Okay, I've done my best.

Be generous it's my first attempt.

I thought I'd give Demonstone a chance to play in one.

There is a small prize in the offing.

There are also no criteria for cricketer's names except they all played in international cricket.

Good luck.

1.A mouse that's not so little.

2. Bowler faster than a gun.

Paul Reiffel.

3. Angel giving jumbled warnings

4.Some money for an English truck.

Bill Lawry.

5. This key can get through state lines.

Allen Border

6. Backward nod to this man as hard as nails.

SIr Don Bradman.

7. Never lost according to his fan(s)

8. Colorful mixed up romance
Cameron Green.
9.This cat never drank.

10. Never ran but made the most.

Tangles.
 

They are a little easier.😁

Yes sorry its jumbled as in anagram.

Another clue....batsman for Australia.


3. Jo Angel?

Too obvious, actually. But he did play Test match cricket in (I think) the early 90s. 
P.S. are they all Australian?

No not all Aussies.

Please tell me there’s no Sri Lankan or Pakistani names! 😆

  • 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.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
