2009 - less than 30% chance to make finals. Finish 10th

Early wins will have us up and about before young players tire and a few injuries sees us searching for a bit of depth.

Ignore the position, its irrelevant, we will see massive growth in the young blokes next year.

look to 2010 to play finals seriously.

    all those people that put 50-50 chance are kidding themselves...i expect us to maybe just sneak in 2010...hopefully contenders for 2012

    I voted 30%. A small chance of making the 8.

    And to say that we will struggle even more without experienced players is a cop out.

    With the youth that are playing now, it is proof that we are more competitive without the senior players.

    Great point, totally agree..

    Kids putting up a much better fight, cus they have 2, youth youth youth..

    Go Bails!

    I think about 40% with a GOOD injury run!

    Hope im wrong in the right way :wacko:

    in all honesty azzkika, if we made the finals you wouldnt no what to do with yourself....how many years have you been a mfc supporter? did you ever see your team play finals? they only played 3 finals in my lifetime, (and they were all in the same year!)

    Its all above the shoulders and it has to do with attitude and coaching strategies.

    Skill,commitment and fitness of the players would help as well.

    I would've thought at the very least "above the shoulders" relates to skill and commitment......

    Yes fitness of course is a pre-requisite for AFL football.

    I wouldn't say skill is 'above the shoulders'. While confidence etc can come into it, the 'above the shoulders' stuff is really just a moderator of your skill level.

    You just said he was a MFC supporter, and thus his team is now the Dees!

    how many years have you been a mfc supporter? did you ever see your team play finals?
    I get your point though :P

    i should have said 'your old team' to make it clearer ;)
