No way Collingwood's missing finals.  They could win it.

I think they might sneak into the 8 but no way they have a run like last year especially with Suns, Blues and Port pushing back towards finals.

    Would be nice if we could beat them for a change

    I don't understand the hype on the Tigers. i see no evidence at all to suggest they're a legitimate premiership threat.

    We should be less worried about Caroline’s prediction & more worried about the article saying ANB will spend more time on the ball

    Now I'm really worried. Wilsons' judgement on actual footy matters (you know, the game played on an oval-shaped field with 18 players per side)* is generally appalling. Would rather have her predicting that we finish 15th. We'd be certain of winning the premiership then. 

    * Unless it's Footscray, in which case you play with 21 players.

    These (CW, JN, MG) are the same people who started our premiership year describing us as "guilty until proven innocent" and laffing their heads off.

    Care factor for their opinions? Zero. (Less than zero of possible.)

    ANB Will only get mid time if he is playing well. He played back to his 2021 form vs Tigers in the prac game.

    Last year she bagged MFC for getting a crowd of about 30k against an interstate side then Richmond got an even lower crowd the following week.She said nothing on footy classified of course. She did say what a great CEO Tricky Gil has been.

    Vomitious stuff from Caro the daughter of a Richmond FC president.

    Great memory. That comment by her was typical. Some people just don't know when to hive it away

    I think there is every chance that they miss finals. Time and time again it has been shown that wins in close games regress to the mean.

    More than that, though, their brand of attacking, high risk footy is highly susceptible to structured defence. Teams will put some work into them this year. Daicos will not be allowed to waltz around with 10m of clear space to pinpoint a target. Teams will close down the corridor and play an interceptor a kick behind play. The ridiculous mythology that the media generated about practicing to win close games will be shown to just be Lady Luck playing her hand.

    Good call.

    Daicos among others wont be allowed to run amok like 2022. If we think other clubs have figured dees out , it'll be alot easier with the pies.

    Have we worked out which one of us she fancies?  (Asking for a friend)

    OMG this is the Kiss of Death, normally I'd be stressed by her backing the Dees, but decided to put her in the category  of a broken clock being right twice a day. More than once (but especially with Bevo) she has gone after someone just on how they look, which I consider being a bully. She is not a nice person, she doesn't have the love of the game that a Flanagan, McAvaney or Sheehan has at heart, she'd rather grind an axe.   

    Oh and in a decade I have never lost to her on footy tips, or ever that I can recall.

    The least offensive thing about her is her love of Richmond, don't mind that, you're allowed to be delusional about your own club, WE ALL USED TO BE THAT! 😋

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
