Mallett is correct.   All other suggestions are not.

Only player eliminated for being too good thus far is WCW.

I just worked out number 6. 🤓

Massie not correct, I'm sorry Mazer.

WCW has sent me a PM with two correct answers but is not allowed to post them here according to the draconian rules of this brainteaser. 

Do other players think I should make an exception and let her show off on this occasion?

YES!

Oh, you said other posters. 
As you were.

Try Callum Ferguson if Bob Massie is incorrect.

mo64 found a way to get around the two correct answers rule. 😆

No he didn't.  Ferguson is incorrect!

Only two correct answers per player at this stage, mo.

I've now received two PMs with the correct answer to Q5 and have relented to congratulate WCW and mo64 for working out that the answer is Andy Bichel, being an anagram of "I belch" when brought up.

Mazer also sent me a correct answer, perhaps unaware that he still had the right to post in this thread.  He doesn't any more after cracking Q8 by answering Colin "Funky" Miller, or one who grinds away all day in his mill.

WCW also got Q6 (edit: also Q7) correct but I'll save those reveals for later.

Still a few to go.  Have at it Demonlanders!

I don't think Trumper played in the last 50 years deever!  Not the correct answer I'm afraid.

Should probably read the rules.😁

Not Katich and I'm not sure how you made that connection.  :unsure:

I was thinking of his mate pup.

I guess I'm only good at the literal and not the cryptic.😁

That doesn't make it any clearer!

Solving cryptics requires a warped mind.  Yours is clearly not warped enough!  :D

I'm stumped

So, you thought Mick was a reference to Michael Clarke?  And that because Clarke’s nickname is Pup and a pup is a dog and dogs don’t like cats and Simon Katich’s name has a first syllable that sounds like Cat and therefore if Clarke was a selector he wouldn’t select Katich for this reason?

Is that what you’re thinking?

for the love of god, please say no

I'm not even close to your league.

I must say I'm at the stage of offering cash for answers.

You may send me your questions on the back of an unmarked $50 bill.  :D

I'm thinking it may be time to reveal both the correct answers that WCW has in the bank.  Any objections?

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
