To be fair, Y_M made the same prediction :) B)

Who?

Y_M's predictions were the equivalent of a person trying to throw a pebble into a distant bucket by taking a handful and throwing them all at once. One is bound to go in.

Jurrah will make the AA next year. Heard it hear first.

Jack Grimes

2011 All-Australian

Start your threads boys. Only I hope there isn't 20 threads on separate players for next year.

    It's a quiet couple of months here, so you'll forgive me a bit of indulgence.

    I'm making an early call on young chip.

    All Australian 2010.

    Feel free to add your own.

    Brilliant.

    Here's hoping your 2011 prediction is for a Demons flag... :lol:

    No... I'm 90% sure it's gonna be for another A.A. Gurnsey. I'll give you a hint. His initials are T.S.

    A few decent predictions in this thread.

    Grimes is a few years off, but he definitely has it in him.

    A lot of competition for those sort of spots.

    If Jurrah stays relatively injury free, I have no doubt whatsoever that he will be in the 2011 AA squad of

    40. I think Green has it in him to back up this season and if he does he'll be very close next year.

    Jamar likely won't get it again.

    Chip will back it up as he emerges as one of the competition's premier backmen.

    In defense of E25, he said in this very thread...

    Most of us backed Chip in.

    Greeny was the contentious one.

    Turn it up.

    Wasn't much of a bold prediction for me to make a month ago.

    Or even midway through this season.

    I wouldn't give any credit for that.

    Anyway, can't find anywhere that I posted it and I probably didn't at all.

    But I did find this thread where it appears one of YM's incarnations made a

    bold prediction:

    http://demonland.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=14693

    this is my favourite part:

    He will be a superstar, All Australian backman.

    The real deal.

    Mate comments like that are just rubbish.

    It's his second year playing in the senior side regularly.

    Give it a rest.

    Meh. I always had a lot of confidence in Frawley, even when everyone else had concerns about his kicking (like a backman needs to kick that well). Picking him as a future All Australian (which Y_M did with most young players), isn't all that impressive. Picking the year is.

    You're right about Grimes, and he'd have been my next one, but I reckon that wouldn't be all that newsworthy. Everyone knows how good he is now.

    What a call!!

    Any sights of a premiership or two in that crystal ball!! B)

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
