    I expect Sydney and Geelong both fall this year, Essendon are remarkably consistent in winning 12 games per year the past 3 years but they have had a very interrupted pre-season.

    GWS are an interesting one - historically, teams that get smashed in the GF miss the finals the following year but they bat very deep in the midfield. Losing Taranto and potentially Zac Williams are huge blows though.

Franklin is 34 now, Kennedy 32 this year. They definitely have some young talent, but I don't see them as improving from the wins last year where they were bottom 4. If anything, Carlton and Melbourne could go past them.
    I think Sydney's kids are going to be sleeper stars and wouldn't be surprised to see them push up the ladder, especially if they can make the SCG hard to play at.

    Pretty much 6-13 is a bit of a crap shoot, IMO.

    What's the reasoning behind North pushing up? They've had a terrible pre-season.

    Are we doing a bottom-10 too because after three quarters of Adelaide v Gold Coast I'm pretty much plonking the farm on the Crows earning the spoon.

    I expect them to be the big improvers this year. They finally have a decent spine, their midfield bats deep and their talented kids are buying into the program. A bit of luck with injuries and they could go far.


    GWS will go the other way.
