Matty Lloyd!

Not sure I hate him anymore.

 

I've always loved Lloyd & Kingy ?

6 of them had us in the 8. Including Loyd, Brerton, King and Jay Clarke.  King had us as high as 5th. Not sure Ive always found him that reliable but he DID pick the Neeld diaster before anyone else. Lets hope they're right. 

8 of them thought Stkilda for the 8. I have sense it may be them or us.

Agreed.

I would have also included Paul Keating's top eight. About as meaningful as a number of expert opinions offered here.

That magazine cost $4.95

haha as if i would shell out a fiver to read any analysis by Mark Robinson. 

I am hoping he gets sacked mid season before any coaches.

Jon Ralph is the type of guy to bet   $100 on Black Caviar for the place.

he never gets it right and he belongs on SEN for that.

mid season there will be a few who try to get on the Demons bandwagon but I hope not too many.

the Pharisees and oracles never saw the Bulldogs coming, never saw Leicester,Cronulla,Brexit or Trump.

glad to be under rated at this stage of the year.

we will finish fourth or higher in my opinion.

Glad we helped the Blues to five bottom choices.

Last week Ralph suggested that a player had a hypertension of the knee.

Not kidding.

Of Course Essendope to finish in the 8 according to Slobbo!

I think the top 8 predictions show who are at least capable of recognising a list with young developing talent that is due to ripen, and those that just follow the pack.

Cooney with Port Adelaide in the top eight says a lot about Cooney.

He grew up in Port Adelaide heartland so I think he’s just being loyal.

Agreed- he's predicting we'll beat Hawthorn in a final - that would really add spice to the Jordan Lewis trade....love the thought of that happening (only mild payback for the grannie in 88)

I like Lauren Wood's statement.

Most likely we could win the same amount of games as St.Kilda, don't know about the other 2 teams though. 

Round 1 is building up to be a cracking game between the Saints considering how many people can't decide which team will make the 8.

I think we will have a better understanding by round 2, I hope we're not disappointed again.

The only surprise in the o.p, is that slobbo didn't nominate the "brave returning, persecuted hero", and new captain, heppell, to win the Brownlow.

I just watched the video of king and Robbo debating melbournes chances, take a look it's good for a laugh, robbo looks like he got his shirt out of a dumpster and even says Jamie bennell was good in the back line last year, think he got him mixed up with Jetta

I agree.

But the point he's making about a ruckman winning the Brownlow is actually addressing an interesting side issue. The Brownlow has been too heavily weighted towards midfielders for the last 20 years. Getting rid of 3rd man up will help true tap ruckman; and limiting interchange to much fewer than now would give key position players a chance of winning.

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. 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
