Barring disaster, North, Essendon and Adelaide will play finals in 2014, I think that's fairly obvious.
North- lost about 5 games under 6 points in 2013. Win 3 of those and they're playing finals. Plus north are building a structure as good as anyone in the league. They have all lines covered and should finish 3rd or 4th in 2014.
Essendon -top 4 team until rd 19 this year until the media pressure became too much to handle. Have shown the footy world that this club is easily capable of finals over the last 3 years. Will finish 5th-8th next year.
Adelaide - were the biggest underachievers of 2013. Finished 2nd in 2012 so obviously have the list good enough to play finals next year. Have the best midfield in the afl and finished the season in style with an 11 goal win in against Melbourne and an amazing 85 point over west coast at subi. This team will play finals next year and their supporters are equally as confident - more so than west coast supporters.
So my question to all of you scribes- who will they replace?
I think Richmond, Port and Carlton.
*disclaimer* All of the above depends on injuries.
