Red Faces 2015

[JAMES_B_101]

Has anyone gone out on a limb yet and said Bonti will win the brownlow? If not, I'm surprised. He has this one and the next ten sewn up.

 

[dogwatch]

Ayce Cordy to play less than 5 games in 2015 dwDOD=4
Caleb Daniel to play 10+ games in 2015 dwDOD=6 (lots of Daniel love on this board)
Michael Talia to play 18+ games in 2015 dwDOD=6
Bonts to win our B&F dwDOD=6
Bonts to be our best poller in the brownlow dwDOD=5

I was hoping to see a prediction of Bailey Dale to grow 3cm

Time for my 11 (some may be confusing but bear with me)
- The combined figures of our crowds at home games against non-Victorian Opposition (INCLUDING the Cairns game vs Gold Coast) will only be 15K (with a 500 person margin above or below) more than the NRL State of Origin crowd for Game 2 at the MCG dwDOD does not compute due to dw's head exploding ... but let's say =3
- Brett Goodes to be elevated to the Senior List by Rd 10 dwDOD=5
- Brett Goodes also to be elected VFL Captain before the season starts dwDOD=3
- Funding for the Ballarat upgrade to be held over until 2018 and beyond This is beyond current Red Faces time frame but would not surprise
- An article from any of the following "journalists" will question the long term future of the club at some stage during the season. Journalists are D.Barrett (9/MMM/afl.com.au) C.Wilson (Age/AW), P.Smith (Australian/SEN), G.Denham (Australian/SEN), M.Robinson (H-Sun/SEN), M.Rucci (Advertiser), R.Wilson (Daily Telegraph), A.Hamilton (Courier Mail Brisbane) dwDOD=2
- A new major sponsorship will be announced to either replace Mission or compliement Mission dwDOD=4
- Matthew Boyd to be dropped at some stage during the season dwDOD=4
- Easton Wood to DEPART the club following the season exercising his Free Agency rights dwDOD=4
- Brendan McCartney to bag the culture of the club in a tell all Footy Show or Footy Classified interview (either with Barrett, Hutchison or even Newman) before Round 15 dwDOD=4
- The club will win NO MORE THAN 2 games played outside of Victoria (inclusive of the Cairns Home Game) dwDOD=1
- Our win/loss record at the end of the season to be 10 wins and 12 losses dwDOD=7

#1- Alex Greenwood wins the VFL best and fairest by one vote
from Mark Austin.
#2- Liam Jones wins the coleman and kicks the ton.
#3- Shane Biggs and Jordan Kelly become pillars in a redesigned
back six.
#4- Ayce Cordy assumes the mantle of number one ruck.
#5- Hawthorn drafts Brennan Stack as a mature aged talent.

LOL ... are they all pisstakes or are #3 and #4 meant to be semi-serious? (They would be about dwDOD=8)

 

[Yojimbo]

You have a perceptive mind you can't fool some people.

 

[dogwatch]

Brett Goodes to play at least 10 AFL games. dwDoD=8
Mitch Wallis top 3 finish the Best and Fairest. dwDoD=4
Hunter top 5 finish in the Best and Fairest and have a breakout year. dwDoD=6
Dahlhaus to win goal kicking with 35 + goals. dwDoD=7
Stringer to kick 7 or more goals in one game. dwDoD=6
Minson back in form and gets into the AA squad. dwDoD=5

 

[dogwatch]

M Boyd will play R1 unless injured [just saw somebody posted same but I was thinking it before that ]

dwDoD=1

 

[dogwatch]

Macrae to poll more votes in the Brownlow than any other Bulldog. dwDoD=4 (he did it in 2014)
Stringer to be our leading goal kicker. dwDoD=4 would be close to favourite I'd say, along with TBoyd and Crameri (who might not even be allowed to play)
T. Boyd to have at least three games of 4+ goals. dwDOD=4
Redpath to kick 15 goals or more for the season. dwDoD=5
Daniel and McLean to be the only two draftees to play AFL games for season 2015. dwDoD=6 ... no love for Zaine?
Griffen pulls out of the WB v GWS game with 'soreness'. dwDoD=5
3 (Macrae, Liberatore and Stringer) in the AA squad of 40, only one to make the final team. dwDoD=7

 

[dogwatch]

Has anyone gone out on a limb yet and said Bonti will win the brownlow? If not, I'm surprised. He has this one and the next ten sewn up.

dwDoD=9 (and that's only 2015!)

Ayce Cordy produces nothing in the few games he plays in 2015 and is delisted as one of the most disappointing bulldogs players of all time.

I love how these predictions highlight the contrasting opinions we hold.
For instance, the above and

Ayce Cordy to play less than 5 games in 2015

- boydshow

vs:

Ayce Cordy will play at least 11 AFL games.

- timtamWB

or even the wry ...

• Ayce Cordy to take more than 5 marks over his head in one AFL game

- DogDays

Not to mention Yojimbo 's scary prophecy:

#4- Ayce Cordy assumes the mantle of number one ruck.

Something's got to give!
