Demonstone's King's Birthday Kranium Busting Kinda Bewildering Kafkaesque Braintwister

We're facing a long wait until our next game.  Let's kill some time before we kill the Pies.

This team of past and present Demon players goes right back to the 1950s.  Some are better known than others.

In a return to traditional values, there is just a 19th and 20th man and none of this new-fangled interchange and substitute nonsense.

What common factor unites all these players?

Answers in a PM only please!

    Time for a clue?  Why not.

    The answer is associated with that one day in September.

    Sorry about that misleading clue.  It wasn't a reference to Grand Final Day at all.

    Just a little Dad joke you might say.  :D

    I was wondering how you will be connecting the clue with the solution.

    Not if you tacked it onto a previous discussion, @Timothy Reddan-A'Blew.

    I delete old PMs as a matter of course.  Send it through in a new message.

    I did.

    Done.

    You did done good and answered correctly.

    That makes six posters who have worked it out.  I'll leave the teaser up overnight for any latecomers.

    Could we please have a drum roll followed by an emphatic "boom" and a "tish".

    All the players in this team had a father who also played VFL/AFL.

    The twist is that none of the fathers played for Melbourne.

    My sneaky "one day in September" clue was a reference to Fathers' Day.

    Other little hints scattered around include "Dad joke", "farther" and "sun".

    Thank you to all participants. 

    I may post another of these during the long break post KB if there is enough interest.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      The Demons are back on the road again for the third time this season when they take on the red hot ladder leaders the Sydney Swans at the SCG. Can the Demons take another big scalp? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.
