I think Collingwood only remain contenders while they have a short injury list, chances of that happening arent great with such an old list
They have 3 they cant afford to lose, Mihocek, McStay and Cameron, any of them get wiped for an extended period, its season over
Bulldogs the hardest to get a read on, even more so now with Darcy out, you suspect Naughton wont be able to carry them on his own, does Bont play above 50% fwd from here on? Given he maybe lacking some fitness it might be the right move.
Brisbane look like a team just waiting for finals and only doing the bare minimum. The team to beat.
Port will make the 8 if Butters stays fit
