I want to win the premiership obviously. Anything else this year at this point will be a disappointment.

Having said that, I'd love to see us go 20-0 no matter what happens after that.

Not sure about the veracity of this data. Where's Essendon in 2000, for example? Should be somewhere in the first column.

 I think it’s a column for teams that didn’t win the flag that year.

Nope, this is a list of undefeated teams who did not win the flag that year.

This list doesn’t include 1956 when we won the first 13 games of the season and won the flag.

...because the list only shows streaks by teams that did not go on to win the flag that year.

So my take from this is; around 30% of teams who achieve this go on to win the flag!

If you told me at the start of the season we have a 30% chance of winning the Cup at this stage, I would be a bit skeptical.

I'm enjoying each and every win.

I dont think we are the best team, but i dont think its fully clicked for us yet either.

What I am really enjoying is that this seems to be it. We look like a team who will have a successful run for a number of years.

Sure beats talking to all of you on here about who we are going to take in the draft and how good we will be in 5 years time.

Enjoy it!

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9.
