Sturt flag favourites for this year

[spell_check]

Firstly, I think we are seeing the end of an era ...... for 2008 at least I put both Sturt and the Bays ahead of them.

Secondly, what more do the Bays have to do to be favourites? Neither Sturt or the Doggies have been able to beat them this year.

South have, that's what sets them apart.

Nah, all very close, but Sturt gets my vote.

[NO-MERCY]

I'd rather go in as underdogs Hondo71.

Whilst I didn't say it at the time but our last nine games have arguably demonstrated that South didn't beat us that game - we beat ourselves with our sh!thouse attitude on the game. We thought we just had to rock up to get the points and it didn't happen. Mark said a few home truths post game and thankfully we left that attitude behind in the visitors changerooms on March 31.

Perhaps get a bit more finals experience? Thus far Sturt and the Bays have done about as well as each other - in which case Sturt deserves favouritism, due to a little more experience with playing in September. I wouldn't write Centrals off yet either, they'll lift a cog come September.

how so? we beat them in a FINAL!

i told you that after the match that we were not 'switched on' & you had a friendly go at me, now you agree when it is obvious

ps, i read the first line

ps again, also perhaps that loss has helped with all the games since ?!!

[Harry the Horse]

Oh, yes ... Sturt red hot favourites.
Absolute certainties .... no-one can get near them.
Unbackable ... like 1978.

LOL

We like having friendly goes at each other don't we Bayman....

Despite my post above I still think South deserve some credit for how they played in Rd 1 too, even though as you said we weren't switched on.

No no no no no.

Blues overwhelming favourites. Too many talented and finals-experienced players will see them listed as short priced favourites on Grand Final day. The Bays will have their work cut out in getting past the perennial finals champs Central District on Preliminary Final day.

I laughed last year when Peter etc were carrying on about "baby blues" hmmm. Nelson, Sheedy, Whiteman, Wicks, Feast, Chambers, and the addition of Perrie and McGlone = one of the most experienced sides in the comp!

Juicy odds on North if they can "un-implode" i reckon they can still give it a big shake, very talented list.

even taking away the fact I want to put the mockers on the bays , they truly are the team to beat and as much as you dont like is sudo, they are huge favs for the flag. if I was in town, id enjoy watching their style of play.

while yes we do have finals experience, which team went further last year to gain a little of that experience eh?

your kidding yourselves if you think its all going to come down to 'finals experience' even a little lol.

What's a preliminary final?

[Bluedemon]

glenelg are the odds on favourites to win the premiership which they havent done since 1986. it is between sturt and centrals, and a dark horse being north to be the runner-up.

[doggies4eva]

Hmm $3.50 for the dogs in a 3 horse race. Quite attractive really.

Looks like will have to wait till next week to us my $50 free bet. once the blues lose this week will be out to $3.50 slighly beter value

[CUTTERMAN]

Let's all fight not to be the favourites heh! What has footy come to?

[peterg]

One of three favourites at this stage. I think Glenelg and Central are more likely to be contesting the GF.

Here here .. WWTFC just making up the numbers .. Sturt will be one of the other two, who won't be West or Port ...
