Suspect my ladder prediction was the one that had the Saints in the top 8 (I've got them in 5th place). Take solace in the fact my 2023 Ladder Prediction was the most accurate of all predictions shared in the 2023 thread.
Add the fact Ross has never coached a team that hasn't finished top 4 in his second year at the helm.

Do you mind posting your 2023 ladder prediction again. I’m genuinely interested.

Most think we're a bottom 4 or bottom 2 team.
The good news is what they think has no bearing on how your team will do.

Pretty good, top half was close but bottom half was a little wonky. Underrating Carlton, Richmond and GWS a lot. Do you reckon Richmond are 17th this year?

All there in black and white in the 2023 Ladder Position thread, based on position differential for all 18 teams.That's another false claim
Noone was able to produce an example that bettered my prediction, and recall you in there at the time unsuccessfully diverting from fact.
So, go back to the thread and find a ladder prediction that had a lesser position differential but team and prove me wrong.
Put up, or shut up.
Going for something a little bit different...

You did a spreadsheet
And then went searching for my predictions, compared them to yours in another spreadsheet and your own data/results indicated I was closer to the mark
Funniest stuff ever
But you are correct, this is 2024
Yeah. Of course I would be claiming I had the closest prediction if I produced a spreadsheet that had your prediction closer than mine.You did a spreadsheet

Of course....
First post on this pages, if you need reminding:
Prediction - 2023 Ladder Prediction Thread
Unbelievable dick measuring competition over who’s ladder prediction was the best. Would read again.
www.bigfooty.com
And you didn't even do a Ladder Prediction. You provided 'clusters' of teams, with Brisbane being the 'big drifter' and threatening me to bookmark your post about Collingwood not making the top 4!

Hmmm must not have been good then since you don’t want to give it.
Meh, I'm not getting my hopes up. I'm expecting a similar result to 2012 for us. Flying at the start of the year, flag favourites, then by round 4 or so, the injuries creep in and ruin our season. Hope I'm wrong obviously, but I think this team is just too injury prone to be a top 4 side

This is refreshing after seeing so many ladders, that are basically identical to last years ladder, just with the posters team higher up the ladder

Jesus christ.
And they call Victoria the Education state.
I didn't realise 14 wins was worse than 13 wins.
You've made an interesting list there.
Would you change any of it since a few teams have had players pick up niggling injuries, or did you kinda factor that in?
To me, on paper teams like Geelong and Richmond should both be back around the 6-10 mark, but they seem to rely on fewer top line players that if they get injured likely means their season gets sunk.

hard to predict the whole ladder, although i predict one of the 2023 grand finalist might miss the 8 (premiership or almost premiership) hangover. Time will tell which one it is.

This is the best one i've seen.
Soo many here usually just mix the top 8 around slightly and make no changes which never happens.
Normally you have to factor in the guaranteed statistical likelihood that every single year:
2 teams from the previous years top 8 fall out to the bottom 10
2 teams take their place in the 8 with 1 of those teams jumping into top 4 contention from the bottom 10.
Injuries, form and especially strength of schedule factor into this.
He hasn't exactly done this but he's almost done it with the Swans being a fringe Finals team in 2023 making the jump.
I'd swap Crows to 3 and Swans to 6 to accommodate but otherwise nailed it.
