Funny thread. At the end of 2012 Port Adelaide wouldve been having the same thread with arguably the same results. A traded player showing so much (Ebert), backing up their only good player (Boak) and

I'm very excited about next year. This year played out pretty much as I expected, which was a great effort, considering the loss of Mitch Clark and Jesse Hogan for the year. They were HUGE holes in th

Oh ye of little faith .... I believe 8-10 wins next year, around 12th and then the next year let the party begin!

this is a depressing thread. it'll be interesting to see what people are predicting in March when we have wiped 2014 from our memory, finals anyone?

remember we were ahead in the last Q of 10 games this year (I think?), no reason to think we wont improve with another pre-season of Roosey and the young guys getting fitter. I predict 8-10 wins

Carn the Dees! only 6 months til round 1. woo hoo!! :-)

and, had we managed to hold on and win even half of those we would have had a quite respectable 9 wins.

Around 6 wins (maybe 7-8) would be a decent improvement and a pass mark for mine. The addition of Hogan along with Jeffy, La Bamba and Frosty will hopefully contribute to some improved performances. Not expecting any miracles next year.

We'll have the personnel to win 8-10 games but it's up to whether we can muster a convincing, healthy team together and play like one. Our belief was shot in the final moments of our Port Adelaide (x2) and Bulldogs (x2) matches. All I wish is for us to leave nothing in the tank in Round 1, throw everything at it, no matter who we're playing. Our last 3 years, our opening 3 rounds have been atrocious. I just want us to already look like a team once the ball's bounced in the opening game

I really have no idea.

It would be absolutely disastrous if they went another season with less than 6 wins. From an off-field perspective, it would make it very hard for the club.

I was hopeful of 6 wins this year. We didn't get that, but were close. It could have easily been 8 wins.

Is 10 wins out of the question? I don't think it's ambitious to expect that.

High Distinction: 8-12 wins

Pass: 6-7 wins

Fail: <6 wins

Adelaide: WIn

Carlton: Win

Collingwood: Win

Essendon: Win/Win

Geelong: Win

Richmond: Win/Win

St Kilda: Win/Win

West Coast: Win

Bulldogs; Win

Might be being a little too optimistic.

    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

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
