Prediction 2023 Ladder Prediction Thread

[adammania9]

Brave with the Dees out in straight sets again. They'll be OK

They could switch it on, and I fancy Oliver will return by the first final, but it's a consequence of GWS being a bit of a juggernaut right now I reckon. They were ultra gallant in their 2018, '19 and '21 finals series and I think they will be again. Melbourne 2021-23 remind me a lot of Collingwood 2010-12.

It's been a crazy year! I can't remember the last time it was this uncertain, so many teams are still in the race for top 8.

		W	L	D	%
1.	Collingwood	20	3	0	134.0%
2.	Port Adelaide	18	5	0	112.1%
3.	Melbourne	16	7	0	125.6%
4.	Brisbane Lions	16	7	0	124.5%
5.	Western Bulldogs	14	9	0	111.6%

17.	North Melbourne	2	21	0	66.5%
18.	West Coast	2	21	0	52.4%

Rough on Essendon to only increase their percentage by .6% with West Coast and North Melbourne to come in the next fortnight


The last round will be ridiculous if its this close.

Brisbane vs St Kilda
Carlton vs GWS
Essendon vs Collingwood
Geelong vs Bulldogs
Sydney vs Melbourne
Port vs Richmond

12 of the current top 13 teams playing each other.

Desperate contenders vying for a home final, top 4, top 8.
Non desperate locks not really trying to get injured and fine tuning before a week off.

 

[timokane]

Who thinks Pies have peaked to early and now its down hill from here.

And they make top 4 but same as 2022 lose week 1 of finals and win the semi and lose again in a prelim.

They arent winning all that well.

My bolter from here is carlton and gws.

 

[timokane]

My finals week 1 lines ups are:

Elims are:

carlton v dogs mcg
geelong/gws v essendon mcg/giants stadium

qualify finals:

collingwood v melbourne mcg
brisbane v port gabba

semi finals:

melbourne v carlton
port v either cats or gws

prelim:
collngwood v port
brisbane v melbourne

gf:

collingwood v brisbane

 

[timokane]

would not surprise me that carlton make it to a prelim

 

[00Stinger]

Nice melt

but accurate

Collingwood still the favourite imo, but other teams would be energised with how Carlton played them.

Lock in

Pies
Dees
Lions
Port
Dogs

leaving 3 spots

Likely Carlton

Then GWS, Cats, Adelaide, Saints and Sydney

Think GWS are almost locks now. I reckon the winner of Carlton vs St Kilda will make it and the loser will miss.

 

[Angus Young]

Hope it is

pies
melbourne
lions
port
carlton
dogs
cats
gws

they are the best 8 teams along with Adelaide and will be awesome finals series.

 

[footy75]

yep the fight for the last 3 places is awesome

tigers gone now

down to 6 teams for 3 spots

with so many teams still alive hasn´t been a finish like it for some time

Can't see us having statistically our worst ever season with a 13th place finish. 8th-10th imo.

I think it's safe to say that Geelong will miss the 8 which is a massive drop from last year.
I'm not sure what went wrong, maybe they're too old now or Chris Scott

Someone a bit upset at the thrashing handed out by the Bulldogs? Injury-ravaged Geelong have still been able to account for Melbourne, Bulldogs (twice), Essendon (twice). Sides Richmond have gone 0-5 against this season, the nail in the coffin for finals chances.

We'll see what happens tomorrow but Richmond are running out of games to jump ahead.

It's a big fall to go from flag favourites to not making the finals. Something has gone awry down there.
I'm not sure the last time that has happened.

Not sure. Richmond in 2021 were pretty awful the year after winning the grand final. And so-so the next year. And poor again the year after.

We'll see if Geelong will do worse than that.

could see the crows doing that, until they meet the pies.

 

[freddy mercury]

Massive games today




If GWS win this, it will be hard to pick them to miss the 8
Adelaide, GCS is a massive game, genuine 8 point game.
Essendon win and results go their way, they will be 9th


A draw between GCS and ADE will be great!
