Prediction The Rolling Outrageous Claims Thread

[TheWoodenSlug]

Would it be outrageous to suggest that Gold Coast will win at least one final this year? Reckon they're finally on the right track and building nicely.

If that's not outrageous enough - Mullin will be All Australian in 2027 (will be spoken about and potentially make the AA squad in 2026, but won't make the final side due to not having the 'body of work' required - similar to Miers last year compared to this year where he should be a shoo-in if he keeps up his current form).

Nah the first one is still pretty good. Making finals, not so outrageous. Winning at least one right away? It'd be a big story.

Second one definitely fits the bill, although Mullins talent and attributes are obvious. Making the AA side as a defender is really difficult so I'd say even players like Zuthrie and Henry you could say it'd be a bit outrageous.

Especially since there are only 5 spots up for grabs every year...

Not outrageous. Making a prelim for them would be outrageous

Alright, let's make it that then!

Actually, **** it. Gold Coast will win the flag (but Gary Rohan will win the Norm Smith medal).

Now THAT is what I'm talking about

Sadly, GWS will be premiers in 2024 ..
We may be the bridesmaids again

Outrageous. They’ll have to get past their Harbourside neighbours.

 

[Mr Meow]

This one should get the juices flowing...

Duncan has not one, but two decent seasons of footy left in him. His 300th game will still have people incorrectly shaking their heads that he should've hung them up in 2022.

Two games less than 20 disposals in a row and a few are indeed saying he's cooked.

We've improved with him across half back ala 2022. His ball use has been strong to generate scores from turnover and the stats bare that out.

 

[Kobe Gryant]

Outrageous. They’ll have to get past their Harbourside neighbours.

Don't they have to worry about showing up in the GF before they worry about winning it?

The Swans make some of our finals debacles look like pretty reading.

He did have a few rough patches in involvements but once he gets moving he's peak Duncan again

Not a lot left in the tank for him but thank God it's not zero

 

[catempire]

I’ll start.

Sydney will win the first of back-to-back flags on Grand Final day 2024.

 

[Mr Meow]

I’ll start.

Geelong will beat Sydney to seal the first of back-to-back flags on Grand Final day 2024.

Wow!

Nice call.

 

[catempire]

Wow!

Nice call.

 

[Vdubs]

Outrageous?
We will not win a game in May.

 

[Lana]

Outrageous?
We will not win a game in May.

Well at least you're doing this right

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Well at least you're doing this right

Couldn't get more aligned to the intention

 

[Vdubs]

Parfitt will get back in the seniors this year and will still be best 22 in 5 years.

Ollie Henry will be the next forward to kick a ton.

Not at all outrageous.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Outrageous?
We will not win a game in May.

I have a counterpoint.

And his name is Kenny.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

A bit of fun. Let’s see how this goes.

1. Rule #1 - outrageous predictions only

2. Rule #2 - no matter what the state of the evidence, you must return to double, triple, quadruple down on the outrageous claim throughout the year. Expect to be tagged in by others to face up.

3. Rule #3 - you have to make an outrageous claim before you can pick on others

Outrageous claim:

catempire actually could have eaten a normal parmi but chose the lady parmi to generate intrigue from others for himself in his quest for BigFooty stardom.

Parma you filthy heathen

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Parma you filthy heathen

Oh god not this again

 

[Warhorse]

Hawkins will be a liability this year. I think that fits the criteria

Unfortunately the big fella needs a rest.

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Unfortunately the big fella needs a rest.

My outrage is slowly moving to the bargaining stage of grief

should be dropped and Jeka should come in

 

[cats_09]

We'll win the VFL premiership

Hmmmm.... This is working against my outrageous claim

Admittedly Williamstown are still playing against Casey as we speak, but it's been a while since we were this high on the ladder in the VFL.
