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)

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. ;)

  • 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.
