Lets predict what Doug will predict

Thought I'd throw in somthing a little bit different.

Instead of making our own predictions lets see who can predict what order Doug Robertson will predict the ladder to finish like in his annual series of club articles that come out in March.

Normally he brackets clubs 1-3(or top 3), 4-6 and 7-9(or bottom 3).

I think he will go like this:

TOP 3 (in no particular order)

Centrals
North
Port

MIDDLE 3 (in no particular order)

Eagles
Sturt
Norwood

BOTTOM 3 (in no particular order)

Glenelg
South
West

Yeah i would have to go with that, possibly swapping Eagles and Port.

I really struggle to categorise the team into top 3, middle 3 and bottom 3 as IMHO the different between the top3 and 4th will only be a bit of luck with injuries, etc.
Teams 5 -8 could finish in any order too depending on which way the coin comes down.

Top 4 (not in specific order) : Central, Port, North, Eagles

Next 4 (not in specific order) : Sturt, Norwood, West, South

Next 1 (not in specific order): Glenelg, Glenelg, Glenelg, Glenelg

I'm usually crap at predictions though, I think tipped South for the Top 3 in 2004, luckily I learnt my lesson and didn't do that again.

You should have asked me prior to the Darwin trip as I could have got a real good indication on what he'd be predicting!
Nice bloke too. :wink:
