2011 Ladder Predictions

[harry45]

Know i no its a bit early. But it will be interesting to hear people's thoughts, My Ladder would have to be,
1.Collingwood I think the Premiership will come from this group with maybe
2.Hawthorn Hawthorn dropping to the red group or Geelong to the black.
3.Geelong
4/5.Adelaide and Fremantle Just not there could go either way.
6.Western Bulldogs Getting older and dropping off.
7.St Kilda
8.Melbourne I think this group could go either way, winner out of the
9.Carlton of the three makes finals.
10.Sydney
11.Essendon I think these 5 teams are just another year of making finals.
12.Richmond but undecided on Gold Coast.
13.Kangaroos
14.Gold Coast
15.West Coast
16.Brisbane Brisbane are aging, maybe Port could slip into the above group.
17.Port Adelaide

[Fadge]

Interesting. Early 2009 Carlton were bookmakers' favourites for the 2011 Premiership. Though the astute judges scoffed at that prediction.

Lets get this straight...Hawthorn beat one good team and suddenly they are winning the premiership next year? Kidding right? They are still a flip-floppy, inconsistent football club and its 50/50 whether they could win a premiership, they don't have the stability of Geelong to be a powerhouse for the next three years.

And just cause Adelaide won today, suddenly they are top four? You kidding? They are a transformed list and I really respect Craig for ending an era and starting one in the same year, but with a young group comes inconsistency.

With that said...

1. Collingwood
2. Fremantle
3. Geelong
4. Hawthorn
5. St. Kilda
6. Carlton
7. North Melbourne
8. Western Bulldogs

9. Melbourne
10. Adelaide
11. Richmond
12. Sydney
13. Port Adelaide
14. West Coast
15. Gold Coast
16. Essendon
17. Brisbane


Brisbane will get slaughted next year due to old players, discontent players leaving at the end of this season and Brendon Fevola's instability.

Honestly amazed to see how many people think North will go down hill from this year..

 

[HyperAgressiveDonk]

No, we will finish top 2 next year

 

[Simmonds2Hislop]

1. Carlton - Henderson and Waite will have a good year. Will have the best forwardline in the comp. Will struggle in finals. The new Port.
2. Collingwood
3. Geelong
4. St Kilda - Will continue to be boring.
5. Hawthorn - If Buddy can kick 80+ goals and Hodge stays fit.
6. Melbourne
7. Bulldogs
8. Sydney
9. North Melbourne
10. Freo
11. Adelaide - Taylor Walker will have a big year. Midfield still crap though.
12. Richmond
13. Port Adelaide - Home ground will net them a few wins.
14. Brisbane - Same as Port
15. Essendon
16. West Coast
17. Gold Coast - Will win a few games and generally scare everyone for the future.

Surprised with all the predictions of Melbourne in the bottom 8 as well

Most footy supporters are unable to project a fortnight, let alone over the course of a preseason.

For mine, I think of the current top 4 sides, only Collingwood is a 'certainty' to remain there. The other three are really aging.
