If a different Sydney team and another Victorian club make it, would that be an amazing coincidence in football?
It's getting hard to imagine a world where Sydney doesn't win the premiership this year.
Are you looking at the mob playing right now?

Is that the black and red team or the other team Sydney handed their ass to them by 8 goals ?
Certainly the current favourite
Though the team that breaks away 1st half of the season rarely wins it all

A Sydney v Carlton big dance. We would be underdogs. The whole AFL world would count us out. Exactly where we want to be on the big day.
Any team can win from the top 4. Minor premiership means nothing.
And I am frankly super uncomfortable with us being the unambiguous favourites.

It'll be 2016 2.0 with Carlton being Victoria's adopted team

The only thing stopping Sydney winning is a grand final against Carlton Collingwood or Essendon where they'll have to beat the crowd and probably umpires too
Well a large majority of the team is the same core from 2022 with another 2 seasons under their belt.
So I suppose anything is possible AFL is determined for some reason to keep giving us Marvel games so if we get there again it would be only for the 3rd time for the season?

Zero chance Collingwood, Bombers or Tigers fans adopt the Blues in this case.
Or Dees fans
Or Saints fans
Or North fans
Or Hawks fans
Or....

No doubt the Swans are looking powerful at the moment but there’s a long way to go and first can sometimes be the poison chalice.
I will probably get laughed at for saying this but I think Freo could push for top 4 this year. Currently second best percentage in the comp and they remind me a bit of the Swans in 2005 when they broke their drought, where they didn’t win pretty but just got the job done. They will continue to be a tough task in Perth and they have shown so far they can win away this year.
Collingwood has been fantastic considering their injuries and Carlton deserves respect as well.

Of the current top 8 the MCG is no one’s home ground.

Carlton plays five home games there and only one more at Marvel. They’re both your home ground.

Yep. It will 2016 all over again. I was really hoping GWS would be in the top 4 for this very reason. Hoping port stay up and Freo can somehow make it too.
"It's hard seeing anyone but Sydney win it"
Yes at this stage Sydney are the clear stand out but apart from them it's the closest season in a long time. One of many teams could find form and go on a run, Sydney could lose form easily, etc.

Except, of course, the home ground advantage.
Imagine the fury/uproar/vitriol if that game was played at SCG
