Very tough this year. Don't think there are many standout teams. Fairly even around the top 8-10.

West coast
Port
Hawthorn
Geelong
Fremantle
Collingwood
Sydney
Gws

North
Richmond
Crows
Bulldogs
Gold Coast
Brisbane
Melbourne
St kilda
Essendon
Carlton

Any of north, Richmond, crows, doggies, Gold Coast can make finals. North probably a bit too old and tough draws for a young crows and doggies side will make it harder. Tigers can easily finish in the 8 and so can Gold Coast if they don't get injuries.
Ports draw is easy. They should make top 4 comfortably.

Coleman: Cameron
Brownlow: Dangerfield/Hannebery/Gray top 3.
Hawks won't win this years gf imo. Any of the top 6 I've predicted can easily win.

2 weeks! So keen.

Someone typed up a list on their phone, and added some numbers.

There's no source for the info, no name attributed, no data to check.

It's a Barossa Pearl post.

Have to feel for Richmond supporters after that blatant poor attempt at a disguise of Collingwood ass kissing by umpires which resulted in a complete joke of a result. I'm not just talking near the end, but the game in general. In some sports, the umps wear black and white stripes, time for AFL to come clean and do similar and just admit what needs to be done. :|

Was great to see the Crows dominate a bottom 8 team yesterday.
If we want to play Finals again we need to beat these types of teams all season

Most fans in the league? If that was the case, AO would be a sell out every week with many others crying out for a bigger stadium.

If they do it every week for the rest of the year, and can demonstrate doing if during a poor season, I might be convinced

Do the Bombers ever sell out a game that isn't Anzac Day?

Maybe occasionally but I'm not saying we have the biggest support either.

I think there's a mistake about who is claiming to be the biggest.
