How many wins for the lions next year?

[Brisbane2013]

We are in a great position to maybe sneak into the top 8 next year, with 10 wins this year which is 6 more then last year we seem to be improving, and with staker, mcguire, mcgrath back into our side and if we can get tippet that would make things even better for us, But i'm predicting brisbane as the dark horse of 2013 .

I'm going for 12-15 wins and placing 7th-8th or 9th on the ladder.

Nah thats to ambitious. Probably much the same as this year to be honest. Can't see who they are going to turf out of the 8 to get those points, maybe Geelong.

 

[Spitta09]

Same as this year. Still 2 years off finals I reckon.

 

[Eth]

11-12 if they can snag Tippett.

Otherwise another ten.

Well predicting 2 more wins isn't really that ambitious after our massive improvement from this year, plus we have some great young kids and though we are very inconsistant we have also shown that we can mix it up with the top teams.

You're saying someone is ambitious?

 

[Burzum]

Between 0 and 22

 

[jonoman89]

10-13 I'd say, so definitely pushing finals.

Major factors are whether they snag Tippet and whether Leuenberger can have an injury free year.

 

[Groupie_]

Between 7 and 11 wins IMO.

Leuenberger should take it easy for the 2013 season, ben hudson has been doing a great job and they should constantly switch

 

[Doss]

10-13.

 

[WWSD]

If all things go smoothly i reckon Brisbane will finish 8th-10th which is achievable. With the list they are building i won't be surprised if they do very well next year.


B: McGrath Merrett Patfull
HB: Drummond MaGuire Hanley
C: Adcock Black Rich
HF: Polkinghorne Brown Staker
F: Banfield Lisle Green
R: Leuenberger Rockliff Redden

INT: Zorko Bewick Raines Beams

^^^ That is a very good young team

 

[GreatBradScott]

12 - 13 wins, 7th to 9th.

Someone hasn't opened their eyes since 2010.

As to the OP, I wouldn't be surprised if next year is a year of consolidation rather than shooting up the ladder. 10 wins should be very achievable again.

BOOOOOOOOOO!!

 

[SSSSSS]

If Crazy Vossy can maintain his sanity as he did this year and the list continues to improve (very young, and exciting list I must say) then I reckon 11-12 wins isn't too much of a stretch. I think they can achieve 10 wins again though, I think we will be seeing a lot of improvement over the next 2 years.

 

[Handsuper47]

I would say around 10-12 wins, but if the competition is about as competitive as this year they won't move up too much (I'm guessing 10th-11th).

 

[ioppolo]

Exact same as this season, 10-12 and between 10th-13th on the ladder.

 

[Zagg]

Why does everyone thing the league will pretty much end the same as this season - there's almost certain to be some movement.

If Brisbane have a good season, get Leuenberger back & bring in Tippett, then they're every chance for finals.

I'll go for 12 wins, 10 losses.

 

[Harris Specter]

I remember when people were assured Brisbane would be in the bottom 4 in the 2012 season.

 

[ozgamer]

I'd like to see us beat the same teams below us again (Port, Melb, WB, GC, GWS) and beating mid-table teams like (Rich, StK) at least and a couple more upsets on top of that

 

[____]

Depends on draw and who we recruit in the off season.

It's good that we haven't lost to anyone who finished below us this year, but we only beat the teams above us twice. We need to beat the North Melbourne, St Kilda, Carlton, Fremantle type teams to make the finals.

Assuming that the list stays the same and the fixture is similar to this years, I'd say anywhere between 11-15.

If Crazy Vossy can maintain his sanity

This isn't Bay 13.

Between 0 and 25 would be more accurate
