Predictions for 2012

[DemonWA 3,936]

I've seen some pretty "matter of fact" / Bold statements in some of the player review threads. I thought it might be a laugh to have a designated topic where posters can make bold predictions abvout how we might gio next year and then revist down the track and see how right or wrong we were?!

My predicitons for 2012;

Jack Watts to be named in the All Australian team

Brad Green & Aaron Davey to rebound from poor seasons

Clint Bartram to be in Neelds best 22

[old dee 23,871]

Brad Green to keep the captainesy and have a good year.

Davey to continue his 2011 form and be delisted at season end.

Sylvia to finally have a good year and win the B&F.

Dees to finish 10th. and only get beaten by 8 goals at Geelong.

[Ron Burgundy 8,584]

Dees to win the flag.

[Chook 15,022]

Cale Morton receives lifetime supply of spinach for Christmas. Proceeds to win the next 8 Brownlow Medals.

Tom Scully abducted by aliens (little green men, no less) before playing a game for GWS. True to his name, no-one believes it.

[H_T 3,049]

RR and WYL to get along like a house on fire.

Banana's to remarkably reach as low as $7.00 P/Kg.

Fallout at Collingwood at the end of 2012 season. Pies fans turn on Buckley.

Blues miss top 4 on percentage.

rpfc gets picked up at airport by JCB .

Matt Finnis replaced as head of AFLPA

Demetriou appoints Mike Brady to perform on Grand Final Day.

Dees pick up O'Meara and Viney in draft.

Scully's asked at a press conference prior to season what he thinks of GWS and it's surrounds...he replies, "I'm just here for a look; just looking.."

No NAB Cup.

Sling tackles in vogue again.

Sheedy takes a swipe at Ross Lyon prior to the Fremantle v GWS 'blockbuster'

Malthouse critical commentary of the Magpies output and says it's a direct reflection of coach's instruction and preparation.

Dees to win 10-13 games for season.

Got to get one right....it's Friday/

[old dee 23,871]

HT I can believe some of your predictions but this one

"RR and WYL to get along like a house on fire."

You have got to stay off the Coffee!

[Bimbo 940]

As a direct result of GFC-2 the value of a desk to drop to $79,258

[H_T 3,049]

[McQueen 17,867]

[Kento80 83]

Dees to smash GWS in our first outing, with $cully taken from the ground on a stretcher after being ironed out (legally of course ) by Beamer.

Nathan Jones to win the B&F after taking to Neeld like a duck to water.

Colin Sylvia close second B&F.

Liam Jurrah to have a proper breakout season, working in tandem with Wonna to bamboozle opposition defences.

Trengove and Grimes to share the Captaincy.

Green to return to form with the weight of Captain lifted from his shoulders.

Dees to finish 6th.

Pendles to come to Melbourne at seasons end, on the back of a poor season for the Pies and some gentle persuasion from our coach.

[jabberwocky 2,301]

Max Gawn to further entrench himself as a cult hero with couple of goodish games with moments of whimsy and hilarity.

[Fork 'em 6,990]

Some-one will tell us "The player have been burning over the Pre-season."

Some-one will declare that "We just didn't come out too play."

Some-one will tell us " We can still make the 8."

[cowboy_from_hell 2,390]

we finish 8th

GWS do not win a game: Seriuosly brogan,cornes and Junior as their senior players they have no hope.

40,000 members

Chippa back to All australian

[old55 23,687]

Some-one will tell us "The player have been burning over the Pre-season."

[Roger Mellie 4,102]

Nathan Buckley sacked in Round 11

If only

[Bobby McKenzie 2,385]

Jack Watts to finish 3rd in our B&F. Brent Moloney wins back to back 'Blueys'. Jonesy second.

Nathan Jones, Jack Trengove and Cale Morton to flourish under new coach Neeld.

Dees to finish 8th and win first final only to lose the next one.

Ron Barassi makes a comeback for one game v's GWS, flattens $cully and is suspended for life. We beat Sheedy's mob by 212 points to erase our name from one undesirable record.

Rodney Grinter is appointed specialist 'toughness' coach.Wants to play against GWS but his wish is declined. Knocking out coach Neeld didn't help his cause.

Sam Blease to show his true talents along with Jamie Bennell.

Max Gawn to grow 6 cms to become taller than Sandilands.
