Demonstone 23,596 Posted September 19, 2021 Posted September 19, 2021 (edited) As the thread title suggests, this is the second-last in an overlong series of football related brainteasers. After lobbying the owners of this site, they have agreed that not only is it not compulsory to play along, but you don't even have to read any further if you so wish. What a time to be alive!! I would rate today's as being of medium difficulty but the final one that will be posted on Wednesday afternoon is extremely challenging. In keeping with this being the week of the Demon, all the players in this team ran out for Melbourne. What else do they have in common? Please confine your answers to PM only to give more posters a chance to participate. Incorrect suggestions will be posted to narrow the field of possibilities.

Taylor H/F: David Williams Garry Lyon Chris Connolly F: Glen Elliott Darren Bennett Rodney Wright R: John Reid Hassa Mann Greg Healy I/C: Michael Young Paul O'Brien Nick Carter Andrew Dale Edited September 19, 2021 by Demonstone Common name for Richard censored Quote

Demonstone 23,596 Posted September 19, 2021 Author Posted September 19, 2021 A poster has suggested that they are all right foot kicks. While this may be the case, it's not the answer I'm looking for. Quote

Demonstone 23,596 Posted September 19, 2021 Author Posted September 19, 2021 We now have enough correct responses to close this one down. The answer is that all the players in this team share a surname with Australian Test cricketers. Gold Medal: Lucifer's Hero Silver: Timothy Reddan-A'Blew Bronze: Taipei Demon 1 Quote
