AFL Predictions

Well here they are.  

Richmond - a great side just waiting for the right time to stop tanking.  5 premierships in the last 50 years - tell that to any Collingwood supporter.  Sure to tantalise again. Go Richo. Prediction - 9th!

St Kilda - 1 premiership. 1 awful - no make that three - awful guernseys. Some of the worst supporters on earth - Kerryl for example. Prediction - top 4.

Geelong - everybody sees another flag for the cats. Not me - I still remember the ill-fated holiday trip to the coast to play the Brisbane Bears. Over confidence will destroy their season - will make the 8 but injuries will make a the difficult year.

Adelaide - will finish in the top two and play in the Grand Final. Likely to win it. Prediction - Premiers.

Port Adelaide - awful song, great suburb.  Loyal Labor voters. Nicole's two step sons to have  a big year. Prediction - top 4.

Essendon - great choice as coach. I think he is learning his trade before he comes home - something I said for the last 27 years. Prediction - will make the 8.

Sydney - will continue to annoy many but not me. Top 4 finish.

West Coast - not to my taste. Due to miss out.

Fremantle - great song. Mathew Pavlich for the Brownlow - best nose in the comp. Prediction - in the 8.

Brisbane - will make the 8.

Collingwood - Malthouse to be the first coach sacked.  Collingwood supporters to say "the umps have had a good game" at least once.

Carlton - what a boring bunch. Judd to pine for the west and head back by round 10.  The last good player was David Rhys Jones.

Melbourne - snooze.

North Melbourne - deep snooze.

Western Bulldogs - some great supporters but on life support. Rod Eade to turn up at Richmond as a volunteer.

Hawthorn - (I had to consult AFL.com t0 see who the other team was!) Will have an awful year after some promise last year. Buddy Franklin to ask for an open clearance. Prediction  -who cares!

Coleman medalist - Matthew Richardson
