Round Three Predictions

Featured Replies

Posted

Being footy fans and keen Demonland posters, we all think we have at least a reasonable working knowledge of the great game of Aussie Rules.

How many times have we sat watching a game and thought to ourselves, or said to friends or family, I knew that was going to happen? And who doesn't like being right?

In this thread, I'd like us all to have a bit of fun predicting things that will happen during games, comments that will be made by the media, and any other amusing footy-related stuff. 

Over to you fellow Demonlanders....

My first prediction is that the commentators tonight will fawn over Essendon and use the line "heroic effort" at least twice during the game.

As well, in each game at least one player will deliberately put the ball out of bounds and then exclaim his innocence when pinged for it, McAvaney will exclaim that we are witnessing something special, and a Selwood brother will end up wrapped up like a mummy.

Gut feeling that Essendon will win. As much as I would hate them to win, it would make last weeks loss the slightest bit easier to swallow. The slightest.

I hate to agree on this point, Ethan, but unfirtunately I do. By the end of the round, Essendon will be ahead of us on the ladder. Boy do I hope I'm wrong.

for those who don't yet know how crap us & Essendon are you'll find out tonite game will be over at quarter time 5+ Goal lead & win by 15 goals.


The twilight zone will be over tonight and Essendon will be crap again.

I hope so.

Which player do people think will get the yips in front of goal this weekend? And one of our players doesn't count.

 

I am predicting that neither the bombers or port are god enough to beat each other and it will be a draw. Or Port will smash them.

Port are so overrated,

I think 'Bruce' will say something like,    "well he's always been good at kicking goals"  ah there ya go.

 

 

"and off a step"

I also predict that one of the Channel 7 team will make a really bad attempt to speak Chinese with the game being broadcast into China.

Essendon are handing this win to Port.  A complete different team than we saw last week.

Port by a landslide.

Edited by Bells

Port playing exactly how we should have played last week and how every team will play vs the Bombers

Christ we are a dumb footy team

Way off WAM. 'Twas a five goal lead a third of the game earlier than your crazy left-field suggestion.

It's not about dulling the pain Maple

it's about demanding a better effort from our "elite" football team. 

We all knew Essendrug was going to be sh!t

but we rolled over....

Well said. Its qrt time and you were spot on. Wnat will happen against north

I think EFC have been getting ahead of themselves...obviously not taking Port seriously enough.

  • 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.
