Demonstone's ROOMBA (Run Out Of More Brilliant Appellations)

B. Lovett not only qualifies for the team, he's in it.

I suspect that @Cranky Franky has worked out that all the players in my team have double letters in both their first name and their surname.

To avoid making it too obvious, I went with just the first initial in naming the side.

With names in full, the team reads as follows:

B:       Neville Jetta     Darren Louttit     Matthew Collins

H/B:   Judd McVee     Harrison Petty      Glenn Molloy

C:       Glenn Lovett     Glenn Elliott     Kelly O'Donnell

H/F:    Isaac Weetra     Ross Dillon     Barrie Vagg

F:       Jeff Garlett     Darren Bennett     Terry Gleeson

R:       Darren Jolly     Brett Lovett     Hassa Mann

I/C:    Will Verrall     Barry Denny     Lloyd Burgmann     Russell Colcott

 

Elliott, O'Donnell, Bennett, Verrall and Colcott boast three sets of double letters.  That's just showing off.

Thanks to all who had a go or at least took an interest.

 

 

My steel-capped boots, and vigorous application thereof, were appropriately pre-emptive!

 

I took the 'first name initial only' as some kind of important clue and wandered around in the wilderness for a long time.

Coincidentally, R. Herring would be eligible for the team.

Brother, my cup is empty.

How about we send you answers for future brain teasers and you turn them into a brain teaser?

eg. All their middle names are John. They all debuted in round 3


Ooh, I've got an idea for a team. Harking back to one of the original draft vexations of Demonland. 

We must all be willing to take up some slack until Demonstone rediscovers his quizmojo.

I'll certainly be happy to help, LG.

If not annoy...😁

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • PREGAME: Fremantle

    After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
