Tough one

Page to squire to knight

Boss - works for a knight, their boss; but why not just clue knight then?
Brush - brush horses, brush off and polish armor?
Cotton - nah
Ear - nah
Force - training to be a knight so lots of force
Governor - they didn’t have governors really back then? But had similar roles so could work
Hit - same as force
Leaf - nah
Note - nah
Page - a lock
Quack - no
Sign - may hold up signs or pennants for the knight

So page the only lock

Gonna have to figure out combos here

I’m probably on these three. Maybe could see brush for the reasons Nich mentioned, but don’t really like anything. Page should be bolded first, obv

No list and we’re never not guessing page, so I’ll just bold it now as the third in with us all agreed.

i really think boss is a lock too

or at least unavoidable. would we ever not guess boss if secretary is the clue? same thing basically

third is tricky. i could see sign, but i imagine the clue would be different (even tho note is a potential blocker going that route)

force/hit are kinda avoided. could see brush, but meh

A squire is a knight in training

Really wanna understand why he didn’t clue knight when that also hits page and hits boss more

Wanna figure out the trio that makes sense

This is last turn so we should be doing the combos; that’s not list making, it’s trying to figure out why this clue and which words it hits

Meh I don’t love anything

Y’all both like those then go for it

I can’t make a good argument for anything but brush since squires look after the horses but it’s not strong enough to make it a hill

Force and hit stood out, but this can't be the clue for those words surely. Possibly sign is one of them?

I was thinking sign for sure

Prob hit for the other one, could have been capitalized for the band to add hit equity but meh, don't think that's enough to really get me off hit. Sign and hit I just thought of immediately as 2 baseball words

I was actually thinking force over hit because he specifically clued the most powerful throw.

Isn't force + sign something just something like police - 2 tho?

It's not like theres that many pitches/signs to steal that can be clued. Curveball runs into some issues, slider wouldn't make sense, then breaking ball and all that is 2 words idk

What issues would curveball run into? Or even just baseball for that matter?

I dunno, it could obviously still be hit and I'm not totally off it or anything, but neil's clues this round have been pretty on point so far with some tricky blockers on the board, and that one seems easily avoidable.
