Well here is mine for 2023 AFL premiership and gf teams.
Collingwood v Sydney swans.
Winner: Collingwood by 26 points MCG attendance 100,025
Ok ok ok ok.
Always talking down the Pies of course you all do.
But i think 2023 The Pies have done the apprenticeship thing and a building and developing into a premiership team.
Like been groomed into a flag winning team.
Collingwood fix up polish and the finish for goals they win most weeks.
I just think why not.
2022 learning 2023 the development stage. Flag windows open a jar. And its on the up side of it opening as well.
They really arent far away and just need to chalk up matches in the kids all the while having pendles and howe and sidy there.
Good at least 1 -2 years upcoming.
I feel this decade will see Collingwood rise to the top.
Still flying under the radar and the experts dont see us winning but that a good thing we are always written off.
As with the swans they cant handle mcg on those big days the ground doesnt suit them but they love postage stamp SCG.
Ok ok i know what about the Cats as they are the current premiers i just cant see them winning 2 in a row.
Still make say semi final or a prelim. Just cant see them in another GF.
Both Pies and Swans have more to improve on more so Pies.
In the other teams i have Brisbane and Blues are improvers in 2023. Both times running out for both Brisbane and Blues. Now is the time.
Dees all depends on Grundy and Gawn experiment if it works top 4 if not spots 5-8 are theirs of if it really doesnt work then miss finals. Would be season over if either one has an ACL in the early rounds they just dont have a plan B Melbourne.
Tigers yes for the h and a matches but i just dont think they have that next level of improvement left in them. Ok i like Taranto ok cool but again they are topping up and its out of hope then anything. Aging a bit the tigers too. Will feature in the finals for sure ok.
Freo is unknowen.
The rest are hit and miss.
Spoons hawks or west coasts.
