Welcome @tilly18 to the list of winners.

Answer to be revealed around 1pm today.

In the meantime, here's a final hint (and it's a gimme) - the solution is not as difficult as it INITIALLY appears.

    Far out. I shouldn’t even have been selected for this match.

    Even with this gimme clue I can’t see the answer 😭

    YAY! With 10 minutes ‘til the deadline, I’ve finally worked it out!

    Never mind me, I’m just thinking aloud.

    Yes, @Ghostwriter has reaped the rewards for her perseverance and becomes one of the Famous Five.

    Matthew 20:16 - "So the last will be first ..."

    The solution to the teaser is that the last letter of each player's first name is also the first letter of their surname.

    Tom (Thomas) Sims was a naughty ruse. I don't know if it made any difference to people's thinking or not.

    The baton has now been passed to @Little Goffy who has his next effort ready to go (or so I am assured).

    Well done Ghosty - I thought you might "phone a friend"?

    Didn’t need to, Bangerz.

    Although I did toy with the idea of PM-ing @Timothy Reddan-A'Blew in a “phone a friend” manner. 🤭

    Considered you as well but knew you wouldn’t budge. 😁

    Oooh, a naughty ruse indeed you cad!

    In about four minutes my wife and baby son will come out the arrivals gate after six weeks away, so there will be some delay while airport staff figure out how to restore me from a pile of quivering jelly on the floor.

    Did I ever mention I love youse guys? Cos I love youse guys. Even Cranky and Pickett are all right, y'know.

    • 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.
