Hawthorn. They often have both Gunston and Roughead kick 5 each, and Breust often grabs himself a good few as well.

Sydney often have one of Franklin and Tippett get off the chain with 5 or 6 and the other has a quiet one. Then they rely on midfielders like Parker, Jack, McGlynn and Hannebery for the other goals.

How even the Hawk's goal spread is amazing
 
Hawthorn by so far it isn't funny. They lose the the best forward in the AFL and it's offset by Bruest and Gunston stepping up. Rioli barely got on the field this year too.
And to think that I got into quite a few arguments on here at the end of 2013 with people saying that we wouldn't be able to cover Franklin or find his 60 goals.
 
Definitely the hawks, they have the most depth in their forward line.

Hawks Just. But you also have to take into account that Parker plays 60%+ midfield unlike any of those hawks players. Rioli has barely played and may not even play this week, a comparison to parker would be to include isaac smith who has kicked 24 goals in 23 games which makes it 1.78.
 
It was always gonna be between Hawthorn and Sydney.

Hawthorn was always gonna come out on top here though. Our goal spread is just about the best the AFL have ever seen. The amount of times we got over ten goal scorers a game. When you top 3 Forwards are scoring 170 a year between them, It is obvious that you have the best forward line in the comp.
