Heres my take:

Number of wins: 5

Average losing margin: 30 points

Average winning margin: 15 points

B&F top 3: 1. McLean 2. Green 3. Garland

Leading goal-kicker: Maric (35 goals)

Surprise packet of 2009: Maric winning the Rising Star (one can dream...)

Headline of the year: something Jack Watts related, no doubt

Best win of the year: Rd. 11 vs. Collingwood

Worst loss of the year: Rd 9 vs. Hawthorn

Final membership numbers: 33,170

And as for the rest...

Number of games until Rivers and Moloney both break down with injuries: 6

Number of times Aussie does the 'frog leap' in 2009: 13

Don't even joke about the first one... and that would mean 13 goals for Aussie throughout the year? I'm thinking closer to 30.

 

Number of wins: 12

Average losing margin: 27 points

Average winning margin: 18

B&F top 3: 1. Sylvia 2. McLean 3. Garland

Leading goal-kicker: Sylvia (47 goals)

All Australian representatives: Sylvia, Garland, McLean, Rivers

Top votes at the Brownlow: Sylvia

Best first year player: Leroy Jetta

Breakthrough year: Ricky Petterd

Disappointment of the year: Michael Newton

Biggest area of improvement: Everything will improve tenfold.

Surprise packet of 2009: Youngsters all rise to the occasion simultaneously, and the Demons take the comp by storm.

Headline of the year: Colin-oscopy - Sylvia rams it up Pies with 10 goal haul

Best win of the year: There will be many, but beating Hawthorn will be the best.

Worst loss of the year: Any heartbreaking loss decided by under a goal or two.


Number of wins: 9

Average losing margin: 20 points

Average winning margin: 12 points

B&F top 3: 1. Green 2. Mclean 3. Bate!

Leading goal-kicker: Bate, 47 goals

All Australian representatives: Green, Mclean

Top votes at the Brownlow: McLean

Best first year player: Bail (will get the most game time)

Breakthrough year (first-year players do not count): Obiovusly from above, Bate, but the other will be Dunn.

Disappointment of the year: Grimes missing the majority of the season through injury

Biggest area of improvement: Forward pressure, some progress on clearances (esp around the ground)

Surprise packet of 2009: Jordie Mckenzie. But also, Robbo, who will rub our noses in it for forgetting him.

Headline of the year: Demons tear apart top four (after knocking Blues and then Saints down in rnd 21/22)

Best win of the year: Round 21, Carlton, to deny them a top four finish, after which they exit in an insipid elimination final.

Worst loss of the year: North Melbourne at the dome in round 19.

Final membership numbers:

And some extra for fun:

Debuts: 9

in order: Spencer, Bail, Cheney, Bennell, Strauss, Meesen, Watts, Blease, Jurrah

Delistings: Just 4.

Meesen (contracted or not), Wheatley, Newton, Cheney (redrafted as rookie)

If Newton is lucky he'll get traded (for a token pick) to a club in even more need of a forward prospect than us at the end of this year, e.g. Sydney, Adelaide, Essendon.

We're holding trade stock for 2010 Gold Coast entry, and we have so many players who it would be unfair to dispose of before they've had a proper go, 2009 will be a pretty stable year. Robbo, Whelan and McDonald will all be fighting fit for another year anyway. ;)

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.
