Thought i would start a thread to make an outlandish prediction for the year ahead, good or bad.

Here's mine..

Lynden Dunn will become of the Demons best players by the end of this season and will be handed the captaincy for season 2009.

Rivers and Whelan will play every game

Bruce will actually kick straight this year :P

1) Dees to start the season slowly before coming home like a train winning our round 22 match by 89 points to scrape into the 8 of % over Collingwood.

2) Once in the finals we then proceed to the Prelim with ease before coming up against a red hot Brisbane side, TJ kicks 3 we loose by 8 points.

3) YZE_Magic makes a run at the Demons Presidency after PG does not reapply for the role. On the back of his verbose, slightly off centre all about me campaign he scrapes in by 3 votes and MFC never looks back.

I agree that we'll have a slow start to the season, sadly.

But our second win will come against Carlton in round 5, and will be a corker.

2-3 then doesn't look so bad. And after that a bit of confidence comes in, we'll be getting close to the full list, and start winning games.

Into the eight with about 13 wins, win a home MCG final against an overated Collingwood...

and that's where my predictions end, because tipping well into the finals is just daft!

Dunn to breakout, possibly as CHB!!

After a disappointing year, Neitz, White and Yze will all play their farewell games in round 22.

I suspect a lot of truth in that one. ( though not sure if White's contract runs next year.. but he'd be clever to retire anyway )

Before the NAB debacle I had us at around 7-8... Im not so confident just presently with that..and might think 9-10

Idont see it as a year of being perennial easybeats. I think we'll have some good games and maybe more bad ones.. But they will only really be bad for not gelling properly. I still think we're definitely two KPP short of serious .competitiveness ( FB really concerns me ) .

I see it as a season of moments.. There wil lbe somepurple patches as some players find their 'groove thang " and get rolling.. A few stalwarts wil put in final efforts and out game wil lstart to shape up. There will be a changing of the guard as more and more of the youngens step up displacing some of the 'furniture'

I think the year wil be remmebered as one of "finds" as a few emerge from shadows to lay claim to permanent starting 22 status.

Who knows what injuries may play in the big picture...hopefully not much.

Probably not the year we'd book for our 150th but far from our worst.

go DEES !! :)

even year will strike again and we'll go top eight after a big push in the second half of the year, and will sneak a win in an elimination final. Wheels will play every game and finish top 5 in the Bluey

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
