Demonstone's #50 - A Hellraising Heroicomic Heuristic Heartbreaker
It's the final teaser for 2025 and what a milestone! With that fortuitous edge through slips, Demonstone takes the single to bring up his half-century. He acknowledges the applause from the crowd with an understated smile and a modest raising of his bat, while his batting partner and best mate @Cranky Franky joins him for a celebratory hug and an encouraging pat on the bum. If you would like to join the team in the dressing rooms for a drink after play finishes tonight, there are two things you must do to be eligible. 1 - Identify the common link that binds the players in the team below. They all appeared on an AFL list in 2025 and are named pretty much in position. 2 - Respond in a PM only. Failure to do so will result in you being run out (of town). B: John Noble Tom McCartin Mark Keane H/B: Tom McDonald James Sicily Isaac Cumming C: Angus Sheldrick Callum Mills Cam McKenzie H/F: Elijah Hewett Shannon Neale Quinton Narkle F: Tim Membrey Aaron Naughton Jamie Elliott R: Rhys Stanley Connor Rozee Tom Mitchell I/C: Sid Draper Liam McMahon Archer Reid Tom Sims

Good news week (positive news only)
The good news is that I have another brainteaser all lined up and set to taunt you yet again. In less positive news, what Santa left for me was a little disappointing.

Best and Worst Guernseys
More the mistake of the article. They have nominated two jumpers as the worst. The one Frawley is wearing isn't that bad IMO.

I think 'cubist' is a reference to the abomination that John Meesen is wearing.

Cameron Pedersen
We picked Cam up from North in a trade swap for Jordan Gysberts, and won that deal by a considerable margin. IIRC, he copped a fair bit of criticism for ducking his head in a marking contest early in his career with MFC. He never did it again.

Music Recommendation thread for off-season Boredom
Also covered with distinction by the Beasts Of Bourbon in 1988. Tex looks the part!!

Music Recommendation thread for off-season Boredom
Did they ever record together? I'm thinking something along the lines of 'Hot Rats In The Middle Of The Dead Skunk'.

Training Ground?
Geez DJ, you got some unspent 2025 panic dollars you need to get rid of before the year's out? 😁

Annual General Meeting
Just imagine if the merger with Hawthorn had gone ahead and cries of "Go Aitches" rang around the MCG. I've never used the term 'Dees'. We're the Mighty Demons.

PRESEASON TRAINING: Wednesday 17th December 2025
On a sort of related note but completely off topic, why aren't urinal cakes called 'piscuits'?

Demonstone's Yearly Yuletide Yabbering Yakfest
Given the horrific events at Bondi, I'm pulling the pin on this one early. It doesn't seem the appropriate time for fun and light-heartedness. The players in my team were all taken immediately after MFC's first pick/s in their respective drafts. They could have all played for Melbourne.

Nothing to do with attitudes nor (massive hint) places on the field.

Demonstone's Yearly Yuletide Yabbering Yakfest
That's the nub of the teaser, @Timothy Reddan-A'Blew . I've just noticed that there are no MFC players in the team. I wonder if that has any significance.

Demonstone's Yearly Yuletide Yabbering Yakfest
Just for you oh cranky one, I had a word to the site's owner and he has generously agreed to allow posters to scroll right on by if they're not interested. Ain't it a wonderful life? Fester ye merrily on high now, ya hear?
-

A clue it is, then. To unlock the mystery, you would need to concentrate on the players' positions.

You also promised us that you'd stop posting at all if Clarry was traded. Doesn't do much for your credibility, champ.
