2021 Wooden Spoon

[Joshen]

Bias but I would be surprised if it were North.

Everything went wrong in 2020; worst injury list in the competition (including our best midfielder and forward), obvious challenges in the hub and Rhyce's situation. We still didn't finish last (albeit just).

I can't see it being worse next year. You tend to get an artificial new coach boost, the youngsters will improve (on average) and we tend to do pretty well out of our Tassie games.

Hawthorn is my pick.

 

[Ok Boomer]

The smart money will go to Richmond I would have thought.

 

[Roobs321]

Adelaide for me. Just feel this is one of those horror hard luck eras a club occasionally has. Nicks to not see ‘22.

 

[JackFlash]

It's not very strong at all recently, but North, Essendon, Hawks and Pies are all candidates!

 

[Mr.X]

Unlikely to be Roos, they are too proud a club and won't fall any further.

Demons, Swans, Bombers and Crows to end up bottom 4 in 2021.

Bombers and Demons likely to occupy bottom 2 spots

Nope, we will jag about 5-6 ugly wins by less than a goal and finish around 14-16 and thus spend another year avoiding the dramatic off-field clean-out that we could justify if we got the spoon...

 

[LuckyBounce!]

Is nice to not be high up in everyones wooden spoon lists for once

Perhaps if you can Dunkley and a key forward to replace Daniher. But with you losing Daniher, McKenna, Fanstasia, Saad, Bellchambers, it's hard to see you winning any more than 2. Your midfield is full of short people, you now have barely any targets inside 50, no experienced ruckman and both of your half backs are gone, and so is your best small forward. Even with all those guys, you were pretty poor this year. The spoon currently has your name on it as far as I'm concerned.

 

[juss]

Surprised their arent more votes for Hawks, their list and best 22 is awful.

 

[Rod Stroker]

I think we'll finish at the bottom. Of the 8.

 

[Tackle Bag]

Bombers. Something not right at the moment at Essendon. Off field issues, not sure their coach is the right man and the list isn’t much.

 

[Roby]

Hawthorn 100%, easily the worst list in the league

Geelong won't make the finals next year and will be the worst team in fourth quarters.

 

[Roby]

Easily Essendon. They need another McGrath.

 

[Fadge]

Collingwood are imploding, cultural issues, salary cap trouble and a coach and President who have been there too long.

I feel as though I've been in a time machine and found myself in 2017...

 

[Fadge]

Collingwood are a dark horse with the enviable (and self inflicted) exodus they are having and no standout kids coming through the ranks.

Wishful thinking.

 

[JT_the_Man]

North or Hawthorn. Probably North.

 

[emuboy]

If the season runs reasonably normally next year, North are going to get some terrible hidings week in week out, providing the better teams with match practice and a healthy percentage boost. I think the Kangaroos are going to be something like the Sydney Swans in 1993, Fitzroy in 1995 and 1996, Fremantle in 2001 or the GWS Giants in their early seasons in 2012 and 2013.

8 votes for Richmond ... so much salt

 

[Juddernaut08]

heart says bombers

head says north

Geelong won't make the finals next year and will be the worst team in fourth quarters.

What's that got to do with wooden spoons? Or did I make you upset because I think your team has the worst list in the league?

 

[Dr Awkward]

A few clubs in the mix, I think it often comes down to injury.

I voted Adelaide because they have lost Crouch and the list is very thin if they get a few injuries.

Welcome to success.

The salt for Hawthorn still continues 5 years after our last flag.

 

[BigVic]

North for the spoon

Are you upset? I'm not.

 

[Wojcinski]

Are you upset? I'm not.

I think you are since your post had no relevance to the topic. Don't be upset that your team is garbage, it's called equalization (and poor list management)
