2012 AFL predictions

[Natters]

Chuck in who you think will win the premiership, anyone who will drastically move from last year etc.

[ShortBlackChick]

Gold Coast to be in top 8
Hawthorn to be legendary
Essendon to fail miserably under Hird, not unlike this year
Collingwood to own with Bucks and win premiership (I am just a TAD biased, considering I'm a pie supporter )
Port Adelaide to make a comeback
Richmond to be in top 8

This year was fucked up. Too many changes of coaching staff and too many surprises.

[observer7]

Hawthorn premiers
Western bulldogs bottom 3

Top 8:
Hawthorn
Collingwood
Carlton
Geelong

West Coast
Fremantle
Sydney
Essendon

[Natters]

I'm an Essendon supporter, and i might be biased in saying this but i think we're on the way up, i'd put us 9th-6th this year, Pears and Heppel will carry fletcher in the defence and Hurley will kick 60 goals if Hird does the right thing and plays him up front

Pies premiers (as much as i hate to say it)
st kilda to make the semi's and get carlton/wcoast/sydney out of the top 4
rest of the top 8: (in order)
geelong
hawthorn

coast
carlton
ess
sydney

freo are outta here, suns to challenge top 8 and gws to display some of the most boring one sided footy ever

[bawse]

Essendon to win the flag tbh

[ShortBlackChick]

gws to display some of the most boring one sided footy ever

Thats a given.

I dont think they'd get far anyway, even later.

I didnt realise how old, well rather young Heppell is. His girlfriend is pretty much our age, she's doing VCE this year and hopes to get into Health Sciences at Deakin. I got that info from the Brownlows LOL

I feel old now. Being a girl, I cant help but check out players LOL But my friends and I have realised that after this years' draft we'd be like pedos checking out the new rookies because they'd be younger than us!

[Natters]

lol true, though you sound kinda pissed about getting old
i'd put money on you breaking down when you turn 30 lmao

[ShortBlackChick]

LOL nah almost being 18 is fun. I can go perv on players in tight shorts now! Nice!
30 is different but I can see myself have a pseudo mid-life crisis. Although I'll probably console my self that I'd probably look about 15 when I'm 30- considering that fact I look as if I'm 12 now.
At least I wouldnt look old and toothless like a true Magpie!

On another note, does anyone think there's a chance of Fev being drafted again? LOL

[pi]

Essendon to win at least one final!


Port to lose to both GWS and GC

[Natters]

yeah port are and will be for the foreseeable future hopeless
and @ kaz, i heard something about carlton being interested and they sold their other forward, whatever his name was (irish sounding guy) but it died down and turned out to be bullshit
dont think anyone is going to risk it tbh

[aiming_95]

OMG how didn't I see this thread from before ?


My Predictions:

1- Cats to slide with the loss of 4 of their veterans
2- Pies  to be iffy for the first few rounds under Bucks, but then come back better than ever.
3- Carlton to be top 4
4- Essendon to play more consistent footy on the back of a grueling pre-season (GO BOMBERS)
5- Pendlebury for the Brownlow
6- GWS to have records broken on them. They will be miserable.
7- WCE won't have as good a season as they did this year. Probably finish 6th
8- Richmond to finish 9th... sorry that isn't a prediction, that's a certainty. They didn't get the nickname ninthmond for nothing.
9- Lance Franklin Hurley for the Coleman
10- Last but not least Fev to go to one of the following clubs: Hawthorn, Collingwood or Geelong.

[Natters]

no way in hell will geelong take fev when tom hawkins has finally come good =p

and as if carlton will make the top three man, seriously dont rate them as a side, maybe im biased

im just hoping essendon goes well
anyone else think hurley might end up at gws?

[abzzzz]

Haha Hawkins hasn't come good yet. Sure he had a great finals series, but his home and away season was average.
Also with Mooney retired, Fev would be handy back up.

Also meant to say Carlton top 4, forgot about the Hawks.

Hurley will never leave Essendon. He loves us

[aiming_95]

COOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLINGGGGGGGGGWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDD

What do you call two Collingwood supporters driving their car off a cliff?

A tragedy because at least 5 could fit in the car.


BA DUM tssshhh
