I really can't work out whether you're serious.

I'm going with, hmmmm,  a joke.

Was serious. You're referring to the 'tomorrow' in the original OP I'm assuming? I figured it would be fixed up soon enough, and hey presto....

I'll  be happy with 2-3 goals, 15 or more possessions and an improved attitude from Jesse.

More importantly I think we need at least 8-9 other players hitting the scoreboard, 2 -3 of them also being multiple goalscorers.

How many did Hogan kick against the Dogs reserves team in the NAB Cup? And how many did he kick against Carlton and Essendon last year?

Jeez some supporters get ahead of themselves when it comes to the MFC.

if we move he ball quickly and decisively, we should aim for 65-70 inside 50's

No reason why Jesse cant snag 12 goals

Pretty sure Hogan didn't play against the dogs in the NAB challenge. I also think Jesse will kick 4-5 on the weekend.

I'm tipping 8, Watts 5, Jeffy 4, Vanders 3 to win by 100 points, and go to second on the ladder...

This would be the only thing better than beating them by a point 2 years ago! I'd love us to return the 138 point favour from 2013!!

Hogan will be double teamed and kick 3. Pedo to have a day out and kick 7 as a result. 

#gopedo

Hogan to be moved to the backline at three quarter time in a match winning move. Pedersen will thrive in the last quarter without Hogan choking up the forward line and kick 10 last quarter goals to finish with 15 for the day. Long live #PedoMyths!

Sorry FITB, I was being serious.  How on earth can anyone think this is a "good question".  Would go down with the likes of:

  • How many goals will Jack Watts kick on Saturday
  • How many clearances will Clayton Oliver have on Saturday
  • How many times will Christian Salem kick it to himself when kicking in from an opposition point
  • Who will be third out of the race after the half time break
  • How many goals will Jnrmac accuse Garland of leaking in the first quarter
  • How many "likes" will Destroy All get in his first post in the game day thread
  • How many handballs do you think Matt Jones will have in the final quarter

And the list could go on and on.  I actually didn't think it was a good question but there you go.

I don't like the cockiness of some supporters and hope the players aren't thinking the same way.

This will be the big effort by Essendon this year, first game at the G, in front of the masses, showing their support of their club and their players should give the really big effort. 

I have seen so many games end in disappointment for us.

We need to play at our best in every game, otherwise we will suffer.

For me the win is paramount, if that happens, a big one would be great.

The ghost of Fred Fanning came to me last night and said 17. He was going for his 18th after the siren in the fourth quarter  and although it went through Goddard sooked it up and they sent it upstairs and the video ref pressed the wrong button and called it a point.

My tip is 3.

Mitch Brown pulled his pants down last year in the Nab challange but i also understand the vast improvement of Hogan so really who knows? Could the first gamer in Hartley who is 199cm 99kg go on Hogan?

We still need to work on our forward entries. Too many times we just bombed it into our forward 50 with no result.

I kinda feel like that hashtag won't quite catch.

Nice one.

I'm going out on a limb with 12. And another limb or two with.......a massive kneejerk reaction next week for the 'sign him now' brigade. Not to mention the bookies falling over themselves to slash his odds for the Coleman. And Dr.Turf in the rooms after the game congratulating Jesse. 

We love predictions here at Demonland.

Sharpen the pencils and buy a second footy record folks. I'll go out on a limb and suggest 15.  

Quarter by quarter it will be 3,3, 3, 6.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
