I really think teams who lack depth in their squads will struggle!!
Look at teams like Sydney and Qld who have strong starting 11 but young kids who are unproven at this level. Scum are very young and if injuries set in good bye! Perth and Wellington have improved squads but wont get through the season week to week.
I really think Adelaide, Melbourne and CCM have the depth of squad and have all positions covered!
They will finish top 3

Yeah I agree Bulldog, I think Welly will be top 4 though.
Unless they win the PSC and invoke the curse of course...
Right razorback ;D

I'm not convinced about Well just yet. Although it could be my bias against having foreign teams in the H Australian L.

It was Teddy Bear who was on about "the curse" ss.

And re Wellington......they will be much improved I think and very hard to beat at home but I think the constant travel factor may affect their away form.

Not wooden spoon challengers but finals.....not convinced. :-\

*Wryly polishing his buttons*
Ahhh, I think you need to move around to the right my good man...
Teddy was pro curse... razor firmly against.
Hence my post... Its about "perspective' I think Razor put it in a later post...
In this case being, that I think if you take a step to the right you'll see Razors tusks firmly embedded in Teddy's ass...  ;D

From razor... (To Teddy)
"Absolutely Ridiculous. 3 seasons in not a jinx, The Boston Red Sox not winning a game of baseball against the New York Yankees for 70 years because they traded Babe Ruth to them is a jinx."

just a snippit for validation...

My wee brain just exploded!!!

Ahahahahaaaaa lol, I thought the toffee nose approach would be funnier...
But not a particularly great read now I read it back lol!

I thought it might be fun to re-visit this now we're a third of the way through the season and see whether anyone want to change their original tips.

My original tips on 13 July was (I copied straight from my post):
1. Tards
2. Mariners (with minimal injuries. I'm worried about our depth, especially at the back.)
3. Adelaide
4. Flying circus (hoping they finish second last behind scum)
5. Queensland
6. Scum
7. Sheep shaggers
8. Glory.

Now I'd go:
1. Tards
2 Adelaide
3. Us
4. Choppers
5. Roar
6. Scum
7. Sheep
8. Glory

 

[Bex]

1. Mariners

2. I don't care
3. and so on

My tip remains unchanged.

Glad I didn't make a list though; I certainly wouldn't have picked the Nix as second last.
