...and arguably tipped the selection (and was first with the Bailey Humphrey link, too: not you, Twomey!)

As at the date of this (13 Nov) he was 'learning to walk again after surgery'. So, not a big pre-season ahead of him?

Yep. An hour of my life I won't get back...

Offer him First Class, just to be sure.

...and, steadily, one for which Casey Fields ain't so foreign! Gippy RULES!

'Twas a clever-d*** inquiry as to veracity. That worked well.

Do tell us you had some AI help, please, 666! That'd be impressive enough. Otherwise... 🤯

...and written, arranged, recorded, engineered and produced in well under 24 hours! Psychic?

Truly?

I received a 'personal' email from the Club, ostensibly for my 19 years' membership, headed, "This is what 2025 looked like for you ❤️‍🔥" One of the several things listed contained an 'eggcorn' (I've just learnt that word - it comes from someone who misheard that little thing from which big oaks grow! It's 'mondegreen''s cousin) We're familiar with eggcorns on here, I reckon! Under a picture of Steven King, are the words, 'We handed over the reigns'. On reflection, cleverly deliberate by Melbourne Media perhaps? Yeah...nah.

Highlights are SANFL (Glenelg) 'twos' level, I believe. I'm looking forward to the recruiting team's observations on his readiness for and path into our AFL 'ones'. Might be a short-term element of 'project'? But exciting in the bigger picture!

DS, presumably you, and several like-mindeds on here, have the fire in your bellies for the Dees more widely, so perhaps you just need to throw these in?...

Rooey to be #26 in '26? Jed should have got the gig.

It's a pretty exposed site and a not very attractive area at the moment. Like their colours...

Clearly the other teams are worried about us: number swapping a tried and true method for throwing spies off. On the other hand, a risky strategy for Melbourne. The 1958 GF says hello...

Problematic hearts and exciting football; a volatile mix, DeeZ! You seem made of strong stuff, then! 🤞 from me, too, compadre.

I saw your last line as 'I'm really over this stuff'. Glad I re-read it!

Loving the sentiments here! I was at the other three but circumstances kept me away this time(*) I was resigned after last week, and even more so when I snuck a look at yesterday's 1/2-time score. It was a beautiful replay watch last night. It was some game. The immediate aftermath on the field did look grand-final-win-ish! *...and will do so again this week, dammit! p.s. I'm not crying about a Hawks straight sets! (except Westy and Casey S)

Quicker than a demonstone meme! 👏

Oops. Heinz had 57 varieties, not 47 😬 Anyways, somewhat on topic, what do these players have in common in the 2000s?... Merenda, Porter, Alvey, Powell, Selby and Williams, at a slight stretch Pittonet, and at a bit more of a stretch, Picken and Drum? Dare I say it's a bit of a too-easy gimme? [Edit: p.s. 'The Brand': Chanel no.5?]

Hmmmm.... And I presume you've forgotten to remind us of your '47' OP clue? So many possible reactions, but I'll go with 'Well done!' 🙂 Signed, The Brand Of A Now Defunct Napa Valley California Winery Whose Memorabilia I Have A Piece Of So Everyone Is A Brand Somewhere! 😉

A new rule for Puzzledom after this one and @Little Goffy's 'Too-easy' one: No puzzler may belittle their extremely intelligent followers with claims of simplicity for their puzzles. Edit: And I believe you have filled the podium, so maybe... https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3D9jykIqQxEOw&ved=2ahUKEwiLs_yqmfWQAxWwTmwGHflyAZEQo7QBegQIDhAG&usg=AOvVaw1o5r7rS0KJxO-5Ltzdx_bW

He's been away, has just returned, has read all the *cough* 'clues' and is NONE THE WISER!!!
