WCW’s “Not Another Cryptic Cricket Quiz” cryptic cricket quiz
mo64 replied to WalkingCivilWar's topic in Melbourne Demons
Hmm. Dawid Malan would make sense if the clue was "I took from his second name to create an animal. Edit. You're correct. The "i" comes from his first name. -

Part 2: Top 100 players of the past 50 years - 61-80
mo64 replied to Deespicable's topic in Melbourne Demons
Strongly disagree. Only May, Lever, Gawn, Petracca and Oliver would be certainties for our best 22 since 1976. The 8 players from the 2021 Premiership team that were 21 and under, are still unproven in real terms. Aside from the players you mentioned, surely Jeff Farmer gets in ahead of either Spargo or Pickett. Brett Lovett ahead of either Rivers or Salem. Laurie Fowler or Alan Johnson ahead of Bowey. Alan Jakovich ahead of Fritsch. Greg Wells ahead of Viney. Todd Viney ahead of Harmes. I could go on because Hibberd, Petty, Langdon, ANB, Sparrow and Jackson are not close to making best 22. The 2021 team is easily the best Melbourne team we've seen, but it's not made up of 22 stars. -

Great work Deespic. No real surprises in the rankings. My only comment is that too much is made of the timing of Jack Watts' debut, and how it ruined his career. Not sure how many weeks it was prior to his debut, but he had an outstanding game for Casey against the Coburg Tigers (aligned with Richmond at the time). He deserved to be selected. At the end of the day, I just saw Jack Watts as a player with talents who didn't have the desire or natural competitiveness to get the best out of himself. The QB narrative is overplayed. -
43/57. Rushed it a bit. Had 9 minutes left.

COVID cases spread at Jack Trengove’s wedding
mo64 replied to goodwindees's topic in Melbourne Demons
Max mentioned that he'd be attending JT's wedding on Dylan Buckley's Podcast. -
Just like Mike Sheahan's Top 50, these lists will always be open to debate. Attended my first Dees game in 1972, so at least I can say I saw all of them play. The biggest headscratcher so far is Tony Elshaug at 99. He represented the Big V whilst at Melbourne, and was a very good footballer. I'd rate him ahead of almost all those ranked 81-98.
