You stumbled because of various other reasons, and it has nothing to do with any of which you just said. Libba, Stringer et al, fair to say what ever was going within the 4 walls at the Doggies was not good this year.

Then how do you explain the Swans late start?

 

[Snake_Baker]

The bottom 4 prediction is wishful thinking rather than a prediction.

If Martin goes down with a long term injury, it is a certifiable guarantee.

 

[NaturalDisaster]

If Martin goes down with a long term injury, it is a certifiable guarantee.

We are still not a bottom four team without Martin.

One player doesn't make a team

Will wait for the Trade/Drafting to finish up before I make my call.

 

[Madtiger2006]

How moronic people are lol. Seriously we won’t make the 8 a couple of hours after winning the premiership? You don’t get more sour than that

 

[Bokonon_]

The fixture is a lot tougher when you win premierships. Richmond will play two games in WA, two in Sydney, Brisbane, SA, GC. Your fixture this year was so soft, because you didn't make finals.

You will also have 5 and 6 day turnarounds, because you will play more Friday night games. Oh and you will now become the hunted. This was part of the reason we stumbled in our flag defence.

Bulldogs actually had a very soft draw for premiers in 2016. The groupings are done on ladder positions and 7th is the middle tier.

How many times has a premiership team missed finals the next year? History goes back more than 12 months

You got Adelaide to high. And West Coast to low

 

[Seedsfan]

We done it all year? And please explain to me how running and tackling is something that can't be replicated?

Collingwood 2010 was based off that. So was the Saints then latter the Dockers all these sides burnt out. That being said Collingwood and St Kilda both play in 2 GFs and 2 prelims in a 4 year window

 

[Madtiger2006]

By the way, our draw won't be any tougher. We don't have to go to Geelong next year. We will probably play in Sydney instead. We will play top 8 teams more but they will drop out next year. Top 4 should be the aim

 

[Hawk Dork]

A few teams rely on 1 man and they are 1 injury away from going nowhere so its hard to predict.

Mumford’s impact isn’t that valuable to the Giants. I’d go as far as to say they should play Lobb as #1 tuck in 2018 because of his height and versatility. Mumford takes a step back now I say. Cameron, Greene Haynes and Davis are a small group whose value is greater than Mumford’s id have thought

 

[Dogs_r_barking]

Bulldogs actually had a very soft draw for premiers in 2016. The groupings are done on ladder positions and 7th is the middle tier.

Soft draw really? Two games in WA, one game in Canberra, Sydney, Brisbane, Cairns, Geelong, with usually 6 day turnaround. We were the away team against every finalist this year.

Are you sure you are not letting your obsessive hatred of the Bulldogs get in the way of rational thinking Bok?

I would suggest you enjoy basking in the glory of your win, and not think too far ahead.

The Swans will not start as badly again, they really were the best team in it since round 7 and only lost three games in that time, no double chance cost them the flag!

Port will improve enough to seriously challenge provided they keep Kochie well away from it?

The short people are also losing player's, but will be compensated for it. The Ferrari's biggest drawback is in the pits.

Adelaide will hang around, but they copped a huge dent to the ego in this Grand Final, wouldn't surprise me if they tumbled right out of it?

Bombers will challenge seriously along with Port...Stringer will be 50 goals plus for them, may play off?

Demons surely have to make finals, they might be paying overs for Lever, it better work?

I can't see my Cats making too many inroads, retirements, players leaving, Ablett return? Rumours of discontent? Could end up 15th? My bias says 7th. Trade table will determine their future in 2018.

Saints to come alive in 2018? At least 8th anyway.

As for the Tigers? Expect the unexpected or is that the expected? I expect them to go the way of the Dogs in 2018!

Grand Final Swans V Port or Essendon

Smoky - Melbourne

Biggest disaster - Gold Coast will not win a game!

It's all a big guessing game right now, withdrawal symptoms are kicking in...it's a long time before March 22, i hope i'm still kicking?...Welcome back to the Cattery Blues & Hawks?

And that has happened so so many times in 150 years lol. Get over your loss to us. We will be just as good next year. We will find a gun tall. Our fixture will be no tougher next year. No game in geelong. Give us the eagles and power twice please. They did make the 8 after all lol

 

[Madtiger2006]

I am. But don’t expect to fall away like the dogs. That was either a bad drop off or dogs are about 7th best as they finished after home and away last year

Hopefully we play you twice that be awesome. We normally get your measure and should of last time just kicked horribly.
