Question 1 of 10

1. Everything's eventual I guess. The season has to end and we're facing the Grand Final next week. Those at the bottom of the ladder can only look on in envy. Serves them right, they didn't have the stamina to make it.

Answer: (4 Letters)

Question 2 of 10

2. But I cannot afford to ponder on the also rans, I have to focus on what lies ahead for me. How can I forget it, I can still recall the pain of losing last year's Grand Final.

Answer: (Five letters, starts with T)

Question 3 of 10

3. I checked my time piece. It was time to scrutinize the video data on my opponent for this weekend. The coach has assigned me their best player, a man we call "Loco". He destroyed us the last time that we met and I was determined that it wouldn't happen on my shift.

Answer: (5 letters)

Question 4 of 10

4. As I stared at the video I noticed that my left leg was shaking on the spot. The neurons from my brain to the leg were working overtime. I had to admit that I was also getting a little grouchy at the boys when they'd gently rib me on my assignment this weekend. It was starting to be a touchy subject and I was beginning to wonder if I'd have the courage to see it through.

Answer: (5 letters)

Question 5 of 10

5. I put my boots on and head up the tunnel to the oval. I move aside to see Macca and Smithy sprint past to see who could get to the grass first. It reminds me that this week would go by so fast and I have to make every post a winner.

Answer: (4 letters, starts with R)

Question 6 of 10

6. It was time to practise and in every action I was visualising how I was going to apply my skills on my opponent, "Loco", which was short for "Locomotive". In our previous encounter he proved to be unstoppable, leaving us trailing in his wake like the back end of a bride's gown.

Answer: (5 letters)

Question 7 of 10

7. I'm enjoying a good massage after my workout, now if I could only find a way to erase the pain of last year's loss from my mind. "You're tensing up" said the masseuse "think of some good things like putting polish on this year's cup".

Answer: (3 letters)

Question 8 of 10

8. Finally it's game day. This is no time to joke. "Geez Poll, you're looking as nervous as baby goat, lighten up mate". I look up and see Wally, a big grin on his face and living the moment. Today's his 100th game and as a tribute he'll be allowed to carry his young son onto the ground and through the banner.

Answer: (3 letters)

NEXT>

Question 9 of 10

9. We run out onto the ground. I throw the ball to the ground and watch as it comes back to me. I look around to see Jacko full of beans, starting to jump around. He's got more spring than a paddock full of kangaroos. Suddenly I realise that this is our time. We're primed, we're on the rebound and we're dangerous.

Answer: (6 letters, starting with B)

NEXT>

Question 10 of 10

10. The game is over and it's all a blur. What I do know is that I'm holding our reward, the premiership cup, aloft. This is a moment I will treasure forever. As the boys try to lever the cup from my fist I can hear the coach's words echo in my ear "To the victor the spoils. Work hard enough and everything's eventual".

Answer: (5 letters, starting with P)

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: LAST

Last is a temporal end in much the same way that our season has come to an end. This is further signified by the last game of the season, the Grand Final. Last can indicate a ranking and in the above case it's the bottom of the ladder. Finally, when we mentioned that these bottom teams didn't have the stamina, we're saying that they couldn't last.

2. But I cannot afford to ponder on the also rans, I have to focus on what lies ahead for me. How can I forget it, I can still recall the pain of losing last year's Grand Final.

Answer: THINK

To ponder is to think. To focus is to bring your thoughts into a specific frame of mind, and to recall is to think by bringing forward a memory or some knowledge obtained in the past.

Answer: WATCH

A watch is a time piece, such as a wrist watch or a stem winder. To observe closely or to scrutinize is to watch, and a period of duty, such as a shift, is also known as a watch.

Answer: NERVE

A nerve is made up of a series of neurons that send messages from the brain to muscles (among other parts of the body). A sensitive or touchy subject can also be seen as a nerve ("Oh you really hit a sore nerve there") and courage, boldness and fortitude are also spoken of as nerve. Hmmm, was I starting to lose my nerve?

Answer: RACE

A tunnel, particularly at a sporting arena, is known as a race in much the same way that a man-made channel built to transport water is called a race (way). Macca and Smithy were engaged in a race, a contest of speed, and the week disappearing on me describes the rapid movement or the racing of time. i.e. the days will race by.

Answer: TRAIN

You were given four hints in this patch though two of them could almost count as one. To practise is to train in much the same way as you coach yourself as to how you will apply your skills in a given situation. A locomotive is a train, as is the back end (or the trailing section) of a bride's gown.

Answer: RUB

A massage is often referred to as a rub. While I used the word erase in respect to get rid of (or rub out) a bad memory I could have also used expunge or remove. Giving something a polish also means to give it a rub.

Answer: KID

To joke around is to kid. A baby goat is a kid and so is a young child.

Answer: BOUNCE

Throwing the ball to the ground and have it return to you is to bounce it. Bounce also means vitality and, in Jacko's case, he was full of beans. Bounce also means spring and to rebound is to bounce back.

Answer: PRIZE

Reward, premiership cup and the spoils all mean the prize. Something that you value highly or treasure is something that you prize, and when you try to lever something open you are trying to prize it open.
