As convincing and relentless as the off-season optimists are, i'll still be surprised if we finish higher than 16th. It's conditioned into me now

And was Je Roos Salem builded here

among the dark satanic DILLS?

You're saying you got 28/1 for that bet? Mate, you are kidding yourself. I wouldn't take 28s for us to make the 8, let alone with a couple of riders...

no way that is 28-1.

Jesse Hogan is already 17-1 to win rising star. Getting on that.

Top 8 is 15-1.

So to get only 28-1, he has been ripped.

I don't remember saying I put that bet on all I did was put those 3 options in sports bet app on my phone, and the return for $20 was $568

Just did it than, those three in a multi bet for 20$ would return 16,830$

He'd have to be. The show is only worth watching for Stewie and Brian.

MacFarlane should kill off Chris if he has the blood lust.

They're writing another dog character in already. They'll just replace him and move on.

Thanks for making me feel better and taking note of my newest screen name.

Even if we made the 8 but were banished to 9th like the Bombers because of an injection program, I'd still take 9th

I don't really bet on anything so maybe that's the problem

Knowing AFL's even handed approach Vlad would fine us $500k and strip us of points for preseason tanking, or maybe even for our meditation (not medication) program,

Whilst I like threads such as these, and personally I'm always considering where we might finish next year at this stage in the pre season, the reality is that it's far too early to sensibly predict, even guess. We're not even at Christmas yet, and we have had a major overhaul in terms of coaches and players since October, many of whom are just starting to get to know one another's names.

By about late Feb we might start being able to get a handle on the way things are tracking under Roos, particularly now that we have some genuine midfielders to choose from and a midfield coach/mentor in George Stone who has a proven track record in teaching and implementing structures.

The ingredients look reasonable relative to where we were at 6 months ago, but IMO it's too early to say how quickly, and well, this cake is going to take to bake in 2014 and beyond.

But Roosey is very hands on at training, Wattsey is enjoying hinself, and Clarkey is out there giving the boys a boost, not to mebtion Hogesy. Top 4 for mine.

LIke! Got a poetic streak it seems, Biff?

Fair enough. I'd probably think about taking 800/1 - although the one I'd be most worried about is Melbourne making the 8.

I reckon that, although Hogan isn't a mid or a super good chance of winning the Rising Star, 17/1 is an absolute steal.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
