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 !!!!

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
