Well, Round 1 is upon us

First, my suggested team to take on the hapless Dorks

Its a shame that Sylvia wont be playing, as I was looking forward more than anything to seeing him show the competition he has arrived with a monster game to open the season. But alas.

B - Bartram Carroll Bell

HB - Wheatley Rivers Petterd

C - Bruce Jones Green

HF - Robertson Dunn Garland

F - Newton Neitz Davey

R - White McLean McDonald

I/C - Moloney Meesen Buckley Yze

Emer - Whelan Holland Miller

I am expecting Bruce and McLean to pull their fingers out of their pooper and give us plenty of drive from the middle. These 2 guys really have to hit top form for us to be good all year.

Aaron Davey to run riot. I firmly believe this is his year.

One of the Glen-fairies to try and do something tough, before being ironed out by the big skipper and being stretchered off the ground.

Buckley to electrify the crowd with some scinitillating runs through the corridor.

Moloney, Jones and Junior to dominate the stoppages.

Bartram to remind u just how damn good he was in 2006.

Bell and Rivers to do their thing, and dominate in the air and on the ground.

Results

Melbourne 21.15 141

Hawthorn 13.12 90

Goals - Neitz Davey Newton 4, Buckley Robertson 2, Bruce McLean Dunn Moloney Meesen

Best - Davey, Jones, Buckley, Rivers, Bell, Bruce, Newton, McLean

Davey - 24 touches, 4 goals

McLean - 27 touches, 8 tackles

Buckley - 18 touches, 2 goals

Jones - 22 touches, 6 tackles

Newton - 14 touches, 11 marks, 4 goals 4 behinds

Injuries - NONE

Demons by 51 points. Bailey starts his coaching career in grand fashion.

Great work by Bate to kick a goal without being selected in the side. I think I have underestimated his ability!

By the way Miller will play.

Campbell Brown isn't playing. Does that void your prediction YM?

Opps, my bad. Have edited original post

Whose the bloke at CHF then?

You mean the one limping around?

He will play

Great stuff Yze_Magic

You failed to mention the shock move of the day.

In an act of desperation by the Dorks, Buddy Franklin will be moved to CHB after Half time to try and stop a rampaging Brad Miller

Will that be before or after Jamar dominates the ruck and picks up 30 disposals around the ground? And at what stage of the game will the flying spaghetti monster make an appearance?

Have you bought your membership yet Yze_Magic? :rolleyes:

No, Jaded

I always buy it at the gate in Round 1. Its tradition.

By the way, I spoke to Chris Connolly on the phone about half an hour ago. Bate definitely wont play, so I have edited my team to accomodate this

I just threw up in my mouth a little...

Thanks for the laugh, Yze_Magic *hug*

He still kicked a goal, this kid just doesn't give up! Can't wait til he actually gets a game this season, will kick 20.

the FSM will not make a public appearance unless there are many pirates there to worship him. The FSM has been busy around the rest of the world creating bad weather and natural disastors as a warning to us all that there are not enough pirates. To think his noodley appendage would make an appearance at a mere football game is wishful thinking indeed...

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
