Looks pretty accurate

After Dimmer is sacked who takes over as coach?

Anyone. Even the Janitors mop will do.

We usually pull out a weird upset there but it's pretty close. I have us more in the 8 to 12 games bracket but no finals. I expect Prestia  to be good and Caddy to be so so have his moments but also his blunders.  I expect dimma to be sacked too once we can't make the finals maybe only a few rounds from the end.

If we win more than 10 games, Dimma gets to butter up again in 2018
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

I think if we don't make finals he's doomed contract or no.

Would make the rhetoric about his contract extension untenable for some of the people who appointed him in the first place.

We aren't a bottom 4 team.

we have some very vanilla players and a poo coach, but our top end is good enough for us not to be a bottom 4 team.

I remember saying exactly the same thing at the end of season 2008.

Wrong. Two years ago a magpie supporter I know went to an end of season wrap up. The powers that be, said they were aiming for the 2017 flag and their main rivals would be GWS and the bulldogs. 100% True.

Yeh look, I think we just need to sit off the ball a little more this year...and with the inclusion of Prestia and Caddy, we're all of a sudden looking like flag favorites"
