Beware Witches Hats bearing 'gifts'...

 

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

  • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

    The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

    It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

    The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

    The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

    Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
