Well finish 4th
With 15 wins
Sidey will take the copeland
And Cox will kick 63 goals
Daics crumbling plenty and taking the rising star
as well as a top 3 finish in the brownlow for Sidey
The big Coxs success will be known around the globe
and he along with; Grundy, Treloar, Sidey, WHE, Faz, Daics & Pendles will push for AA selection.
Dominant PIES will be headlines across the country, with the biggest story being the decline of the Giants as their hierarchy implodes. _________________ Don't count the days, make the days count. |

At this time all of us desire a good season and without any facts to back this up I have a notion we will have a better win to loss ratio in 2018
Enough to move into eight ????
There are other clubs in bottom eight club who,s supporters are thinking simalar thoughts and apart from us knocking off the power sides we must
not let ourselves down by dropping games against side,s we shared bottom eight with _________________ I'm not arguing--just explaining why i am right |

inxs88. You refer to one of our players as a cockroach. What does that make you?

9th
10-11 wins
Howe to win Copeland
Mason Cox top goalkicker with 37 goals
Pendles steps down as captain at seasons end.
We have our customary 6 week patch of horrible form and drop games that we shouldn’t have.
Rely on too few once more
Unable to kick enough goals on a regular basis is once again our Achilles heel
Headline at years end will be all about Lynch (if he still hasn’t re-signed with the suns) _________________ - Side By Side - |

FMD, Hope Springs Eternal at the beginning of the season.
Is it a case of don't get your hopes up so that you're not disappointed, or is that your outlook...?
With my rose coloured glasses still in the draw, anyone who thinks that we will be worse this year than last is incredibly pessimistic or really does have a crystal ball! I won't guarantee a high finish but with just an even break we'll be better this year. _________________ Go Pies! |

I did mine without looking and found they were so close to Qldmagpie’s that it’s not worth posting. The only changes I’d have from his are that I expect Moore to have a breakout year. I really can’t wait for the season to start. It’s too many sleeps away. _________________ Two more flags before I die! |
