dees surprises of the year? We will sign Pendles causing Eddie demand Vlad remove us from the AFL.

I can't help but keep worrying that this has a very good chance of being accurate. I sure hope not.

...BUMP!

Ok, I know it's not October but we basically know the answers except who will be premiers. I'm going to pay out on Jones re B&F and Clark re best first year player.

So the winner with the most correct calls is.... drumroll.... Samsara with 5 and maybe 6 correct if hawks win the flag. Your prize is a dinner for two with cale morton at an all-you-can-eat buffet.

BEST CALLS

Dees best and fairest

These people all got it right with Nathan Jones:

RalphiusMaximus, Macca, Daz's Dee's, WhateverItTakes, Little Goffy, deeflog, billy2803, Steve13, mephis, LJ86, double dee, DemonAndrew, Samsara, reynolds46, Robbie57 and myself.

Dees best 1st year player

These people all got it right with Mitch Clark*:

RalphiusMaximus, Jack Jack, Samsara

*Altho most interpreted the question relating to only those with no previous experience and so most people chose Magner

Goals clark will kick

Nearest to the pin was DemonAndrew with 33

Games jurrah will play

The pessimists did well with this one!

Nearest to the pin were DemonWA, Daz's Dee's, Jack Jack, DEELIRIOUS, Pates, Deeflog, billy2803, Steve13, mephis, DemonAndrew, Good Times Grimes, reynolds46 and Robbo24 who all said 0. Also Dr. Mubutu said 2

Dees surprise of the year

Best call on this was LJ86 for "Grimes to make it through the season unscathed"

Other correct calls were:

Samsara for "Beat an interstate team away (excluding Port @ Darwin)" ... Although beating GWS in Canberra isn't much of a call, sorry!

reynolds46 for "Jack Watts complimented by former players in the media" I can't remember who it was but I think someone did compliment Watts a couple of months ago.. they might be wanting to retract it though

Premiers

The votes were:

Hawks - RalphiusMaximus, DemonWA, Macca, leucopogon, hardtack, Daz's Dee's, Jack Jack, WhateverItTakes, Crawf52, deeflog, Dee-licious, Steve 13, Dr. Mubutu, LJ86, double dee, DemonAndrew, Samsara, Good Times Grimes, robbo24 and me.

Geelong - Pates

Melbourne - Little Goffy

Collingwood - Josh, reynolds46

West Coast - Jonesbag, Robbie5

First coach to get sacked

These people all got it right with Primus:

deeflog, Dr. Mubutu, LJ86, double dee, DemonAndrew

Biggest off field controversy

Ok some of these could still occur in the finals, but to date these people got it right with the Jurrah call:

DemonWA, deeflog, Samsara and robbo24 (half-right)

Games won by gws

These people got it right by saying 2:

me, RalphiusMaximus, Samsara

WORST CALLS

Jack Jack

dees surprise of the year? Making the Prelim

Little Goffy

dees surprise of the year? Lucas Cook super-debut

Jonesbag

dees surprise of the year? Aaron Davey becomes AA

Good Times Grimes

dees surprise of the year? Josh Tynan wins the Rising Star award.

Josh

dees best and fairest? - Maloney

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
