ECHUCABOY said:Thanks mate. should be very interesting this week.
Thanks for the "get a kick echucaboy" calls from the boundary, very much appreciated
Well wasn't much scope for giving you much of a spray considering the shellacking you were giving us........

Was that today's clue?
If so then Colbert or Petrie seem to be on the money.

Is the mystery footballer someone who will come on and talk on Nova or could it be people not interested in the whole project?

If you think about it cryptically, the Iconic part has nothing to do with the actual player
More about maybe the club surrounding the player.... just a thought.

There are some good guesses on here. One could be right. When the answer is revealed, and the clues are explained - it will seem so obvious.
Clues like "iconic" will mean a lot more. I'm sure that Iconic doesn't mean "He's an icon at the club". It's far more cryptic than that.
Whoever said the reference about Holdens, Hills Hoist etc could be closer to the money. The "dish" is a good one too.

OK, It is obvious to me that it is a player from North Melbourne, clues suggesting this is Just you wait and see, came east to go North.
Current player
197 could be Michael Stevens 179cm, doesn't have to be in order, Corey McKernan 197cm
Go ahead and Jump, thinking Corey McKernan again, as he rucks, as well as he might as well jump before North delist him at seasons end.
Cattledog perhaps refers to Drew Petrie as he was most likely a bit of a country boy in Ballarat. But Ballarat is not east from North.
2nd Time Lucky may also refer to McKernan, in that he went back to North after Carlton, hoping it would be second time lucky. It hasn't been.
Sorry Bombers, may refer to Shane Harvey who came from the Bombers.
All these relate to one or two clues but no more.
Problem with it being Petrie is he didn't come from the west direction. Sorry Bombers does not fit in anyway. Take that Bucks is baffling for most of them.
Also Cattledog, can't be about the coach, it has to relate to the player.

His draft pick was traded by Adelaide for Evan Hewitt.

Sorry Bombers could relate to the fact that Ronnie Andrews is his uncle
Take that Bucks was given just after North flew home last week to beat Collingwood with Bucks missing a relatively easy shot that would probably have sealed the game.

It's actually west of Melbourne, but Melb is east of Ballarat.

If you heard the clue as I did, they played the siren then the words, jump go ahead jump. Now Drew Petrie, the ruckman, jumps, ie: the siren sounds, the ball is bounced/thrown up and Drew 'jumps' to tap the ball out, does he not? Quite a fitting clue me thinks
