AFL captains say we are bottom eight.

In a poll of captains as to who would make the top eight not one vote was cast for the Dees.

Not even Junior?

 

Captains didn't vote for their own club, therefore the max amount of votes was 15.

Fair enough then.

 

And even if he could vote for us, I'm sure he's a more realistic bloke than Bruce, Robbo, White and Neale.


Source?

It's like that with these sorts of things every year/time.

After Last years Form what is so strange about that? In the eyes of all other clubs we are out with the Garbage. The Great Percentage Booster for each team to play..

 

Redleg, Where did you get this from?

Gippy


Melbourne...bottom 8...stop the press!!

Beat me to it Jarka......

Please tell me this isn't a surprise to anyone?

This is our current reality, and its not a big secret!!!

Why would anybody even be surprised about that?

Whilst I expect to be bottom 8 - I'll be gutted if we don't rack up a few more wins than last year ...

Oh my God! Really?

what did they say about whether the sun would come up tomorrow?

14 were not sure, they would take it one game at a time and are ticking all the right boxes for now!


AFL captains are idiots.

15 said Carlton would make the 8 this year.

Does this honestly surprise anyone?!

I would love to be in the top 8, but if we were to finish in 8 - 12 i would be a very happy man. If we were to finish 12 - 14 i would still look at the season as a decent campaign - thats only if we are competitive week in week out, no 100 point thrashings.

Its going to be a long road, but a great journey!

This does not prove your point at all.

If Carltank dont make the 8 this year then there will be alot questions being asked about their list and coaching.

If Judd, Fev, Gibbs, Stevens, Murphy, Kruezer remain fit and in form with a couple of others standing up then they should be able to give the 8 a real shake.

Personally, I would be happy if they dont. But I expect they will make the 8.

just for consistency sake, I'm sure the same thing was mentioned last year.

The difference this year was that it wasn't just us, fifteen captains also nominated West Coast to finish outside the eight.

Not as happy as me.

I expect them to finish 2nd or 3rd.

You can call me an idiot at the end of the season.

I think let every one believe we will finish last.

Go ahead under estimate us I dare you.

Go Dee's

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
