Despite the coaching change and the recruitment of midfield depth we're still on the nose with the punters -

$4.50 Hawthorn

$5.50 Fremantle, Sydney

$7.00 Geelong, Collingwood

$13.00 North Melbourne, Richmond

$21.00 Carlton, Essendon, West Coast

$26.00 Adelaide

$34.00 Port Adelaide

$101.00 Western Bulldogs, Gold Coast

$126.00 Brisbane Lions

$251.00 St. Kilda

$501.00 Greater Western Sydney, Melbourne

 

Obviously the optimism for a improved season shown on Demonland is not shared by the betting fraternity.

 

Personally, I think the destruction of culture at the Swans will set them back out of the top 4 next season. Just my two cents. They were a far worse team this year than they were the year before, and they had Tippett for half of it.


As a non gambler....I couldn't give a stuff of what punters or bookies think or expect

I imagine that Port's odds last year were very large.(if that's the word)

Both are just guessing like the rest of us.

And the betting fraternity have had such a wonderful time recently ! :-)))))

One week at a time what odds for us to knock off the saints.?

 

The odds look fair to me.

MFC only has once chance of winning the Flag in 2014 and that is if every other teams is forced to finish 9th on the ladder.

I take it from this that we're seen as likely to finish in the bottom 2 in 2014.

They are seldom wrong RB.

However these sort of markets are not ones that hold a lot of money.

I guarantee you that if you rang them and said I want to put $1000 on the dees they would not take the bet.

Leave aside the dee faithful there would not be one reasonable judge who would predict us to get out of the bottom four in 2014 .

The problem with any club faithful is we all over rate our list.

There is a reason we have won six games in two years is it that we have a poor list.

One pre season will not turn us into a silk purse.

Three may but one won't IMO.

True OD overall the MFC list is still poor.

OD this is how I see the MFC and what it needs to do to improve in 2014:

The MFC does have a few good players and its appears to be a better list going into the 2014 season.

However you would expect most other Clubs have also improved their lists as well.

To me the MFC new recruits appears to be boarder line players from othe teams.

If there is improvement in 2014 IMO it will come from getting our best 22 consistantly on the field without injury.

Also the Club needs to have a winning approach to games and not accept continual defeats.

From a Club point of view I could not see how it could have done things differently to improve itself from the beginning of the 2013 season.

New Presient, board members, CEO, coaching staff, improved mid field, major sponsor were all steps in the right direction and very much needed.

Prior to the first test, what were the odds of Australia being three from three? Very different to today I expect.

Most of the odds on that table will change throughout the season, potentially quite significantly for some teams.

If we win some games early in the season, we won't be such a lock for the bottom two.

For instance, I reckon the Bombers might slide in 2014 - good list, but plenty of off field drama, and a tough draw.

Some, however, are saying they have the potential to be top 4 next year. I just don't see that.

In short, the odds are accurate in many respects. BUT, at this point in the year, they aren't particularly informative.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
