So you tipped them? The Dogs have been playing some good footy also but not always getting the wins.

Out of interest how many have you tipped this week? I’m on 1, the Swans. Just about everyone I know, or comments I’ve read on here or social media the most I’ve seen tipped so far is 2. Some tipped the Crows and the Swans. That also includes the so called experts on tripple M and SEN pages. If you tipped them that’s an awesome get in footy tipping comps. I see Ballarat being similar to the NT for us, Canberra for GWS and Bellerive Oval for the Hawks.

I'm leading the tipping and have 2 so far. Which is GWS and Adelaide. I almost pulled the trigger on Gold Coast (Brisbane looked tired last week) and wish I'd picked the Blues (that one annoys me as I should have picked them). re GWS, they are on a roll and have top end talent, sometimes momentum and confidence does bloody wonders hey! I must also say that I'm happy to get Geelong wrong as I cannot stand them.

They are 2 great gets. I managed to get back to equal first last week. This may sound stupid but from what I can work out the person who was leading purely takes the home team if they are the favourite.

Sometimes leading the tipping when its close late in the season can be the worst! All you do is pick the favourites, while others around you pick roughies that normally get up at this time of year.

Hmm, I do wonder how many of those scenarios are actually 'a long term coach left the club in a mess because they kept making decisions to keep their position tenable each year and eventually it all caught up with the club and left them in the [censored zone], causing multiple coaches to be burned through before any restoration began.

Kevin Sheedy and Leigh Matthews at least had a collection of premierships, but then at North you've got Brad Scott clinging on for almost a decade and being unmistakably responsible for wrecking the list and the culture.

Fun fact - Brad Scott's first season at North was an exact 50% win rate. He currently has exactly 50% in his first season at Essendon.

He also has an exact 50% win-loss rate in finals(4 -4), and if Essendon lose next week he'll have an exact 111-111 win-loss count from his 222 home-away games as coach!

We have had great list over different periods and never won a flag.  Goody has won us a flag and kept us in the top 4 for 3 years now which is a fantastic effort.  Premierships are extremely difficult to win and just because we think our list is better than everyone else’s this is not the reality in an extremely even competition. 

So the players will be happy with the Dynasty  eh?

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
