Poll - If Not Melbourne For Premiers?

[Demonstone 19,302]

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.

Voters are anonymous so don't be afraid to add your choice.

+1 Freo. Followed by Bris, GC the maybe Swans. Everyone else can cram it.

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.

[gs77 3,330]

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!

Must have been Jaded… have to say, it is still ours to lose i am not ready to concede anything, I would personally like to beat Collingwood in the GF.

[dl4e 5,593]

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

[Bring-Back-Powell 13,246]

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

Pfft Imagine liking the blues. 

[deegirl 1,306]

Taking a mature view - anyone but Carlton 

[Demon_spurs 1,670]

I voted and now I feel unclean

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

[david_neitz_is_my_dad 3,927]

Fremantle. Aside from the day you won’t ever see or hear about it

[ding 5,126]

Sainters because i can relate to their pain.

[Dee Viney Intervention 1,484]

[Jaded No More 58,124]

If anyone votes Geelong they deserve a ban 

[Bitter but optimistic 21,286]

We WILL go back to back!

Back it in - I have!!!!!

[Big Col 1,107]

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.

[Sir Why You Little 34,583]

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

[At the break of Gawn 3,519]

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.
