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.

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.

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

Not kidding.

Matty Lloyd!

Not sure I hate him anymore.

 

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.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
