Fox Footy AFL Season 2016 Predictions

Featured Replies

Posted

I remember watching last years Fox Footy season predictions and Melbourne was predicted a couple times, possibly more, as wooden spooners. Was great scrolling through the list and seeing nothing but Bummers, Carlscum and Lions as finishing on the bottom. Until I saw this...

Dont know if he's genuinely delusional and can't see the massive progress we've made, or if he just really has it in for this great club. Maybe he's trying to be controversial. Either way, what are all our thoughts on McLure? Seems like an irrelevant stubborn idiot. The kind of dinosaur who'd cut sick if his daughter brought home a boyfriend who wasn't white.

Maclure is way too over emotional. He takes a small point which may be valid and turns it into Armageddon.

He is rarely correct in his predictions . The problem with fox footy is they are on 7 days a week covering every game and this requires a raft of commentators and "experts". 

To quote a number of coaches - "we really need to close the gap between our best and our worst" (Maclure to me is one of the worst)

 

Mclure is a parasite plain and simple.

It continues to amaze me that Fox footy continue to hire this [censored] year after year. He adds nothing but ourdated tactics that might have worked in the 70s. 

The quicker he is irrelevant the better.

if we finish below Essendon and Carlton we deserve to be in the VFL and Hogan won't be joining us there haha


McClure:  Plenty of emotion, no analysis, no cognitive ability, no understanding of the modern game, no common sense.  That's the kindest way I can put it!

Let's just all call it  Maclure is a dlckhead !!

How you can have even the likes of the Boos and the Druggies above us is laughable.

Learnt to disregard him eons ago. Cant take seriously. Wgat an idiot.

Who cares what Maclure thinks?

I tend to agree, but I also certainly get my back up when an unrealistic call is made when we don't deserve it anymore.


Really just shows his ineptitude. The great thing is that these days, there wouldn't be anyone agreeing with that.

I provided my insights about Maclure via a twitter response.

 

Can't stand the [censored]. However, he does sum up the general public apathy towards our club. Outside of those astute enough to realise we are on the up, the general bogan thinks we're a basketcase still. It's going to be lovely sticking it right up a few this year - they will still be making excuses about losses to us for the majority of the year, before the average idiot cottons on to it

McClure is a buffoon. Exists in the media solely to target the oaf demographic.

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • NON-MFC: Round 14

    Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt? Follow all the non-Melbourne games here and join the conversation as the ladder continues to take shape.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
