Counterbalanced by Mick.  We must be a certainty to play in the GF, as Mick never even picks the grand finalists in the top 8, let alone the premier.  His 2017 prediction:

MICK MALTHOUSE

  • GWS Giants
  • Hawthorn
  • Geelong
  • St Kilda
  • Sydney
  • Collingwood
  • Western Bulldogs
  • West Coast

"Old" Mick also forgot about Melbourne beating Collingwood in 6 of the 7  real Grand finals played between the teams so far.

He's a bitter old fart and should be ignored.

I haven’t seen us this highly rated since 2007!

over the years they have predicted us to be rubbish and have usually been right so should be ok

Malthouse rates our list, but he doesn't rate the club.

He also think we're too easily satisfied, as well as liking to drink our own bath water.

I am actually reassured by Mick's assessment.

Would have been concerned if he had tipped us. 

At the end of the day, I have no interest in what the tipsters have to say.

I just think that Malthouse has it in for Melbourne generally. He certainly is opposed to the mooted MFC training facilities in Yarra Park diagonally across from his apartment in Wellington Parade (even though it has no impact on him)!

 

Surprised at the general absence of Sydney and Hawthorn.  I counted 7 who did not include either yet the same folk included North.  Goodness me!! 

With all the woe befalling the Saints I wouldn't be surprised if they make a mad dash for the wooden spoon!.

Malthouse, you are a gigantic toss bag.

  • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
