My gut feeling tells me there is still some unexpected results yet to occur with how tight the ladder is and the teams that are drawn to play each other in these last 4 rounds. I’ve been looking at the ladder predictor myself and I can still find quite a few variations in not just the top 4 but also positions 5 to 8 as well.
I think it will come down to the teams who have the least amount of injuries and consistency of the squad who have played together as well in these last 4 weeks. (To speak about my team for a moment - Brisbane’s injury run has been amazing this year. Touch wood! And the younger players have continued to get better as the year has gone on. Plus having some very handy mature players has definitely helped too)
Collingwood and GWS seem to keep losing players at the wrong time of year as well. On the flip side Richmond are getting players back too at the right time of the year (handy isn’t it? Lol) WCE seem to be travelling ok too and Geelong might show up in September? Their record since 2011 has been patchy.
Might be a case this year where positions 1 to 5 are all pretty even chances for the flag.
