Premiers- Geelong
Wooden Spoon- Richmond
Brownlow- Joel Corey
Coleman - Brendon Fevola
Rising Star- Nathan Djerrkura
Norm Smith- Brad Ottens
Top 8 -
1- Geelong
2- Collingwood
3- St.Kilda (injuries permitting)

The main reason I think Corey will have a great season is because opposition teams will most likely be focussed more on Gaz or Bartel, allowing Smithy to fly under the radar a bit.

[GFCats07]

Carji Medal - Andrew Mackie

Thats what i like to see.
I think mackie will be a big improver for 2008.
.. Though he has struggled a little bit at pre-season training but that cant say anything for what he will be like through the season.

He is young, fit and ready to become a player that could become a bartel, scarlett or mooney with time and training. Suggestions and thoughts have come across that he can become an AA next year?

He is personally my favourite player for the way he strides to achieve more (and i have a like for him as he is an Adelaide boy!)

BRING ON 2008.
KEEPING THE LID ON!
