[Bombay Airconditioning 6,408]

Normally someone has started one by now….

Top 8 

Dees

Lions

Swans

Cats

Richmond

Dogs

Pies

Freo

I’m predicting no change from last season.

 

Premiers : Demons

Brownlow : Oliver (he’ll go to another level this season)

Coleman : Fogarty

Rising Star : Ashcroft but I’m putting a few multis on with Phillipou in them.

Wooden Spoon : Hawks (and they don’t care, they want pick 1, they got rid of a heap of talent last year. This is this template for future success.)

In order to get some value in a pre season multi, I have included Port Adelaide in my final eight.

Not much love for them above - does anyone else think they can make it?

[chook fowler 19,531]

we will or we won't. Not sure which.

I don’t personally, I think they could be 0 & 5 again.

Lions @ AO

Pies @ MCG

Crows @ AO

Swans @ SCG 

Dogs @ AO

It that was to happen, even 1 & 4 Hinkley will again be under enormous pressure. He’s had a long time with no success.

I tried uploading a photo but apparently it’s too big. Back in 2016 I put a few $10 multis on taking different combinations of the Premiers, Coleman, Rising Star and Brownlow. The bet that came closest had 

Premiers : Dogs @ $12.50 ✅ 

Coleman : J. Kennedy @ $2.75 ✅ 

Brownlow : Danger @ $9 ✅ 

Rising star : Oliver @ $10 ❌ (Oliver came 2nd to Heeney)

Would of paid $30,937.50

Premiers: Melbourne Demons (And how good does it feel to make that prediction realistically?)

Runner up: Brisbane

Brownlow: Oliver (made possible by an overall fairly even Brownlow count total in the low 20s)

Rising star: That Ashcroft kid.

Spoon: North Melbourne because Clarko is a tanker anyway.

Fun fringe things:

1st and 2nd in the Coleman are both from the same club

1st and 2nd in the Brownlow are both from the same club.

Alistair Clarkson joins the Pagan/Malthouse legacy of Premiership coaches who [poop] the bed at a new developing club.

Melbourne wins the premiership, keeps Pickett then gains Ben McKay as a restricted free agent, and recruits tall defender/swingman Daniel Curtin with its top ten draft pick courtesy of Freo, completing a defensive succession plan and made particularly sweet by knowing that he is exactly the player Freo would have taken.

In response to speculation about Melbourne's salary cap, three top players all reveal that they are only on about 80% of their 'market' value and that there are also others who prefer to remain private about it.

Yeah it's a toss up between those two. Then again there's always a left field one.
