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

1. Melboure

4. Sydney

5. Carlton

6. Collingwood

7. Gold Coast

8. Port Adelaide

Richmond

Fremantle

Footscray

GWS

Adelaide

Saints

Essendon

Hawthorn

West Coast

North Melbourne

 

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.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
