It is never reproduced with any colours other than the red and the blue. Unless there’s some fool out there who dares to mess with a classic. 
Can you guess what I have tattooed on my person?

You’ll find out if/when you guess correctly. 😉 


A clue: while the red and blue part jumps out at you, so to speak, they are only about 10% of the image space. The red and blue are together and are a solid (filled-in) element. 

Ah, so it's not Domino's! (My shock-face reaction was to a tattoo of same, not the product. To pizza, of any persuasion, I too am partial. Indeed, fully!) Nothing from me just yet, then, WCW; you have the floor.

 

Ok, big clue comin’ atchya…

It’s got to do with music. 

 

Solved 😍 (and what an incredible tatt, that would be).

Another clue (coz this was meant to be a quickie):

 it’s got to do with a British musician who passed away, breaking my heart in the process, in 2016 aka annus horribilis. 
Surely that gives it away (?)

Ziggy's flash?

That’s it!

Well done FND! Your prize?

My love and best wishes. How’s that for a prize? You’re welcome!

And it’s non-transferable too, btw. 😁


To keep the quiz theme going, go back to the magnificent cover of Sgt Peppers. There are four people in that artwork who are still alive. Who are they? I'll give you two of them...Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr (both there twice). So, who are the other two?

Um, I think I pipped him? But, by our mutual 'Likes', I think we're happy to share?!

Is that young Jake Bowey on your arm? Must have been playing on Hawkins.

Whoever it is, that lad’s insane!

 

Next, then - these twenty-three MFC men select themselves. Where's the 'tether'? (PM me)

John Lord, Hassa Mann, Ken Emselle, Bob Gormly, Ted Lees, John Toll, Darryl Schwarz, Peter Weekes, Greg Wells, Ray Carr, Stephen Kerley, Kim Smith, John Tossol, Steven Stretch, Mark Bradly, Mark Jamar, Nick Smith, Kyle Cheney, Jack Watts, Max Gawn, Mitch Clisby, Ben Kennedy, Tim Smith.

The squad of 23 is sufficient for a modern team but I doubt they'd compete; several have single-figure games tallies, and they wouldn't have all positions covered, I'd say. But it is a unique squad, consisting of players who debuted with the Dees since my childhood second favourite player, John Lord RIP, himself debuted. For nothing other than convenience, I've listed them in debut date order.

  • 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.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
