Opinion Who wins the Premiership? (Updated poll - Updated for Prelims))

[PAFC_1870]

If any non Victorian team gets a lopsided home game count put your money on them

Looking at any of GWS, BRIS, PORT or WCE

I'm expecting Vic teams to struggle big.

 

[Rickee]

Surprised at the lack of excitement around St Kilda. 5-2, in fourth position and playing some of the most attractive football in the comp (highest score two weeks running). If we beat Adelaide and Freo as we should, a finals spot will be extremely likely.

I'm not saying we are going to win the Flag, but at this stage, we should at least be in the conversation.

 

[Major Colvin]

Goes without saying this is an odd year - and there's still so many variable to play out. Assuming the season actually reaches a conclusion, whichever teams make the finals have got to be a better chance than previous year (without the prospect of home ground advantage etc). At this very early stage I think Brisbane look good but there's so much to unfold I couldnt discount over half the teams this year (I would discount melbourne and Adelaide for sure)

 

[HaroLad]

Still don't rate Brisbane, haven't seen them getting it done against the big boys in any tough matches yet.

GWS for mine.

Since returning from the shut down your team has defeated WCE, Adelaide & Freo (all looking like bottom 4 teams at the moment). Maybe defeat a contender before suggesting that Port are in flag contention.

Richmond

 

[Bald]

I'm not sure home state advantage really applies considering Brisbane lost both finals at the Gabba last year.

 

[STFU Donnie]

The way things have gone I seriously don’t think top 4 is relevant - I think whoever brings a month or so of momentum into the finals will carry on and win it whether they’re a side who has to win 3 games or a side who has to win 4

The way things have gone I seriously don't give a sh-t.

 

[Dazzler9]

Would love to see WCE get some unearned home finals against hubbing Vic teams and right the wrongs of the 90s.

Is it possible we get a knockout final 8 finals this year? All finalists in one hub for 3 weekends max?

Maybe support a team that isn't full of pea-hearts making excuses about it before commenting,,,

2 Premiers in 3 season--- if that's a team "full of pea-hearts", what does that make the rest of the competition?

 

[Bazza97]

Would be happy to see either Brisbane or GWS to win.

Have you been in a secret hub somewhere winning games we don't know about?

 

[Carringbush2010]

I tipped collingwood.

Not now I bet.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Think Corona will win it this year.

 

[BRAB]

Once finals time rolls around I'd still have Richmond as favourites to win it assuming they don't have too many injuries.


Their gamestyle still holds up in finals. Blew us out of the water last year.

 

[smasha]

Heart Richmond.

At this stage Giants Lions grand final but Doggies and Bombers darkhorses.

Suns hopefully keep up their form from the first games.

 

[TheEnsign]

Hopefully GWS or Gold Coast. Not a fan of either, but AFL house will find ways to keep their finger on the scale until there's an expansion club premiership. This year is a write off anyway so it's better than any other for a Giants or Suns flag.

No one cares about the past.

Team is full of people making excuses.

 

[sprockets]

Team is full of people making excuses.

Your last win was in the past.

 

[Horts]

Absolute lottery.

Will be interested to see the finals model if we get there.

Due to the giant asterix that's going to be next this one, I'm happy the Swans are no chance.

Gold Coast would be good to see.

 

[Pessimistic]

It’s completely open

 

[BigPond101]

I kind of hope Essendon win it Stringer is my fav player. It would be disappointing if The Dockers won their first flag in these circumstances

 

[Pacman82]

GWS for mine.

Hmmm yeah nah, who are these big boys you speak of? Only team the Lions have been unable to beat in the past 12 months are Richmond, in fact I was at the Gabba Rd22 when the Lions got it done against Geelong a tough one..

Who has Brisbane beaten away from home in the past 2 years?
