Lots of time to kill before we kill Geelong tomorrow night.  Fancy an EASY challenge?

Here's an  undemanding, uncomplicated and unexacting undertaking for you all.

Below is a team (in position) of current and recent MFC players.   It's a pretty strong side with plenty of marking power up forward, although the on-ball division could use an injection of class.

You know the drill:

*  What is the common factor that connects them all?

*  Answers in a PM only if you would, please.

    Congratulations @La Dee-vina Comedia!  You have indeed solved today's teaser and take home GOLD.

    I really thought that this one was at the easy end of the range and expected more answers by now.

    Clue you say?

    Today's teaser is not related to football or to any other sport for that matter.

    Second place has been claimed by a poster I'll call A. N. Onymous who shuns the limelight but still takes home the SILVER for correctly identifying the connection.

    Running into third place with his maiden attempt is the outsider @Neil Crompton who wraps up BRONZE.

    Other guesses more than welcome.  Keep 'em coming!

    Another new player in @demosaw has opened his account with the correct answer.

    All medals have been won, but I can award a participatory DENIM.

    A bit later than usual, but @Timothy Reddan-A'Blew has predictably nutted out the answer.

    I'll leave the teaser up overnight for others to grapple with should they wish to do so.

    It would be in potential solvers' interests to look at the players' names closely.

    Thanks, Mr D. I'll look forward to the participatory POLYESTER in the mail.

    No more takers?  I'll give it another couple of hours before the big reveal.

    Don't do, don't describe, just be!

    Now, now, Mr D!

     

    Homophonically...

    Yes thrillseekers, all the players in my team share their surname with the name of something.

    In other words, all their surnames are also nouns.

    I've got another teaser ready to go but I'll give them a rest for now.

    Surnames are always nouns.

    You are correct in that surnames are proper* nouns but that doesn't apply to my team.  They all share a surname with an actual thing, an object in real life.

    *  Yours is probably improper.  :D

    Curiously, his is adjectival!

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.

    • NON-MFC: Round 7

      Round 7 is here, with the ANZAC commemoration games taking centre stage. Who are you tipping this week, and which results would be most favourable for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees hit the big Friday night stage for the first and only time this season when they take on the Tigers under lights on ANZAC Eve at the G. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      Before Sunday, the last time the Brisbane Lions had walked onto the turf of the Melbourne Cricket Ground, they celebrated the pinnacle of the sport - an AFL premiership secured in emphatic fashion for the second consecutive year.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
