Ladder Predictor - what's your verdict? Do we make the finals?

@Donnington thread from start of year

Don’t go full Donnington

Sorry if there is already a thread but couldn’t find it. What are your predictions? Here’s my top 8

  1. Geelong
  2. Brisbane Lions
  3. Port Adelaide
  4. Richmond
  5. West Coast
  6. St Kilda
  7. Western Bulldogs
  8. Collingwood

Have Geelong on top simply because they probably won’t lose a game at home, same with the lions, i think Port will still be strong again. I might be overrating them a little though. Richmond will still be there but may slide a little as they’ve bee up for a while. West Coast are ageing but will win too many home games. St Kilda have been building for a while. They nearly defeated the tigers in the finals last year they should make the 8. The Bulldogs aren’t great (still a very weak/average forward/backline) but their midfield is just too strong for them to not make the 8.
8th was hard. Carlton could make it. Also Fremantle who I rate. But I put collingwood in because their backline is still very strong on paper and teams who are hard to score against usually make the 8.

Some good quotes
