Gotta love the poll facility.
Place your votes here. I know its ridiculous asking at this time of the off season but I had to test out the poll on something.
And remember vote with ya heads not ya hearts!

In alpha order so I can't be acused of bias.

No matter how you came up with the order i reckon you got Westies in the right spot

(West fans i'm just having a bit of fun, you may very well improve dramatically next season for all i know)

Whoops, me bad, West comes before Wood.
Ah well, too late now.

North....im going for the kiss of death all summer..er.winter long

ha ha I told CA I'm pissed how everyone is picking North to win the flag next year. It means if North win everyone says "I told you so" and if they lose its "bloody chokers!".

Not that I can talk as I've been picking the Dogs for the last 5 years!

My preseason favourite would be Norfs after the steady season in all grades this year, I hope I am completely off track and the Tiges pounce to the top of the ladder. I think Centrals will start slipping down the rungs of the ladder really soon hopefully.

North Adelaide.

They've been improving every year and had high hopes (well derr) for this one, and i believe next years their year, got the right spread of players and some more finals experience under their belt, and not to mention the two Jarmans now at the reign.

The Dogs to still make the finals, and possibley a Roosters vs. Dogs grand final. Though god i hope Sturt stay up there.

Ha ha, someone actually voted for Glenelg*

Eagles for me as I think it's their turn.

This site appears to be The Roost 2.

North will definitly go close with the list that they will have next year. But im not going to write of the dogs.

I've said it all along...North's midfield still needs improving to challenge Port, Eagles or Centrals.

Won't argue with needing to improve to challenge the Eagles or Central but Port? We din't have too many problems (even while we were undermanned) at Alberton. Everyone is entitled to their own views though.

I picked Port to win the flag in 2006.

Reasons why:

Centrals will brought back to the pack somewhat with their departures.
Eagles perhaps losing a few players (Stokes, Ellis, O'Hara).
North perhaps needing a bit longer to gel their recruits together.

Port seem to be able to find "high quality" recruits too.

Pains me to say all this.

Fair enough TB but i really hope you are way off the mark. Plenty of valid points though.

5th spot is up for grabs...

Most likely Sturt's spot.

U IDIOT!
Despite Centrals lossing 'all their stars' we will still smash port in every game we play them next year. Ports effort against us in the 2nd semi was a disgrace and even though they resorted to mongrel tactics we still flogged the wharfie bastards!

Everyone fails to realise that it is Centrals that are the only team able to find 'high quality' recruits; these are defined as players who stick with the club (Hopwood, Gowansx2, Bello, Hay, Arnott, Stevens, Ford etc) for more then 1 year. Every other team that recruits has players come and go each year and these players are useless in a team being able to gel together. Despite the massive loss of players in 2002 we were able to win the next 3 flags; we can easily do it again!

Port were so uncompetitive against us that day, Timmy G will need a miracle to beat us!
