    Number three has indeed been answered but I'll leave it open for a bit longer.

    For the virtual bonus point, what common factor links these ten players?

    We’ll soon find out. 😉 

    The virtual bonus point will likely be yours. Or someone else, someone other than me. I’m really sch!tt at working out what links the players. 😭

    We're about to cop a thunderstorm here and I'd best turn my computer off, but not before revealing the common factor being that all the players are currently on our list. 

    The reference in the OP to "since the year 2000" was a pink herring.  Sorry!

    Thanks to those who played.  See ya all later.

    Something more than 'Sorry' needed, 'Good' Sir. Wikipedia-ing and Demonwiki-ing - precious time I will not get back!

    I have no idea what anyone in here is saying. It might as well be in alien. 

    I reckon you'd qualify on two fronts, Ethan.

    1.  Solving cryptic clues requires a warped mind.

    2.  You're ET.  Your first language is alien.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
