I thought by swashbuckling opener, @Timothy Reddan-A'Blew meant he’s the first player on this list and not necessarily an opener in real life. 
Like @Salems Lot(above), I can’t veer away from it being a Marsh because of “swamp.”

All I can offer is Doug Bollinger. Bog for swamp, and the slimmest chance of there being in existence a Spanish boat called a Dullinger (stop laughing!)

Methinks this guy’s gonna end up carrying his bat. Unless of course Tim is kind enough to give us a clue (?)

Sorry, no, Salem, though that dynasty is tempting.

You've all played very nicely, thank you; WCW most entertainingly, with creative flourishes of her bat.

He's a genuine opener, as the rest of the team is genuinely used (with a bit of shuffling in the middle order).

Think what could swamp a boat? Then say it with a separate-syllable '-ed' on the end.

    David Warner???!!

    As in, wave-ed? And a Spanish boat called a Dorner or similar?

    Damn! Seems Mazer beat me to it.

    I'm late to the party but no 1 is Warner. No-one got it coz the VIN number was sanded off the boat.

    I was over the page and missed this, Mazer! Humble apologies. And double points for the humorous hoick!

    Wave-ed dorna it is!

    And another 0.1 for you, @WalkingCivilWar, just later to the party.

    Thanks again everyone!

    That’s one of those runs you score when you or your batting partner get out but don’t realise you crossed on the wicket!

    Ok, so I’ve got a quick one in case one of Tim’s eleven contracts Covid. 
    The clue is: Catty Car

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      Before Sunday, the last time the Brisbane Lions had walked onto the turf of the Melbourne Cricket Ground, they celebrated the pinnacle of the sport - an AFL premiership secured in emphatic fashion for the second consecutive year.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
