It's pretty funny seeing each different opinion of team's supporters being thrown around, completely inflated of ones own worth. Positivity around not ending up last is great.
A way I'd look at this to as unbiased as possible (as a huge saints fan) is if I had to put a large sum of money on the wooden spooner I'd have saints there out of the three. It's all down to speculation of your teams worth and what they've proven so far. Although saints were demolished with injuries last year I don't see us improving as quick as the two other teams - this is perfectly fine for me.
There's too many question marks around the improvement rate of our new kids. Sure billings, acres, mccartin, Goddard, Dunstan etc could possibly have a break out season, the chances of all of them is extremely rare.
Our mid field is at this stage less then average and our forward line is completely unproven if we're throwing out any of the mix of lee/mccartin/membrey.
That being said we're a few years behind in our rebuild, I think the potential of the kids we have coming could be extremely good in years to come. It's a good sign that there's no clear spooner like previous years. It's good for the comp.
A safe bet: dogs -> melb -> saints. -> (Carlton )
