Herald Sun 2020 Predictions

I think it's far more likely that Adelaide get an extra first round pick after Brad Crouch joins the Cats on a five year multi-million dollar deal as a RFA.

There are a few 2020 RFA's that might attract a first round pick; Wines and Viney come to mind.  Both out of contract and both recently lost their captaincy.

With all the Academy, FS and high quality FA's the 2020 draft will be a bit of fiasco.

 

Re Daniher, various clubs who need a tall forward will back themselves in to rehab him - it sounds like his rehab issues were as much (lack of) motivation at Essendon as physical.  Given that a club only has to stump up $ and no draft picks I suspect it won't only be Sydney keeping an eye on him.  I reckon he will get a package that with/without some AFL fiddling, rates him a first round comp pick.  Whether that is pick 2 or 19 depends on where Ess end the season.  Landsberger was suggesting they will be bottom 4.

Im not sure which part i liked more.

The fact that so many have us missing the Finals, or that one person tipped us for the flag.

Strange feeling.

Pretty big difference! Good on Moons for really sticking his neck out (love the mic drop as well!), I don't see it happening this year but if we're not in the mix for top 4-6 I'll be disappointed. The first 4 rounds are just so important for us.

I meant that we wont have a lot of extra pressure on us to perform because so few of these commentators tip us to be much chop. Also makes it more enjoyable to prove a few of them wrong.

I was happy that one thinks we are good enough to win, but also happy to be underdog.

Like i said, its a strange feeling.

This has to be more ammunition for coaches.

"Most commentators think your [censored], don't select you to get in the 8. 

the AFL think your [censored], didn't consider most of you in the bushfire showcase.

Your opponents think your [censored] and they can beat you in the last quarter.

YOU ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO CAN CHANGE THIS, get out there and win."

And can be delivered at the star and at 3/4 time

if in front need to keep there because "etc"

if behind do you want to prove them right or are you better than that.

You are not watching the caring and community Hell and Back, obviously. :)

Damp very much an advocate of the H&B narrative.

We are together, we are a teamthat was the worst, we are fitter we are improved.

Now need the match day rev up targeted at that day.

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
