The Flag Will Wag 2024

Here is your chance to get in early for when another premiership flag flies high over Footscray in 2024.

We are going to win the flag, so start saving your pennies for finals tickets. While we wait for time to pass and the inevitable to happen I'd like to offer WOOFers the opportunity to make some perfectly reasonable and grounded statements about what will happen.

Here's a few prompts, if you'd like:

• <Player X> and <Player Y> will kick 5 goals each in the same game against <Insert Opposition>
  
• Bedendo will cement himself as a <insert role here> finishing 5th in the best and fairest.
  
• The punch up between us and <Essendon> really set the tone, that was historically memorable.
  
• Those two come from behind wins on the road were confirmation of this sides champion status. <Player> just would not lay down and accept what was happening.

I wasn't surprised when we went 13-0 to start the season, drew, and then never looked back.

- When Naughton was sitting at 45 goal 0 behinds at round 14, I knew no one was going to stop us.
- When Darcy made the AA squad it just seemed obvious after his season.
- When Harmes caught Petracca HTB for the 3rd time in 15 mins in the first quarter of Rd 1, it moved...

Bedendo will cement himself as a time trial king finishing 5th in his local Parkrun. ;)

Ryley Sanders will win the Brownlow but Harley Reid will win the Rising Star.

My favourite player Weightman will kick a bag of goals on my birthday again. I appreciated the 6 v North he gave me last year.

Riley West will establish himself as Libba's heir with a series of BOG performances after Libba misses 4 weeks with injury

Vez will come good.

If they introduce a GF pie eating contest I think Vez is in with a chance, but only if they don't need to run to get the pie.

All the talk of Richards playing midfield is tosh. He'll play the entire season in defence and make the All Australian 22.
James O'Donnell will show enough to make him our most inspired selection since Chris Grant at pick 105.
Charlie Clarke to play 5+ games

I can see that in a game against the likes of North or West Coast we could have 3 players in Marra, Naughton and Cody all kick 5 goals in a game and we win by more than 100 points.
I'm backing Bramble to make a big statement for us in the best 23 calculations.
I'm also backing Bont to go on a real BOG run in the brownlow with 3 weeks in a row winning the 3 votes.
And one more for good measure, we get all the main signings of Marra, Tim and Bailey Smith does well before end of the season.
