2021 GF:
Richmond v WCE or Port or even out of St.kilda and WB
most likely a richmond v wce gf its a much awaited gf too i feel a richmond v wce gf is the one we have been waiting for.
Premier: richmond making it 4 out of 5 and a 3 peat.
Big improvers are: WB and Freo
GWS will rebound after 2020 and brisbane to sustain their 2020 form but for port to drop off a tad but will make finals.
Big slip from: Geelong (miss finals this time) and Collingwood ( need to rebuild)
Both blues and dees will hover around the mark just in the top 8 or just out most of 2021 but towards the end may just miss. I do think blues are better placed then the pies on making finals and even the dees.
the rest got the swans to come up a bit. GC will stay the same a drop off a tad from essendon.
Bottom 3 hawks crows will jump up 1 spot and north to collect the spoon.
Collingwood will again start well in 2021 but will be struck down with injury again and then drop off come june and fall away to much plus they really need to rebuild too. 2022 will be better for the pies we just need 1 more year i feel.
With richmond i feel we need to wait for the retirements of the likes of dusty cothin lynch etc.... for any drop off from them so thats why ive got them taking out the flag again in 2021.
Collingwood next flag im pencilling in 2023 if all goes well. We are still 3 years away. 2021 re build 2022 start to rise and 2023?

Well there is at least two changes to the final eight from year to year on average; I'm suspecting one will be us out the door

I’d say Collingwood will win in 2025 at the earliest. They have a lot to do to get a squad good and experienced enough to win a flag.

I feel this is on the money. With Collingwood they can be lower if feel also they could end up in 15th or 16th. Their best is 12th but i feel it maybe as low as say 15-17th. At least 18th you get to win a wooden spoon Collingwood dont win anything so they will miss out on the spoon also.
The top 4 is set. Only real doubt is Bulldogs. To me the top 3 are the top 3. Richmond by light years together with Brisbane and West Coast.
The spots 5-8 theres up to 7 teams that can make the bottom 4 of the 8. Gold Coast and maybe Sydney are the only lowly teams as a slim slight chance.
100% sure of missing finals are Collingwood, Essendon,Hawthorn,Crows and North. (pity they were all a powerhouse of the league some time too)
Big improvers are Freo and both Carlton and Melbourne to carry on their rise together with Saints to capitalise on 2020 season.
Bounce back from West Coast and GWS and Port to be there abouts again in that bottom 4 of the final 8.

An Essendon fan page on instagram has us near the bottom 4 next year, which is why they're keen to get out first rounder next year.

Hoping we don't give away our first pick, tank to finish last and get Daics plus the second best player in the land.
That's the smart thing to do.
Essendon will try to out tank us and the Hawks will have a crack too.

Funny that, considering I have Essendon finishing in the bottom 4 next year.

Like Melbourne tanking for Scully and Trengove. And then Watts. And Carlton tanking for Kruezer.
Tanking breeds a losing culture with an acceptance of losing, cheating and not putting in 100%. Clubs that tank, or lose on purpose, are doomed to stay near the bottom of the ladder for years on end.
No thanks.

^ 100% agree.
Would rather do the best we can and we finish where we deserve to finish.
