We are the shortest odds of any team to win in Rd 2.  When was the last time that happened?

When we win next week and Richmond lose and drop to 9th spot, order will be restored. 

I had the pies beating the swans, regardless of that game I had them beating the Tigers. Now no Steele and Swan against no Lids. 

Still thinking Pies. 

Howe might be back and Reid.

Ben Kennedy would be a nice in for the 'Pies. I don't rate Richmond and will tip Collingwood, they'll want to bounce back after an embarrassing round one.

Don't think the Pies will get the chocolates Ethan. The loss of Swan & Sidebottom along with a speedster/goal sneak out in Varcoe will leave them very exposed. Even against a fairly decimated Tigers line up. Rance should be able to hold Cloke to say 2 or 3 max (hasn't kicked more than 2 goals in last 7 or so) and then it's just a matter of shutting down their smaller brigade up forward. Can't see how the Pies can kick a winning score. Whereas the Tiges still have 2 decent avenues to goal in Vickory (one trick poney but can mark/kick a few and bring ball to ground for their crumbers) and Reiwoldt of course.

We're out of the 8.

I think the humour of your thread got lost somewhere along the way Mr White. I took great delight explaining to both Hawthorn fans and West Coast fans at a BBQ on Saturday night that my team was undefeated and their teams had not yet won a game.

We win by 60 points and we could easily go to 4th

It is most likely that at the completion of round 2 there will be 8 teams on 2 wins (including MFC, of course). I wonder how long it has been since the whole of the top 8 were undefeated after two rounds....hmmmm??

Pretty sure the Bombers were paying $5-$6 last year and then shortened as the week went on.

Hopefully a win against the dons will see us move up the ladder. North Melbourne will be an interesting test for us.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
