The Panglossian’s Puzzle for Pedants

Featured Replies

I’ve had very little satisfaction in trying to solve Demonstone’s and Timothy R’s footy team quizzes, so I’ve tried to devise one that will baffle them.

I’ll be disappointed if (a) someone gets it straightaway , or (b)people say it was too obscure when I finally divulge the solution.

The players all have something in common, but it’s not footy related.

Backs. Andy Moniz- Wakefield, Chris Langford, Brenton Sanderson

Half Backs.Jack Sinclair, Kenny Hunter,Xavier Tanner

C. Ed Langdon,Scott Pendlebury,Jack Henderson

Half Forwards. Geoff Tunbridge,Jacob Van Rooyen,, Caleb Windsor

F.Jack Gunston,Jason Dunstall,Jack Ginnivan

Rucks Damian Monkhorst, Scott Wynd

Rover Jack Viney

Coach Ken Hinkley

Interchange,Nas Wanganeen Milleara,Josh Jenkins,John Ronaldson,Peter Sinclair,Austin Wonaeamirri,.

PM ‘s please , if you want to have a go.

ps…..they’re not all little known banjo players for obscure blue-grass bands…or anything like it!

 

Bump to stop this teaser from falling off the front page. (And no, I haven't been able to solve it. Is a clue forthcoming?)

 

Yep, I'm going to need a clue on this one, I'm going into numerology territory and that is never good.


I've figured out the forward line. If you take the inititals of the three players you get the sound my son makes when he sees a pigeon. "Jgjdjg".

 

Just joined, @The Panglossian! Don't give it away just yet, then!

Meanwhile, congrats and thanks for entering the puzzler fray!

Ding dang it. I'm one of those, and was hoping there were more of us than the world seems to think...

They all have n in their names.

Hint….you could make the team, Mande, if you,d played AFL/ VFL.

Man Dee is on the right track!

Didn't you see my PM????

  • 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.
