With the 2006 footy season drawing near, it's time to start making those predictions for the year ahead. You know the ones - Freo should be able to win at least 20 of their games this year; or Brett Peake has bulked up a bit so he'll win the Brownlow by a dozen votes. Yes, genuine, well thought out and grounded in reality is what we're after for the 2006 dockerland Vault. So get prognosticating.

You can get into the dockerland Vault by following the link on the left of screen (under the magnetic board) or by going clicking here if you're incredibly lazy. Once inside you can login and make your predictions for the year ahead or you can view other people predictions and laugh with a feeling of superiority when you see they have predicted Brendan Fevola to win the Coleman Medal or, equally as laughable, West Coast to make the top 8.

Predictions can cover anything from the ladder position at the end of the season or the Brownlow Medalist to number of tiems George Grljusich will say "okay" or number of goals Matthew Pavlich will kick with his tounge sticking out.

To log into the Vault and make your predictions use the same details you use to log into the dockerland Messageboard. If you haven't registered for the message board you can do so by clicking here.

Your predictions will be locked away in The Vault but you will be able to keep track of the predictions throughout the year and continue to ridicule predictions which are proven wrong while marvelling at the magnificence of those people who have made Nostradamus look like a rank amateur.
