Prediction Ladder Predictor after round 6.

[BangyBangy]

Anyone feel like playing along?

So, we're in the lull between codes and I'm bored. Rather than wait for more content to be delivered, we could make a little ourselves.

I've gone with the easier version of just the first quarter of the season, nothing too time consuming.

Looking through the fixture for the first six rounds my takeaways are, I reckon we'll drop at least one, Round two against Sydney is the toughest game for mine.

North have a pretty friendly draw, snag wins against West Coast (away), Essendon, Carlton, & Port (home), and Richmond, and they'll be right up the pointy end. For a while anyways lol.

St Kilda don't have the friendliest start to the year. If they're in the eight they'll have deserved it.

I think West Coast, Essendon & Melbourne will all be dumpster fires, and I can't see a loss for Gold Coast in the first six weeks.

Sorry, going to have to ban you. I see that loss there, you're out of here.

If you get that any better than 40% right I'll label you a genius BB.

This might be an idea for a badge.

North???

North???

WTF NORTH???

 

[Elixuh]

I forgot to stop and did 7 rounds. But I also have Norf in the top 8 so far. They have very winnable start to the season.

GCS should also be up there.

I think the Hawks will struggle.

 

[DERRINALPHIL]

North???

North???

WTF NORTH???

I have North as my second team and I cannot see North winning any more than one game in that lot.

West Coast and Richmond are certainly in contention, plus there's always laughter in the Carlton stand

North???

North???

Lol, I don't think it's too far fetched actually.

Port first up. They're kinda an unknown, but generally pretty flaky in Melbourne. If in doubt, tip the home team in round one. Then West Coast in Perth, hardly mission impossible.

My gut tells me Essendon is dysfunction central, Ridley, Merrett & Draper all wanted out.

Carlton has had the wood on North for a while (I guess most teams have), but they too are in an interesting hard to predict phase.

Brisbane will pose a sterner test

Then Richmond, a similar club in terms of rebuild, who should be a couple of years behind them development wise.

But yes, when North are 0-6 please do not hesitate to rub this post in my face haha.

The Percentage alone should win us the Premiership imo.

May as well just hand it to Dalions now lol

Not that I am complaining, every year you win the tipping comp we win the flag

Guess I’m in the minority in not expecting a jump from North.

Neither am I but the teams they’re playing in the first 6 aren’t very good. Some will be a coin flip but if north aren’t winning some of these games then what’re they doing.

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Same for me. They play West Coast, Carlton, Essendon and Richmond in those first 6 and they should be winning at least 3 of those games IMO. Doesn't mean I think they'll make the finals though. FWIW I have them losing to West Coast away but beating Port at home.

Their defensive 7 are still the worst in the competition. Their midfield is still young and still somewhat dysfunctional, and their forward line is not much better, being over reliant on Larky.

I’d have West Coast on slightly behind them.

Do a ladder Briz. Curious to see where you have them compared to West Coast, Melbourne, Essendon, Richmond, Carlton & Port after six rounds.

I certainly don't think they'll make the top 10 by seasons end, but I don't think any of the other sides listed above will either.

the afl have gifted them the fixture of a lifetime.

they need them to somewhat improve this year because if clucko becomes untenable the joint will basically be at the point where the afl is forced to take over and run the entire club to reset it.

Do you have a link to one?

It’s something I’ve never gone near in the past (same with SuperCoach, etc). I like seeing my family too much to be consumed by fantasy football.

I'd try and avoid the undefeated top spot in the ladder - hasn't ended well recently.
