For what its worth, my ladder is:
1   Gold Coast
2   Brisbane
3   GWS
4   Western Bulldogs
5   Sydney
6   Hawthorn
7   Adelaide
8   Collingwood
9   St Kilda
10   Geelong
11   Fremantle
12   Carlton
13   Port Adelaide
14   Essendon
15   Melbourne
16   North Melbourne
17   Richmond
18   West Coast
Id have Fremantle and Geelong in the eight with Collingwood and the WB's just missing...Pies are doing a midfield and forward line rebuild plus have a injury prone backline and the Dogs while having a talented list suffer with Beveridge trying to be over inventive.
12th will see us a with a new coach and rebuild too imho..

Apart from their defence which leaks alot, I rate the Bullies and if Darcy gets up ad going, look out.
Ditto Freo, midfield is scary good and probably warrants a spot as you say.
Gee-long will slide a little I reckon.
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time
2025-Carlton can win the 2025 AFL Premiership

Handbaggers will always be in and about given they have the experience and are well managed through the season, they just need to find a way to get the big names into a GF in a fresh state, at the moment they keep burning them in Prelims or early finals.

Having said that, I heard that Scott has gone MiA, or LoA, whatever it is it could be a sign he grows weary.

Fantasy rankings had Dogs with numbers....
1, 2, 3 and 6th best players in the league.

Sure, its fantasy, but if that doesn't equal top 8 certainties, thats a huge fail.

I like Darcy's boy in terms of his attack on the footy, the aggression he shows, but AFL is full of big bodies and eventually that style of play is going to take it's toll and that could be in Rnd 1 or in years from now, but it'll happen.

8 goals in a practice match. He will do plenty of damage now.

Scott has been given extra leave because he is coaching the Vic side. Good management, no issues.
