After having a look at the draw for this season as to the finishing positions of last year i really think Choco from Port might be in trouble

Port doesnt get much victorian press which is understandable

I can see them only winning 1 game against essendon in round 7 and maybe the next against carlton in round 11

We dont play them until round 21

After their dismal grand final display their confidence with be shot if the eagles beat them on sunday and thats in WA

I also expect Terry Wallace to be replaced after this season if Richmond doesnt make the final 8 and i doubt they will be consistent enough

Even if the Crows make the 8 i am starting to think time is running out for Neil Craig also

I also think this will be Paul Roos swan song and he might walk away from football altogether

With Collingwood and Malthouse who knows but time is running out

My predictions

NEW and SAFE

Blues - Ratten

Bombers - Knights

Demons - Bailey

Dockers - Harvey

SAFE

Roos - Laidley

Hawks - Clarkson

Cats - Thompson

Saints - Lyon

SHAKY GROUND (FINAL 8 FINISH DEPENDANT)

Magpies - Malthouse

Lions - Mathews

Bulldogs - Eade

Eagles - Worsfold

Crows - Craig

GONE after 2008

Tigers - Wallace

Power - Williams

RETIRE after 2008

Swans - Roos

REPLACEMENTS

Predictions

Swans - John Longmire

Tigers - David King

You also have to take into account these 2 new teams the AFL is planning to introduce and knowing the AFL as we do they will be planning there coaching preferences well ahead of time

The 2 New teams 2012

Sheedy Malthouse Mathews, Eade , Wallace , Ayres ?

And the new breed Voss , Buckley , Mckenna, Sumich , Bond ?

    I know you have put a fair amount of effort into to your post, but i see no point in discussing whether oppostion coaches may or may not be around next season, maybe take that over to Bigfooty.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
