Are you there, @WalkingCivilWar?šŸ˜‰

Hey Tim, while this is right up my alley, Iā€™m not doing as well as you clearly are post-booster shot. I just wish I had the number plate of the truck that slammed into me. šŸ˜­

    @mo64, et al, perhaps a better(?) clue for 19 might have been 'Catchcry for wicketkeeper Maddocks'!?

    Besides, it looks so hard! I reckon Iā€™d struggle even if in perfect health. I doff my hat (my Demons Premiers cap, that is) to the guys who are currently killing it. Three of the best, right there.Ā

    Jeremy Howe? How is he?

    I've missed the Spoonerism.

    Nice 'straight cryptic' try, mo, but 'fraid not again.

    He played with another of the same surname, but they weren't brothers.

    Loving your thinking and creativity, @mo64, but no chocolates with 6 and 10. However, I am calling a tie for you on Glenn L, between you and @Demonstone

    10 Wayne Gordon

    13 Rod Owen?

    14 Peter Moore?

    6 Sam Blease?

    (going from most certain to most tenuous)

    and I'm sure Bayley Fritsch must get a gig but I can't quite see where ...

    Big ticks for 6, 10 and 14, Mazer. Streeting the field!

    However, you get the ' 'fraid not ' this time, for 13; and as you see, previous recipient @mo64Ā has nailed that one. Creative though - Odd rowan!

    And, yes, The Magnet is selected...

    So, I think were down to:
    2. 'Heel, [censored]!'

    4. 'Hay, gathered by May'

    9. 'Banjo-strummy strumpet?'

    11. 'Lament blemish'

    Remember, the [censored] was a homophoneĀ of 'Prymke without me'

    And now, I think, only a dodgy synonym and an uncertain homophone - in anĀ  'Immortal' and a 'Who?...' respectively - need centre clearance and final shots at goal!

    (No clues in that last bit. Just wanted to keep the footy goingšŸ˜)

    4. 1978 3-gamer MICK REA - 'Hay, gathered' = 'rick' / 'May' > Mea (as in O'Dea, I hope!)Ā 

    9. New Immortal BAYLEY FRITSCH (you wereĀ thereĀ @Mazer Rackham!) - 'Banjo-strummy' = 'fraily' / 'strumpet' is the dodgy synonym for female canine...)

    Thanks for playing,Ā @Mazer RackhamĀ Gold, @mo64Ā Silver, and @DemonstoneĀ Bronze. Hope you're better, @WalkingCivilWar, and thanks for watching, @Fanatique Demon

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0ā€“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 ā€” something they havenā€™t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, theyā€™ll need to exorcise the Demons of last yearā€™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?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      ļ»æA hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.Ā  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the ā€œFuchsias.ā€ They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
