    For the first time ever I've gone 'oh, I know it!' within a couple of seconds of looking.

    Almost certainly wrong but I'm just going to savour the moment before I send the PM.

    @Demonstone has swooped in to claim the Gold medal 🥇

    Bravo!!

    Ahh, now we know why @Demonstone gave up authorship of quizzes - he wants to claim the Gold Medal every time ... 😉

    Maybe give him a quota of Gold Medals then no longer eligible ... 😁

    Thanks for compiling the quiz, Roger M.

    Time for a reveal, Rog.

    And how was @Little Goffy's confidence misplaced?

    I'm proud to say that I've won every single quiz this year.  :laugh:

    Just like that fleeting moment in time when we were AFL, AFLW and VFL premiers. Emphasis - sadly - on fleeting...

    Do you remember that time a $400m joint NASA-ESA mission was destroyed on landing because just one engineer in one sector had forgotten to convert inches to centimetres?

    Misplaced by about that much.

    😆

    ...I think.

    Now; the reveal?

    ????something to do with where they were recruited from?????
    Unlikely , with Cameron , Ashcroft and ANB , for example being from different states.

    Perhaps they’ve all never been suspended.

    I give up.

    Ah!

    I see why you can't spell it out!

    Well done that’s impressive - I looked at it for a few seconds and thought I’d better get back to mowing the lawn 😂

    A niggling 'So what', eh, Roger?

    The answer, Cranky, is to take the first letter of each player's surname and you will find it spells something deep and meaningful.

    Thanks to all!

    Bronze medal for Axis of Bob 🥉

    Good show!

    Hey, nothing against AoB, but I thought my comment above was good enough to get the Bronze (based on the fact that Tim’s Silver resulted from a comment) 🤣

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
