We're all experts, aren't we? My armchair analytical opinions:
Adelaide: No - proven as mentally weak & too many gaps in squad
Brisbane: No - really talented, coming good, but not there yet
Carlton: No - wooden spooning, as per usual
Collingwood: Yes - squad is definitely good enough, maybe better
Essendumb : Yes - potentially, but still flaky enough to fall apart
FREMANTLE: Oh Yes! - genuine forward line BUT RL still in charge
Geelong: No - they'll talk big (again) but too many holes in squad
Gold Coast: No - but small improvement, up to top of bottom 4
GWS: Yes - but reduced squad & dreaded rebuild is coming
Hawthorn: No - a one man team, without the man
Melbourne: Yes - provided their best stay fit, they'll go further
North Melbourne: No - middle of mid-table
Port Adelaide: Yes, but not quite good enough, again
Richmond: Yes - but the game plan has been figured out
St Kilda: No - becoming regular bottom four
Sydney: Yes - but see GWS comments & may already be too late
Wet Toast: Yes - provided Kennedy & Tubby McGovern stay fit
Western Bulldogs: No - won't progress beyond mid-table
