Thanks dc for all the work put into the teasers.

You have provided a nice distraction, entertainment and much head scratching during the finals.

    iirc, dc has given the 'denim' medal for such occurrences.

    ... is the correct answer!

    Only joking.  I've had one late entry suggesting it was based on their draft number, but that's not it.

    The quirky thing that all these players share is that, incredibly,  they all had at least one game where they recorded no disposals.  In some cases this was because they sustained an early injury or got knocked out and were unable to continue to play.

    My source for this scarcely believable statistic is the excellent and unimpeachable site Demonwiki, which has a section titled "Lists" that is a most informative and entertaining read.

    The inclusion of the great Robbie Flower in this side was guaranteed to cause confusion.

    Gold medal (again) to Mazer Rackham who did provide hints in his responses and silver to Lucifer's Hero.  

    Well done them.  It was, as promised, a very difficult brainteaser.

    Wow. Hats off to those who knew that.

    You did point out the post that included the word nothing was close.

    Tx.

    Extra points for outing the players who played the whole game and were not injured?

    Edited by leave it to deever

    One thing I noticed in this strainium was that Robbie actually had TWO games of no disposals, and in one of them, he kicked two goals!

    (according to afltables)

    As DS said, was there nothing he couldn't do?

    According to AFL Tables no one had any disposals in that match, with presumably all 14 of our goals soccered off the ground.

    • 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.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
