[JGreezy]

Floppers Hawthorn
Better than expected: Adelaide

I agree with Hawthorn relative to this talk that they're a top 2 side.

 

[zoomba23]

Good: Fremantle (got a weird thing for them but I don't think top 2 is out of the question at all)

Bad: Godees

 

[Heaps of fun]

Floppers: Bulldogs
Whoppers: Fremantle

 

[Passmore]

Melbourne look the most likely floppers to me. Hard to overlook the low hanging fruit in * for this prize though.

Risers: North, of course.

 

[Harvey Manfrenjensenden]

Floppers: Hawks and Cats

Better than expected: North and Fremantle

I've thought for a while that the Hawks could have prematurely peaked this year... let's see how the weight of expectations goes for them. Melbourne I feel people are expecting to be crap next year, so I wouldn't be surprised if they dead cat bounce and overperform for a year or two before they truly collapse. Dons to take an intentional dip as part of a tentative, Dodo-less rebuild in search of talent. The Dogs finally begin to show some wear as well.

I honestly wouldn't blink an eye if Adelaide end up top 4 out of nowhere, same with Freo. Suns will probably begin to put it all together too. And of course, we saw brief glimpses of North at our best this year... I reckon we will see a lot more of that next year. Easy beats no more

Melbourne finished 14th this year. Flopping to 17 isn't as far as you think

Yeah I know where they finished, it was more about flopping to expectation given a lot of people think they’ll bounce back!
