2016 Win wish list

[swishy]

After a slightly better season in 2015 we are looking to improve more in 2016. Yes there will be some guaranteed frustrating games that we shouldn't lose (please not essendon or carlton again) but we'll always pull off that odd surprise.

What games do you want us to win which we are realistically capable of?

Here's my list:
Beating St Kilda at least once (twice would be great)
Continue having the wood on Richmond
Win Queens Birthday
Beat the Crows (will be travelling to the game with my crows supporter mates)
Beat Port (I will also be at this game mostly like very drunk)
Geelong in Geelong again would be brilliant

oh god same here

I'm nervous they we could embarrass ourselves again this game, at least its round 2 and we can get it out of our way early.

Wish list?

Grand Final.

yep hope we smash them all their supporters seem adamant they'll beat us

I don't look at the fixture too closely, so I have no idea who we play twice or where we play teams home or away. But I want to win all the games we should win. That is Essendon, Brisbane, Carlton and St.Kilda. Win all those alone and we are well on the way to beating last season's win count. We should be good chances against Gold Coast, GWS, Collingwood, Adelaide and Richmond. Win a few of these and sneak another one or two where we are outside chances, and there is no reason why we can't go close to 9 or 10 wins. I cannot see us playing finals this year. I think 2017 is more realistic where Brayshaw, Hogan, Petracca, Viney, Gawn etc have a few more games under their belt together..

NORF!

I'm also all for winning all the games we should win. Which would be against all the teams we finished above last year: STK, ESS, GC, BRIS & CARL (7 wins). Plus games where we should be favourite like Round 1 against GWS (considering GWS have never won at the G from their 1 appearance there during their history). Anything else is a bonus.

Would love to break a few more hoodoos too. 2 in a row, win in NT (or just hurry up and scrap the selling of home games to the NT), beat Norf, win in QLD/NSW & win by 60+.

Win games we should by the margins we should. And a few upsets.

I don't think Essendon are going to be as bad as everyone is making out. I think they will finish higher than Carlton & will win at least a few games. Hopefully not against us.

 

[KickLongTackleHard]

West Coast in Melbourne please (I assume we play them at home again)

 

[Super Demon]

NORF!

Completely agree

I particularly loath Norf supporters and their totally unrealistic and unmerited false sense of "entitlement"

It been frustrating to say the least that such a "nothing" club has had the wood on us for 10 years.

 

[harry000]

Would love to give a team a flogging.... has been a while since we've smashed someone.

 

[booshboy]

Essendon (as always) and Queens Birthday, please!

 

[d33my]

Would love to win a game in Perth.
And North. At my last job I worked there for five years and not once could I gloat over my North-supporting boss.

 

[schmuttt]

Yeah, only one team has lost to them at the MCG, and guess who it was

I was more confused at "their 1 appearence there during their history".

Pretttttttttty sure GWS have played more than one game at the G.

 

[dylan93]

Whoops my bad! 1 win from their 9 games there! http://afltables.com/afl/teams/gws/overall_vn.html

West Coast?

Anyone know the last time we flogged a team?
