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.)

 

 

 

1. Brisbane (will absolutely smash lower teams and have a crazy %)

Bold call: Kozzie to sign a 4 year deal on $700k+ per season, and Gawn to kick 40+ goals. 

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?

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.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
