    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.

    • AFLW REPORT: Geelong

      Melbourne wrapped up the AFLW home and away season with a hard-fought 14-point win over Geelong at Kardinia Park. The result secured second place on the ladder with a 9–3 record and a home qualifying final against the Brisbane Lions next week.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
