Sales will be up due to a trend in more people needing to access the roof or other elevated surface.

Agree, just can't see them winning enough games to get them out of the bottom 4 this season. Their time will come, just not yet.

Why is that?

The Suns went 10-12 in 2014 and that was with Ablett missing 1/3 of the season.

The Giants are entering their 4th season and despite not having anyone of Ablett's calibre they should still win around 10 games or so.

Suns would've finished 6th had Ablett not got injured
GWS are behind GCS by more than a year despite only being a year younger. Unless Griffen goes to Ablett level like when he left Cats, I can't see it happening

i do not disagree with this ladder at all

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Most people would have the same teams in the top 5, the differing order in the top 5 by posters should be interesting.

No chance of winning 10 games IMO.

Do I have too? I agreed with a Hawthorn supporter? Enough said?

We're not all the same..............

Some of us are pretty rational football followers with great insight into the whole competition.

Some are not.

I think Geelong will make way for Port. The other 3 should remain in the top 4, with Fremantle the other one that might drop out, possibly for North. But I'd have mine like this:

1. Sydney
2. Hawthorn
3. Port
4. Fremantle
5. North
6. Essendon
7. Richmond
8. Adelaide
-------------------
9. Geelong (very huge call without any confidence, but it may be time)
10. Gold Coast
11. West Coast
12. Brisbane
13. Collingwood
14. GWS
15. Melbourne
16. Carlton
17. Western Bulldogs
18. St Kilda

Really don't know what to expect from the dogs. I thought they were going well and ready to take the next step based on their year. Thought they may push for a spot in the 8 this year until the off-season.

 

[GCNavyBlue]

Hawks
Port
Freo
Swans
Suns
Norf
Cats
Tiges

Crows
Blues
West Coast
Dons
Pies
Lions
Dees
GWS
Dogs
Aints

I personally think that the Swans might just slip out. I think it will be pretty even up the top.
