    In all honesty, I stumbled onto the answer. It was one of Demonstone’s clues alone that did the trick. I never would’ve got it just by the players’ names. Even now I can’t see why certain names are there.

    Less confused now? Probs more confused, amirite?

    It will all make sense when the solution is revealed in full.

    1. And Tilly and Mazer didn't?!

    2. As you can see, yes.

    Without giving too much away, DS: I’m not entirely knowledgeable about the thing that links these players. One of your clues alone is what prompted me to have not so much a stab in the dark; rather, a stab in the half-light.

    edit: @Timothy Reddan-A'Blew, there’s no clue in the above. But gimme a little time, and with Demonstone’s permission, I’ll come up with one.

    @Allus Monk has identified the key, but is still looking for the correct lock.

    I'll be away from Demonland until lunchtime and shall reveal the answer then (probably).

    I would rather that others not provide their own clues, but I can't stop them doing that.

    Don't forget that I have no more of these teasers up my sleeve, so this may be the last time you can participate.

    After submitting 2 wrong answers, I'm gun shy from having another crack at this one.

    But would Steve Waugh, Mark Waugh and Evelyn Waugh be a suitable line for this quiz?

    Demonstone says he’d prefer we don’t give clues. But I’m sure it’s ok for me to say no, those names wouldn’t be suitable.

    PS: not gonna lie, hella proud that I solved one of DS’s quizzes before you, Mo. 😘

    No room for Auberon Waugh? (That's not in any way a clue. At least, it's not intended to be one. I have no idea of the connection.)

    I was going that 'geopolitical' path (as represented by the twins), too - through some PM-ing, I now at least feel like I'm dealing with a few less 'locks', but I can't find my keys anywhere!

    Meanwhile, paradoxically, as readers may have been hearing in my posts, it has been a case of 'This means Waugh!'

    I need more time. I might have to screenshot the team and the clues then not revisit the thread until I too have cracked it.

    OK, fair enough, BA; that's one of the (lesser!) strategic options I was foolishly considering as an alternative to craven surrender. @Demonstone, please note: BA and I would like more time...

     

    ...and another clue?

    I can confirm that the team has nothing to do with matters Waugh.

    @reynolds46 has supplied the correct answer, but no other responses to date.

    By popular demand, I'll leave this open.

    Another clue, you say?  In addition to the one I slipped in this morning?

    OK.  Demonstone.

    Hey DS, idk if you’ve read the entire thread but I took the liberty of slipping in a little clue as well.

     I kinda feel sorry for the likes of Tim and Bombay Aircon. I know only too well how frustrating it is when you can’t crack it while others around you can.

    I hope that’s ok.

    Maybe I should’ve PM-ed this.

    Just found it!  The clue is indeed little and perfectly OK with me.

    Sorry, @Bombay Airconditioning. I was hardly more confident of this answer than the handful I'd already tried!

    I'm still waiting for a longshot listener from the loneliest throngs to draw a weapon from their singleton holster.  :D

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
