Demonstone

It's nice to have others putting up their puzzles as it gives me a chance to play. You should be warned that I still have another ten or so of my mindbenders in the bank!

Aha! Their christian names are shared by Australian wicketkeepers.

If you'd prefer to synchronise the TV images and radio sound, have a look at DaanSystems - Radiodelay.

It's another cricket reference. A long hop is a delivery that is short, slow and doesn't rise very high and which is easy pickings for the batsman - fruit for the sideboard, as the saying goes. I've come up with two possible answers to this pearler of a mindbender with all these cricket clues. 1. All the players named were cross-dressers and were caught in slips. 2. Because of their footy fame, they had no trouble bowling a maiden over.

I feel like I've been hoisted by my own Ricky Petterd here as I haven't a clue what the answer is. Kudos to Timothy. If Mazer has won the gold medal, I'd be lucky to earn rusty tin.

That's be us if we merged with Carlton. ?

Numbers 18, 22, 32 and 44 old bean.

You've got to feel a little bit sorry for the Hawthorn fans who now won't be able to go to the game. Both are reported to be devastated by the news.

Good luck with the latest lockdown, fellow Demonlanders. Here are some tips from NSW:

Five day Statewide lockdown from midnight tonight I just heard ...

There's already been a movie made about those dodgy removalists. The only question I have is who the hell is Kenny Carter?

Apart from Dyson and Dixon, they are all in alphabetical order by surname.

This was a reference to @JimmyGadson whose current and past username (Steve Jordan) are both drummers.

Drum roll ..... Boomtish! Gold medal to Timothy, Silver to Mazer Rackham (via PM) and Bronze to Hardtack. The coach is Matt Cameron and the emergencies Danny Carey, Tony Williams and Meg White.

Nothing to do with authors I'm afraid. I'm off to have an earlyish night in the sack and will check in the morning to see if anybody has solved it. Could this be the first ever brainteaser to confound the combined brilliance of Demonland minds?

Time for another clue, which will either enlighten you or frustrate you even further. To the team already published above, you may add a coach in Leon Cameron, plus three emergencies in Wayne Carey, Greg Williams and Jeff White. Does this help or hinder?

No scarlet sardines were harmed in the making of this team. edit: Replying to WCW!

Sorry, but no. Or should I say ... ".on tub, yrroS".

There's a connection alright. Only one of us would try to troll Demonland. I'll leave this open until somebody inevitably works it out. Funny how it goes. I thought the initial quiz was difficult (lasted three nanoseconds) and this one much easier.

He's pregnant again?

Not an Indigenous connection. Majuscule clue: Nothing to do with football or guernsey numbers.

Quite. This is the second thread near the top of page one that has turned snarky. I think we all need some football and the sooner the better.

Sorry Swollen Shallot, neither of these are close to the answer. As a minuscule clue, there is one particular Demonlander (who I can't recall participating in these teasers) who would instantly identify the common factor.

Neither Wales, poetry nor politics involved.
