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: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
