Back in March I presented my predictions for season 2007 HERE.

Now, I must confess that a few things happened that threw a bit of a spanner in the works and some of my "fearless" predictions didn't come to fruition. For that I apologize - particularly the one about today's contestants Fremantle and Melbourne finishing top four. Kangaroos and Brisbane fighting it out for the wooden spoon was a bit of blooper too now that I think about it.

However, I did put my reputation on the line and, despite the fact that I have a good excuse in that my crystal ball was stuffed at the time, I accept the full responsibility for my errors.

Now, one of my better predictions was that Hawthorn would make the eight and, given St. Kilda's loss last night, it would be safe to say that the Hawks cannot now fall out of the eight unless they suffer two defeats of more than 100 points at the hands of the Bulldogs and Sydney in their remaining games. Even if they happened to find themselves embroiled in some deep and dark controversy or in some major spot of bother over the next eight days, that won't happen.

So to Mr. Yze Magic who responded to my prediction about the Hawks making the finals with the derogatory statement as follows:-

"If Hawthorn make the Finals I will cut off my left nut and mail it to you."

I say - I'll have the other nut now please!

It is an Australian thing to do, stand by your promise, but I bet he won't have the balls to do it !!!!

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    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.
