Here's mine:

Hawthorn

Sydney

Adelaide

Collingwood

West Coast

Geelong

Essendon

North Melbourne

Hawthorn to win the lot in a tight Final against Sydney.

I couldn't give a **** about the meltdown, it has already happened many times this season and it'll happen again at some stage.

I think GC have hit some solid form and we are practically a spent force for the season.

We don't have anyone the quality of Ablett, we have key outs with injuries, and we're looking more tired each week.

I really don't care because it's been plain to see for months.

What we really need is a solid preseason. The injection of quality youth will help, but we need to do our best to improve what we already have. We can't be constantly rebuilding and hoping to win the lottery with a draft pick.

GWS won't win another game.

They've solidly hit the rookie wall, and the veterans don't have it in them to play out the season either.

The losses will get bigger.

So many games that shape this in the final few rounds. After going through the ladder predictor on the AFL website, I came up with:

Sydney

Adelaide

Hawthorn

West Coast

Collingwood

Geelong

North

Essendon

------------------

St Kilda

Freo

Carlton

Richmond

......

But, this is based on:

Rd 19

Haw v Geel - Haw

Ade v Ess - Ade

Rd 20

WCE v Geel - WCE

Ess v Nth - Nth

Sydney v Collingwood (in Syd) - Syd

Rd 21

Gee v St K - Gee

Ess v Coll - Coll

Rd 22

Syd v Haw - Syd

WCE v Coll - WCE

Rd 23

Haw v WCE - Haw

Gee v Syd - Gee

St K v Carl - St K

A few of those go the other way and things could look very different.

Adelaide are a monty for top 4, and probably top 2, with Melbourne and Brisbane away and Gold Coast, Freo and Essendon at home.

I just hope Essendon miss finals, so it effectively bumps our mid-round compo pick up 1 place (since they'll take Daniher and we'd never have a chance to get him anyway).

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
