Big call: Big call after tipping us for the premiership?  Hmm...

Gawn, Petracca and Oliver will be considered the top three players in the game by the end of the year.  Legends will be sung.

At some point Charlie Cameron will kick 30 goals in a run of six or seven games.

Edit:  Adding one more thought - there will be a lot of teams with very few wins and very poor percentage this year.  Think 2016; seven teams with 15+ wins, a couple of stragglers 3 games behind that competing for the also-ran status in finals, then nothing worth remembering

Ladder prediction:
1. Brisbane
2. West Coast
3. Richmond
4. Melbourne

7. Port Adelaide
8. St Kilda or Carlton or loose change

...I hadn't actually paid any attention to that, but now that you bring it up, I'm thinking you wouldn't be really unhappy about being proven wrong there 😂.

To be honest, it hasn't surprised me at all to see the decline of the likes of Collingwood, Geelong, West Coast and to an extent Richmond.  All those teams have a large number of key players on their lists who have slowly fossilized over the past few seasons.  I've been somewhat expecting our list to deliver in their mental maturity for a few seasons now as I think that was the only thing holding us back and now that it seems to have clicked in that respects, I fully expect to blow the aforementioned teams off the park more often than not, with the superior physical fitness that comes from our core players being in their prime window.

GO THE MIGHTY DEMONS!!

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break. Thankfully, the offseason has recharged me, and I’m back—ready t

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
