Beware Witches Hats bearing 'gifts'...

Something to do with starting with a very high jumper number and then changing to a much lower one.

 

Perhaps it’s just the player wore more than one jumper number for Melbourne. Jetta fits this but he startrted with 39, then wore 50 In one game, then back to 39.

Similar for Jack Grimes who started with 16 and then changed up to 31.

What he said, so I claim silver!

We jointly apologise for our lack of quiz etiquette.

 You guys are lucky it’s not a @Demonstonequiz. Your joint apology would fall on deaf ears. 😉

Lampers has indeed killed the quiz and is thus disqualified.

Demonstone is the winner.

Lampers also managed to kill part B which was going to ask which two went from a low number to a high number.

Mods, I expect a heavy suspension (unless it turns out Lampers' last name is Cotchin in which case a mild rebuke is fine).

 

In what order did Steven Tingay wear 52, 2 and 15 and Sean Charles wear 44, 1, 18? These orders  as recorded in my copy of 'Melbourne F.C. Since 1858 - An Illustrated History' (2008), suggest they join Nev and ol' Grimey?...

Very good. Add Peter Moore as well who went from 10 to 30.

@Witches Hat, I presume @WalkingCivilWar and I just get a Cotchin no-hard-feelings handshake?

You get outright second @Timothy Reddan-A'Blewfor picking up my mistakes!! I should have done my research more thoroughly.

According to the impeccable Demonwiki, Tingay went 52 -> 15 ->2 and Charles 44 -> 18 -> 1.

That is also how I recall the sequence.  Your source may be incorrect (?).

Thanks for the various follow-ups, @Witches Hat an @Demonstone. No mistakes there, Hat; my Tingay/Charles post was only an (albeit speculative😉) question. My google has 'lost the link' to Demonwiki, Stone, and the other usual sources are short on the info, so I only had recourse to my book. Stinga was No.2 in his pomp in the '90s (pivotal in rusting my children onto the Dees, btw); I certainly couldn't remember him in 15 later on.

Stone deserves the silver, Hat. @WalkingCivilWar and I will happily podium, dead-heated, on the third tier, eh, WCW?


...though does it count that Stinga got - but never got to debut in - No.17 at the Swans?😁

Sure! We can share the podium. I’ll get Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. You can have what’s left. 
 

You’re welcome!

Forgot to acknowledge Tim’s heartfelt thanks in advance

@Witches Hat, we need all the quiznerds we can get, so I think newbie(?) @Lampers - who, after all, was impressively quick! - should be let off with an in-(quiz)house reprimand. And maybe a little something from the trophy cabinet?

Definitely a Certificate of Achievement at the very least!

Sorry, my (correct) answer was in the wrong quiz

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Sunday’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • PREGAME: Fremantle

    After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
