In the unlikely event that Melbourne don't win the flag this year, who would you like to see as Premiers?

I've only included those teams that I think still have a chance at this stage of the season.

My preference would be Fremantle because they've never won one, followed by Gold Coast then Brisbane.

    I won’t remain anonymous.
    Quite sure I’ll be alone in my choice and I’ve boldly declared my second team before, so… join the dots! 😃

    I'd personally only want the Saints to win a Granny as I know how many tears I shed whilst watching replays, interviews with past and present players the live game and the many docos that came after we won. Everyone else can let me put it mildly. SABFD. Especially the interstate teams.

    Technically, that means that if our preferred alternate premier beats us in the GF, we will be happy.😒

    I DON'T THINK SO!

    Lions for mine.  Like Fagan and remember attending Fitzroy's last finals series back in 86 with some Lions supporting mates.  Be happy to see them take the choccies if it isn't us.

    Voted for Brisbane - I find Fagan likeable. F Freo - 2 team state with ludicrous facilities etc. - happy for them to remain flagless.

    St Kilda would have had my vote, as we can relate to their supporters' pain at their premiership drought, but not for a couple of years so it gets beyond our 57 years of pain.

    Geez, I thought I’d picked an unpopular team… someone’s picked Geelong!

    Absolutely none of them. However I did give a vote and  it was for the saints.

    Gold Coast Suns. Particularly if they beat a VIC side such as Geelong or Collingwood.

    GC are the side that least bothers me and Melbourne would be a ghost town on GF night.

    Freo, i used to play for a Dockers and we had a partnership with freo, playing an annual east west game with their east perth reserve side's juniors at the time and the players would give us a clinic after a melbourne weekend game the following morning.

    followed by the blues - controversial but my mum and auntie's side

    and the suns coz it would be phenominal for them and my two buddies up there ;)

    lastly the lions coz i don't know any supporters so it would'nt stir me up

    WCW your posts are normally so good and quite funny and then you go and blow all your good work by fessing up a few times on Demonland that Carlton are your second team 🤮. I just don’t know how anybody can have that arrogant club as their second team, my sister and niece are fanatical Carlton supporters and I still hate that Club. But each to their own, keep up the good work.

    I don't think I could handle the build up to that game. Of all the teams, I would hate losing the GF to them most of all. My heart would give out before the first bounce

    Sainters because i can relate to their pain.

    Cast my vote for Freo and I forgot about St Kilda. I'd like them to win one soon but I SO don't want them challenging while we're at/near the top and  taking the 'neutral' crowd from us. I think in a GF we might still be 'neutral' favourites against anyone except the Saints
    Once we've won 3 or 4 that wouldn't be the case and I wouldn't care any more ayway.

    I want all 17 Clubs to be in pain 

    I have seen too many opposition Clubs win flags. If we Fail to defend our Status i will have no interest at all

    As long as Richmond don’t win. Their nuffy supporters will say that Melbourne only won in 2021 because of all the injuries Richmond had.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
