The Dogs are an interesting option, a lot of teams would love to have Bont, Macrae, Libba, Dunkley and McLean rotating through centre square and Hunter and probably Bailey Smith on a wing but their lack of ruckman has to knock them down a fair way I would've thought. Until Tim English matures (which could be this season) I think they have to slide outside the top 6.It's hard to say 'best', but it's a race in 3 for mine.
In terms of 2 way running West Coast and Collingwood are pretty hard to beat. Eg- The Prelim V Melb, West Coast lead the tackle count 59 - 35, a week later West Coast pull in 72 tackles and Collingwood rack up a massive 104!
Geelong still the best 'wow' factor. Ablett, Dangerfield, Selwood, Duncan.
I can see how people have the Bullies 'sexy football' midfield up there, and the Coniglio/Kelly 1-2 punch at the Giants is outstanding.
Richmond rounds out the top 6 for mine on the back of Dusty Martin. He's such a dominant player.
1. West Coast
