I was on Squiggle last week and got it to Auto Predict the Season and it had us finishing 2nd.

Did it today after the round had finished and it's not as pretty.

Not sure how the permutations work though

    Can't believe they risked him. Extraordinary decision.

    GEELONG spearhead Jeremy Cameron is set to miss at least a month of matches after scans revealed he had suffered his third right hamstring strain of the year. 

    Cats have: Carlton, Fremantle, Richmond, North, GWS, St Kilda, Melbourne

    Don't think they'll miss him too much in some of those games.

    This almost becomes irrelevant when we lose to sides like Adelaide, Collingwood and GWS.

    They're top team because they get it done against these teams when we simply don't. 

    I'm not arguing that they're not a good side.

    I'm arguing that we can still beat them when we play them again.

    I've been saying for weeks that us dropping games to bottom 10 sides doesn't make us a pretender or incapable of making/winning finals, it jeopardises our shot at a flag because of ladder position.

    But the prediction we're going to finish 5th comes off the back of assumptions that we'll most/all of the Port, Bulldogs, West Coast and Geelong games. Our form this year suggests that is unlikely.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
