Geez, well done mate! There must have surely been some sort of publicity angle as we're not certainties to win the flag at this stage. (BTW, if they paid out $2,300, the odds were 22 to 1 as $100 of that was your original stake)

Did that involve lots of multiplying?

At what odds did they pay out, Tony? Surely not the 23/1 you started with?

Percentage is irrelevant if we finish first or second.

1. Sideshow Bob kicked 5.2 today. Bring him in. 2. Mitch Brown went off injured early in today's game. Not in consideration. 3. There's only one "o" in Goulburn.

Petty doesn't rack up a lot of possessions but, more importantly, neither does his opponent and that is the key job of a defender. He's coming along OK and should only get better with more experience at this level.

* shoo-in

Because of his current connection with MFC carrying out the roles of on-ground announcer and host/mc at club functions.

I reckon Russell Robertson might get that gig.

Close enough, Skuit! Donald 'Duck' Dunn and Willie Hall were members of The Blues Brothers. Blueboy Jack Silvagni also had a brother (Ben) who played at Carlton for that delicious added layer of intrigue.

Come on mate, you know the drill. Surnames only!

Not them either!

Well done to Lord Nev for getting High Rise Bombers. That was the hard one!

Not them.

If you're referring to Painters and Dockers, there is no member called "Loewe".

That's correct WCW. You may need to think a little laterally for this one. The centre line is probably the most obscure of the lot.

Got it! Chris and Rich Robinson and Mark Ford played in the Black Crowes. Andrew McLeod was a Crow but common decency precludes me from adding a descriptor!

Two easy (ish) ones and one tricky one to go, thrillseekers!

Correct! They Might Be Giants have had members called Dan Hickey, Dan Miller and Kurt Hoffman. Toby Greene might also be a Giant.

The Hawks (later to become The Band) had members Robbie Robertson and Garth Hudson. The floodgates are now open!

Yes! Vince Gill and Joe Walsh. That's your two correct answers so no more from you!

Congratulations to reynolds46 for cracking the key!! Chris Bailey and Ivor Hay are the two band members.

Next clue: Although there is a footy connection, there is also another, stronger link that harks back to the theme of that first conundrum posted a couple of weeks ago.

Nobody has come even close so far. I can reveal that the common link is the same for all seven lines so once the first is solved the others will probably follow more easily. Contrary to my previous hint, there IS a footy connection. Sorry!

I'm glad somebody has had a go after 80 views without reply but, alas, you're miles off LG. There will be a useful clue forthcoming in a couple of hours if nobody has worked out the connection by then.
