What did you get right/ wrong?

[Donners]

Right:

- Bevan would be dropped
- We would miss the finals
- MOL, Barry and Crouch would call it a day
- Crouch would beat Aker one last time


Wrong:

- Thought Barlow would be a key part of the side
- Did not expect White to become a forward target
- Didn't think Pyke would play
- Expected Malceski to be back to his best

[Big Al]

Right: Knew I'd have several temper tantrums brought on by Umpires.

Wrong: All my postings on RWO

How could I forget that one!!! Me as well, in spades, brings on my footy turetts big time.

[2005]

Highly debatable that all of these will be right long-term.

Thats long term Plugger, question asked was what you got right this year.

For what its worth though, With Pyke & Mal.
Pyke will be a dud next year, Mal hate saying it think he might be trade bait.

[Bloody Hell]

Right

Grundy - Though I thought he would be the 3rd forward. Can't have hands like his and rot in the two's.


Wrong

Bevan - Thought he would be dropped, but didn't think he'd be back. Showed a bit in the last couple of games.

"Dud" suggests the player in question will never be any good. You can be a poor player with development potential, or you could be a dud with no potential. So Paul Chambers was a dud, while McVeigh wasn't, despite appearing to be early on.

You still may be right about Pyke, but it's far too early to tell yet.

[dimelb]

Right:
Crouchy, Leo and Mickey to retire
White to feature as a forward
Pyke to get game time
Bird and Veszpremi to shine
Wrong:
Baz to proceed to a glorious final season
Jude to fade
Roos to continue keeping his cool despite all provocation
We would scrape into the eight

[Hartijon]

Somebody,can't remember who, picked Hanneberry very very early as a star who could play . They got that soo right but did anyone pick him to play this year and get so many games?

Picked him very early in practice. And he kept shining in Ressies, which was almost embarrassing in comparison to some 3rd year players. But, are you kidding! I didn't think his mum would allow such a thing! And to be so good. Family must have just about burst a poofle valve with pride. I sure was. But no way did I think he would get a single gig this year, so cannot claim a Right.

[ShockOfHair]

RIGHT
Knew Leo would retire, expected MOL and Crouch to retire.

WRONG
The Swans to make the finals, Buchy and Melcho to be major contributors, Murphy to get a few games.

IN-BETWEEN
Predicted Barlow would return to seniors. Didn't predict he'd be half-crap, half-good.
