Premiership Winner;
Arizona Scorpions

Well balanced side, forward lets them down a little with roughy out half the year, but all other lines look pure dominance, I mean just look at that starting midfield

Runner-up;
Calgary Fireflies

Just missing out the top spot, and I know its last years GF rematch, but seriously when you arguably have the 2 best midfielders and ruckman, makes your team very hard to beat. How does he have both Brayshaw and De Goey coming up on his list too :o

Premiership Winner;

Calgary - unless they get an injury or two to the main guns (Rocky,Ablett,Stef Martin) it will be very hard to beat them as Captain and Vice Captain points will be enormous.

Runner-up;

Hawaii - Nicaragua - Roswell

Most Improved Team;

Washington

Biggest Slider;

Los Angeles

Wooden Spooner;

Springfield

With Hibberd being suspended and Masten/S.Selwood out with injury for a few rounds it will be a difficult year.

I see the future being good for the Topes with those players returning.

New clubs for Sinclair,Dixon and Aish should see them improve a lot. Prestia and Petracca returning from injury will help. Johanissen is in for a big year I reckon and Parish is a gun in the making. Salem will improve again this year aswell.

Predicted Top 8;

Calgary
Hawaii
Nicaragua
Roswell
Arizona
El Paso
Washington
Dallas

Might change 6,7,8 ..need to look at teams better first.

Highest Individual Score;

Tom Rockilff 188 (vs Carlton or Essendon)

:'( I moved myself up a place because the vest is no more. I copped more green vests than half this comp put together and lost a few because of it, surely I'll improve at least in scores if not premiership points this year.
I also have enough mids to use as UTIs and to use my M/F as a forward this year. A few extra dpps helps too. New high 1800+??

Not writing the Topes off, just think it will be hard with those 3 out (not sure how long Masten is out for 8 weeks? Selwood 3-4 weeks, Hibberd - season), didn't want to put you last  :( can I change it  :D

Not sure if you realise this, but besides naming your bloke all you did was mention Dallas' draftees.  ;)

Ahh, I'll try again then ;D Petracca, Parish, and the other new guy uummm Dangerfield? I think I've only got 2 up for it, quinella at best.  I reckon Weitering will stand out in a weak Blues D and Mills could win if he gets enough opportunities but Horse will keep him quiet enough. Petracca nominated with 20 kicks, 6 goals, 10 marks, 10 tackles and wins the game after the siren. (Roos complains he doesn't run defensively enough and drops him next round) :P

Pretty sure a team that finished 7th last year at the end of the minor season to finish top which is jumping 6 positions is most improved? I don't see any other team jumping 6 positions
