| What do you think our chances are of winning the 2024 premiership? |

| Pretty good – we should finish top 4 and still be in contention on preliminary final weekend, but hard to know from there |

| Unsure – new season, everyone starts from scratch, and we're just one of many teams that can win it |

| Not so good – expecting a premiership hangover and/or for other teams to pass us by |

Actually, we're looking an underlying trend here that has developed over the last few weeks,
since our disastrous first 3 rounds. Always good to be trending up ↑
Compared to other teams we stand out. And this is necessary to get to top 4 and play finals.

This season so far appears to be wide open.
Only clear stand out is the swans.
If it continues like this I would not be surprised to see a side outside the top 4 win it.

I reckon we are down to 4 contenders…..
Sydney, Giants, Pies, Demons.

Swans are the standouts at the moment, but we're right in this.
Geelong and GWS are in a slump now. Jury is still out on Essendon, and Melbourne and Port are thereabouts.

No, the Giants are gone now. Need to watch out for Brisbane. They slaughtered the Tigers tonight (but who doesn't) and have a very easy draw coming up. So perhaps it's Brisbane in for the Giants. The rest I agree with. |

No, I think you're writing GWS off too quickly.
They're clearly in a slump, but I think they'll rebound later in the year.

The Giants will get their mojo back….remember last year. Yes Brisbane looks good but coming from a long way back and have to play most of the top 8, so the damage may be done.
Cats have issues with Hawkins, Port has been given a blue print to the comp on how to deal with Stewart which is causing all sorts of issues with their back half. Dangerfield back will help but not sure about them.
Can’t trust Port to win a final at the MCG. Essendon while they have a decent coach and are on the improve are still ranked outside the best 8 for both attack and defence in 2024 plus they haven’t won a final for nearly 20 years.
Carlton well if you stop either Walsh or Cripps there is not much to backup. Cerra seems injury prone now.

Melbourne lost. Port scraped through against Hawthorn.
Think there's an argument we're the next best side after Sydney at this moment in time.

Thinking deep thoughts today and yes there are 16 sides who should well consider their 2025 plans
The other two. Swans & Pies consider how they will celebrate GF day 2024
