I think there will be a lot of anxiety at Tigerland this year, there seems to be a belief that they will take the next step. Can't see it myself, they are getting ahead of themselves again. Apart from that who knows, I wouldn't make a prediction on us until I see the new group on the field, to many changes. Feels good at the moment though.

Melbourne will improve as a club no more floggings but lader position won't flatter us.

Tigers won't play finals untill they find someone other than Jack to kick goals

This exercise is always difficult and an absolute stab in the dark. Only throwing it out there so I can see how far off I was come September.

Pies - Still have a lot of class IMO and should be hurting from last year

Hawks - Still number 1 on their day. As above but last 2 years will really burn, If Lake stands up releases pressure on Gibson and Schoenmakers

Swans - Because they are the Swans/Bloods always there and we will say come Round 16/17 what about Sydney they are sitting in Top 4 quietly

Dockers - Ross Lyon factor although hearing rumours Mundy & Fyfe are struggling to get out on the track confirmation of this will change my opinion

Blues - 2011 had them 1 step away from being one of the Top 4, now with Malthouse's defensive mindset I see them as the climbers this year

Eagles - Nic Nat struggling extra workload on Dean Cox. Lecras back is a bonus although they are heavily reliant on old heads of Glass & Kerr

Crows - Still Solid, Tippet gone but he was not a big factor, the draw of 2012 was easy but midfield is still classy with Thompson, Sloan & Dangerfield, Walker stepped up in 2012.

Tigers - Still not sold on them but split between them and the ageing Cats, history tells me two changes to the 8 at least most years so go Tigers

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

Cats - Ageing list will win plenty of games at Kardinia and show glimpses of their past, but Rivers is not Scarlett and the older heads showed signs last year the end is near

North - Will show glimpses of form but I only see them as an average side at best and for me will always be around 7th to 12th. Tougher draw this year

Dees - Expect improvement and a harder edge and may be biaised putting us above Lions & Bombers

Lions - Have rebuilt well since trying to recruit older players to fill holes. Like their coach will be hard to beat and will win their fair share of games

Bombers - The honeymoon is over blow torch to be turned on the golden child with Thomo to take over in 2014

Saints - Just think the time has come for a clean out and they were up for a long time

Power - They have some talent and will provide nuisance value but IMO a fair way off

Suns - I seen them take a few strides forward in the second half of the season and will snare some surprise wins but like Port still a way off

Dogs - Finished the second half of last season terribly and look to be heading were we were in 2007

Giants - Second year will be tougher for them and whilst they have some grunt in the players they targetted the opposition know a bit more about them now

obviously i really wanted to put melbourne higher than i did, but as much as i think we will improve next season i don't think it will be enough to leap frog a lot of teams around us next year as a few are also on the up. If we can win the majority of the close games next year then we should move up 1 possibly 2 spots, either way we should easily be a better and more competitive team this season.

I could care less about other sides. But for the dees i'm going out on a limb here. Melbourne are currently $10 to make the 8. Great value i reckon and well worth a nibble. We play GWS, PA, GC and the bullies all twice. It possible we could get say 7 wins from those games. We also play 15 games at the G which is huge for us. 12 games might get us in.

With our draw i believe $10 is overs and as such is value. The true odds in my opinion is about $8.

Collingwood, Essendon and Carlton to finish out of the top 8, Hawthorn to slide (Main rationale is because I hate them all!)

Melbourne to make the eight (because I predict this every year), Freo to improve.

I cannot beleive that every single person has put Collingwood high up in the top eight. Back in my day, no self-respecting Demon supporter would dream of admitting to predicting that!

can't see there being a huge gap in wins from about 7-15 wouldn't be surprised to see MFC's draw being enough to have people feeling they might be a chance at sneaking into the 8 for the first half of the year then perhaps falling away in the second half through just being a young team and tiring abit, hoping for some good signs though!

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
