You said in another thread you'll be sending your left nut to someone if the Hawks make the finals, well i'll send you mind if the lions make it. B)

Posted

The Lions have a better chance than the Hawks, for 2 reasons

Jonathan Brown and home ground advantage

Posted

1 player doesnt get u into the finals sures hes influential but he cant win the whole game for them week in week out

Posted

I wouldnt be so sure about that

A fully fit Jonathan Brown is a beautiful thing to behold.

My word.... Some of you guys have some real time on your hands. Did you really go through EVERY game AND predict a margin? I know I'm up at nearly 3am posting on this site, but that is true INSANITY :blink: . I do like the predictions though. Go Dees.

Yes, I went through and predicted a margin, and no i dont have heaps of time on my hands.

Everybody's preditions are pretty good

Other than a vehicle for the stimulation of discussion these predictors are a waste of time. The winners of most major tipping comps have a strike-rate around 68%. The average mug has a success-rate not much better than even money. The predictors are a measure of your ability to pick 8 winners. Gee, there are only 21 million million possible ladders to choose from.

Freaky, that ladder is pretty close to my own.

From memory, I went with

WC

Melbourne

Freo

Dogs

Adelaide

Sydney

St. Kilda

Richmond

the rest

I made comments including 'Kangaroos to finish lower than 16th if they lose Nathan Thompson for an extended period' and 'West Coast could drink themselves if not under, then at least down the table.'

I feel guilty about Nathan Thompson, and now I fear I must pity the unfortunate Kangaroos.

Really hoping my dire predicitions for Essendon, Brisbane and Collingwood all come true, though!!

Jeez, without Thompson and Harding for the year I fail to see how the Kangaroos can kick a winning score yet many of you have them winning 5 or 6 games. They will have to rely on Grant and Jones for the majority of the scoring, both of whom are midfielders or HFF at best and also two young rookies that like to crumb the packs but without Thompson there will be no packs to scavenge.

Their defence is already being built around Hansen who, is a massive talent but, is in his first year and cannot be expected to take the #1 forward week in week out. With their best ruckman having to play CHF and a ruck combo with a combined 23 senior games to their credit, I think they are a shoe in for the spoon and first crack at Judd in the PSD.

Interesting the differing opinions on the Lions. Very hard to predict where they will end up.

But as I was going thru the fixture, it struck me that we could have a bloody ripper season on our hands! I believe Geelong will finally do what they have been promising their supporters for a long time, and finally stand up!

As for the dees, well a home final against last years premiers would be a nice way of testing our theory of improving each season!!!

But as I was going thru the fixture, it struck me that we could have a bloody ripper season on our hands! I believe Geelong will finally do what they have been promising their supporters for a long time, and finally stand up!

As for the dees, well a home final against last years premiers would be a nice way of testing our theory of improving each season!!!

You have the Dees in 4th meaning they would play Geelong!

Carlton in the 8? ...............................................

Although if we lose at the cattery, we would get a home semi against WB or Saints, and then it would be off to play Freo or Sydney in the Prelims.

Also Carlton in the 8?

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
