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?

    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.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
