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

- Brett Goodes to be elevated to the Senior List by Rd 10

- Brett Goodes also to be elected VFL Captain before the season starts

- Funding for the Ballarat upgrade to be held over until 2018 and beyond

- 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)

- A new major sponsorship will be announced to either replace Mission or compliment Mission

- Matthew Boyd to be dropped at some stage during the season

- Easton Wood to DEPART the club following the season exercising his Free Agency rights

- 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

- The club will win NO MORE THAN 2 games played outside of Victoria (inclusive of the Cairns Home Game)

- Our win/loss record at the end of the season to be 10 wins and 12 losses
 
dwDOD=9 (I'm working on likely bookie odds ... anyone know what he's quoted at? He could even be =10!)

Sportsbet.com.au has him at $101 (Libba $41, M.Boyd $151)


They also have T.Boyd at $12 for Rising Star (Honeychurch $26, Daniel $41, Hamilton $81, McLean/Webb/Dale $101, Z.Cordy, Prudden, R.Smith $151)

COLEMAN: Crameri $67, Stringer/T.Boyd $101 (and for some reason Jason Tutt is listed at $1001)


And we're 4th favorite in spoon betting without Essendon in the market.

Thanks. I was obviously too stingy in my ratings ... $101 is in the "you need to be certified range"!
