AFL 2014 Ladder Predictions

[Groupie_]

Haha agree the two sides have been very even recently but you have to admit the Tigers have the most optimistic fans in the league. Everyone knows that.

Nah, I reckon it's Essendon fans (tip their team to win the flag every single year no matter what)

There is a difference between delusion/arrogance and optimism

Still, they're always optimistic about it too

I would say the same about you guys too. Just have a listen to talk back from your fellow supporters about Ziebel losing 6 kilos and cunningtons legs making you a lock for top 4 and a flag .

Most that removed there tiger hate would safely say we are the most passionate and loyal but delusional, no. Now keep in mind that is from the tigers supporters mid 00 and onward before that in the 90's and early 00 most would be as you said optimistic due to still not believing we were that shit and the glory days are around the corner again

Lol, every team has crazy supporters on talk back. You'd have to be optimistic or masochistic to be a Richmond supporter in the last 30 years and not go crazy but if you'd rather be a 'masochist' than an 'optimist', who am I to argue.

 

[NorthernLights]

They've treated it like a grand final ever since they lost to us in that grand final ! they love getting up for the big one

I highly doubt the current playing group lose sleep over the 1974 GF.

 

[Bring-Back-Powell]

The OP had Melbourne at 8th.
Even though I'm a die hard dee member, there is no snow flakes chance in hell that we'll be anywhere near the 8 next year.
I have such a low opinion of my club. (Though the ride may turn soon)

I'll be doing cartwheels if melbourne win 6 games in 2014 and a percentage near 80.

This is just sad. For their supporters sake, I really hope Roos can turn Melbourne around

Is this a Ladder Predictions thread!

For a moment there, thought I stumbled across the Richmond & North Boards.

 

[Yellow Feathers]

Nightmare of a year to pick the top 8, top 2 looks easy enough though (Freo-Hawks), becomes a shit fight after that, Port-Bombers-North-Tigers-Crows-Eagles-Goldcoast-Swans-Cats-Blues-Pies will all expect to play finals, not all will though obviously, probably the most open season we've had in a long time.

Swans in the middle of the pack, eh?

There was no particular order after the first 2 mate, if I had to bet on the other 2 teams to fill the 4 the Swans would be one of them.

What are the asterisks for? Are those clubs going to get banned from the finals twice?

Not sure if you're just being a troll or not, but to him those teams are interchangeable in those spots. Don't agree whatsoever, but that's what he means.

Wow. You've certainly gone out on a limb there...

you think it's "typical" somehow? I thought it was brave putting Sydney top, I mean I don't think Franklin will just gel and there are question marks over Tippet for mine, I don't rate them to be superstars next year the Swans even though I admire their set up greatly. I really think it's hard to seperate 9-13 too and Gold Coast just snuck in because I think they're already ready to hit the competition properly and win a bunch of games, similar to PAFC in 2013. I was going to put Essendon first or second but went a bit more "typical" with the Grand Finalists so I guess I see your point there...

Consider my GF prediction Essendon v .. Port Adelaide

OK thanks. Wasn't sure what w/e meant.

w/e = what ever. don't mean to disrespect those clubs.. but I guess I have. I am not too good at the ladder predictor anyway..
