Premiership clock

Featured Replies

I don't think there's any doubt that Adelaide are ahead of us. Their senior players are far better than ours (Goodwin, McLeod, Edwards, Thompson, Rutten, Bock, Burton), they have a quality group of young- to mid-20s (van Berlo, Vince, Johncock, Porplyzia, Stevens) and they have some gun kids coming through too (Walker, Dangerfield, Petrenko). We will not finish ahead of Adelaide for three or fours years at least. Pains me to say this, but it's true. Many people in Melbourne are underestimating Adelaide.

Yeah you're right, Adelaide's a better team than I gave them credit for. Dangerfield is a gun, Petrenko and Walker look the part too. Porplyzia's still young as well.

 
So what you're saying is that we are in front of all teams except Geelong, Hawthorn, St Kilda, Western Bulldogs, Carlton and Richmond? I would say that Essendon, Port Adelaide, Brisbane, possibly Adelaide as well are all in front of us.

So your saying they will win a flag before us? I dont think so for the reason that we are well and truly in the middle of re-building as they haven't really began like we have. They still have quite a bit to do.

I don't like the idea of Premiership clocks and windows. The aim should be to try and create the best team possible for now and into the future, if they win, they win if they don't they don't. There's no point trying to predict things all the time, it just creates unnecessary pressure when the so-called window is open and allows for standards to be dropped when the clock is at one, or whatever it is.

 
Our clock is out of batteries

I think our premiership clock is an analogue one (circa '64) and is a wind up one!!

We are ahead of ND as his premiership clock has stopped altogether. Howevere I think it has somehow managed to not even be correct twice a day as I dont recalll it ever having told the correct time in 10 years! :blink:

If you think we're ahead of Brisbane or Adelaide I think you're talking out of your backside.


If you think we're ahead of Brisbane or Adelaide I think you're talking out of your backside.

Each to their own.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
