1. GWS

2. Anyone, that is, ANYONE other than Essendon. I’d sooner a Collingwood three-peat than one Essendon flag.

If we made the granny then I would have no qualm if we lost to St Kilda this year, there fans have suffered more than enough and I dont mind Brett Ratten.

2nd choice Brisbane

....

...

18th choice Bombers.

 

Only problem is that they get a priority pick.

Brisbane, preference St.Kilda, same reasons as above, a lot of long suffering mates.

Don’t you get enjoyment out of their suffering? I know I do. The thought of anyone winning the GF other than us makes me feel ill.

GWS midfield:

Kelly - Whitfield - Taranto - Green - Hopper - Ward - Coniglio

If their talls stand up - Himmelberg, Hogan and Ricardo - they should be top 4 easy and my tip to lose the Granny against us

I'm of a different opinion. We're not the only club with talented players, but what was our point of difference in 2021? I think it was the selfless approach which the players talked about. Given the follow the leader mentality in the AFL, I expect to see those teams that get the selflessness approach right to be the ones who challenge us.

A club that has just made Toby Greene its co-captain hasn't understood anything about selflessness. Greene is the poster boy for selfish behaviour.

If not us GWS

I'd like Saints to win so they can experience the joy after years of heartbreak but mainly so Carlton have the longest premiership drought 🤣

What a hideous decision to make. 
Soft spot for the Aints…No way. let them suffer in the wilderness for a few more decades. 
they were a Nightclub back in the 80’s 

I really have no one else I want to win the Flag

Live is too short. I want to see at least 4 in a row 

At least!

I just want to say to those people saying negative and mean spirited things about Essendon…

I completely agree.

The funniest thing I've experienced recently is Carlton and Essendon supporters having a go at Melbourne supporters on BigFooty for being arrogant! Obviously born this century, I had to let them know about the reputation of Blues and Bombers in the 80s and 90s and even into the 2000s which really only got wiped away after salary breach penalties/two decades of being crap and drug cheating penalties/a decade plus of being crap.

If not us then I think then Port will win.

If not us I would like to see the Saints win. I know there are plenty that laugh at them having only the one premiership and now the longest drought, but we showed that they're made to be broken and I'd like to see them win it before the likes of GWS, Freo, and (lol) GC win their first.

I thought Brisbane were the second best side last year, so if not us, I think they'll win it.

GWS and GC would be the easiest teams to watch win it though.  Does anyone know someone who seriously supports (not vague, nominal support) either of them?  And winning the whole thing is probably the only way the AFL will see any return for the huge investment that has been put into those teams, which begrudgingly benefits us all.  Apart from Greene, they don't have any players I dislike.

I'd like for the saints to pinch one... however not this year. This is ours again.

I'd also like to see the $uns get one before GW$. Theres been far too much arrogance from that western Sydney team for the last few years despite their newness and lack of clout and lack of supporters ... I also hate the Sun's the least out of any other club

Worked with a bunch of them back in the day. Didn't know so until Sheedy came and they started to win, boy did they come out of the woodwork and so cocky with it.

I never want to see Hawthorn win another flag. I'm sick of them

I'd like to see Essendon lose the grand final by a goal kicked after the siren. that would be hilarious

That’s me but with Essendon’s final winning drought. It’s just so funny. Long may it continue.

The Lions. We match up well on them, but I think their midfield will go to another level this year and be very hard to stop.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    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

    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
