2015 Ladder Predictions

[KoopKicka]

North above Freo is an interesting one mate!

A number of people have done that, I found it interesting as well.

The gap between their best and worst is pretty average (I know as a Richmond supporter I can't really speak but...) and the tougher draw probably won't do them any favours imo.

McPharlin is a massive in for them though.

I liked the way Toga done his. So I'll try it too.

Obviously the season is a long way, away. But here is how I see it atm:
Genuine contenders: Hawthorn, Sydney
Contenders: Fremantle, Geelong, North Melbourne, Port Adelaide
In the race for finals: Adelaide, Essendon, Gold Coast, Richmond
Not quite there: Brisbane, Carlton, Collingwood, West Coast
Bottom 4: GWS, Melbourne, St Kilda, Western Bulldogs

[elephants]

WCE haters errywhere. I live to prove the majority wrong ;D

[Ringo]

Do not forget the vagaries of the draw based on finishing positions so can see some changes. Can see Gold Coast making the 8 based on this and with the return of GAJ. IMO top 4 set order may change but any of teams 5 - 13 can fill positions 5 - 8.

2. Sydney
3. Port
4. Fremantle

5. North Melbourne
6. Gold Coast

Just a point to note they beat every one of the final teams last year, they don't beat up on the weak teams if anything they play their best on the big stage.

[SydneyRox]

My point on NM is that, they had some good wins vs the top teams, but if they have to play Hawks/Port/Swans/Freo twice then they are not going to have as much success to this year where they played Melb, Dogs, Lions, Adelaide twice

[Jroo]

Waite/Franklin/Hawkins 3 way Coleman draw

Roos would be getting good value for money, if they can get a Coleman out of him  :o :o :o

Pumps out a full season without getting suspended or injured, he can go close.

Pumps out a full season without getting suspended or injured, he can go close.

Jarrad Waite playing a full season? That's optimistic  :P
But yeah, I reckon he should do well if doesn't miss too many games.

5% chance of him playing an entire season. But if he does and pulls his head in he will coast North into the top 4 in style.
