Answer 2

As a Brisbane girl and a huge Lions fan, I would like them to win the premiership this year, but I seriously doubt they will  although after their NAB Cup performance I think they could make the final 8.

A few weeks ago I would have said West Coast, but with all the drama surronding them due to the Ben Cousins drug saga things might be a little difficult for them this year.  

I would have to go with Adelaide to win it this year, with Fremantle and Western Bulldogs also a strong chance.

Answer 3

Doggies are the team to beat!  Doggies: 1954 & 2007!

Answer 4

I want it to be Geelong but i predict that Freo are going to win it this year. Who do you think is going to win???

Answer 5

It's really wide open this year.  A couple of weeks ago I would have said the Eagles, but the whole Cousins thing makes that a gutsy pick - I'm not sure they can win without him, as their second-tier midfielders will get a lot more attention now.  Sydney seem to hang around year after year, and bringing Everitt to the club gives them the ruckman they were missing in the Grand Final last year, but they've had a charmed run with injuries the last couple of years.  Fremantle could easily win it all, they could also easily implode and finish 12th as well.  Adelaide are usually in the mix, they can't get by the Eagles, and their knee injuries are to important players so I'm not sure they can get there.  St Kilda can't seem to get their best team on the field, and can't run with the Perth teams, so on a dry track in September you'd think they'd struggle.  The Bulldogs can run all day, but still don't have any talls of note down back - that will hurt them again this year.  Hawthorn are potential bolters this year - but you usually need to do an apprenticeship in the finals before you win.

Right now, I'd go with Sydney playing one of the Perth teams in the GF, and winning.

Answer 6

I hope the magpies have a good year they promise so much but they never seem to win the matches that are winnable to them,they have been in the finals on many occasions but have only managed 14 grandfinal wins, certain teams seems to lift against the magpies no matter what position they are on the ladder.  GO  MAGPIES.

Answer 7

Good question

Eagles will probably get off to a bad start with all their off feild drama. But west coast are certain to bounce back after 2 or 3 rounds.

Fremantle will definitely improve and I think next year would be the one for them.

Western Bulldogs, Kangaroos, Hawks, Brisbane and Carlton will be up there.

Sydney and Melbourne will be in the top 6.

But I am routing for West coast Eagles- if they get back to back (hopefully) It will show what a great side they are, especially with the drug problems going on with a few players.

Answer 8

GO BOMBERS!!!!!! James Hird you are a Legend!!!

Answer 9

WEST COAST.   THEY WILL BOUNCE  BACK.  would love to see the doggies win. they deserve it. magpies  stone cold motherless last!!!!!!

Answer 10

ha toughie.. the faves have to be the teams fromt he west, freo and the eagles.....

Answer 11

Freo will, West coast wont make the 8 - no players left after suspending all for drugs!!!

Answer 12

Sydney Swans

Answer 13

Melbourne provided they win enough games away from the MCG to get a top 4 possie at the end of the home and away.

Answer 14

Despite all the off-field controversy, I think the West Coast Eagles are the team to beat. Let's not forget last year, the Eagles started the season off under controversy as well, again through Ben Cousins. However, Cousins wasn't suspended last time. Still, West Coast has enough depth, and while no-one will truly replace Cousins, they still have enough cattle to go back-to-back.

Top 8 (at the end of the home and away season):

West Coast

Fremantle

Sydney

Western Bulldogs

Collingwood

Adelaide

Melbourne

St. Kilda.

Grand Final: West Coast vs. Western Bulldogs.

Answer 15

Being a Bombers man I'd love to see them come from nowhere but my tip this year is the Doggies. They've been getting better each year and were unlucky with injuries last year.

Answer 16

1. Adelaide

2.Fremantle

3.West Coast

4.Sydney

5.Western Bulldogs

6.Brisbane

7.Saint Kilda

8.Hawthorn

9.Melbourne

10.Essendon

11.Port Adelaide

12.Richmond

13.North

14.Geelong

15.Collingwood

16.Carlton

Grand Final-Fremantle over Western Bulldogs

I'm a West Coast fan but i dont think they can get past all the drug drama for a second year in a row...especially now that Freo has the confidence after winning both derbys last year

Answer 17

My fav to win the comp is Freo -my team.  I have been with them through good and bad and trust me there has been a lot of bad times!! The last couple years we have been proving ourselves and after last years finals experience I would say we are in with a winning chance for the flag this year.

I am hoping for a West Australian GF with my boys coming out on top this year.

Failing that I think the Swans, Adelaide, Bulldogs and Saints will be in good form come september

Answer 18

I want Adelaide to win, but I dont think that will be the case... I reckon that it might be Fremantle....

I've been an Adelaide supporter for as long as I can remember... which is probably as long as the clubs been around... I think they formed in 1990??? well, hey! I was 3 in 1990

Answer 19

Western Bulldogs and Hawthorn are threats this year with their new and improved team.

Answer 20

I couldn't pick at this point

Carlton for Wooden Spoon hat trick

Answer 21

Fremantle would have to be the best chance this year, certainly with the minor premiership.  They may struggle in the finals though. If Adelaide do not have to play West Coast in the finals, they will be a strong chance of winning the premiership.

Answer 22

Essendon

Answer 23

Hopefully the Mighty Magpies,I have been a Collingwood Supporter for 35 Years,I am 43 Now and they have had Heaps of Chances to Win Premierships but havent come through for Me,Collingwood Football Club Premiers 2007.

Answer 24

hopefully the bombers but maybe not this year

would love to see saints win it if the dons  dont
