Analysis of every teams run here.

I quite like our draw. Fair match up of teams based on our 2011 season. Collingwood twice will be good for us - and one at home! Being an Adelaide boy, two games at AAMI rocks too :D

Run home looks pretty hard though! Collingwood, Cats and the Hawks :/

How'd your club do?

the crows only play 1 of last year's finalsts twice (geelong) and we play gold coast, GWS, and port adelaide all twice

no excuses for us missing the finals next year really

we have gold coast away, bulldogs at home, hawthorn away, gws at home, port at home as the first 5 games of the season, realistically we should be 4-1 after the first 5 rounds, but then the next 5 rounds are sydney away, geelong at home, carlton away, collingwood at home and freo away, so that will be tough. if we can pinch 1 of those and go into halfway at 5-5 i think we would we well placed for a tilt at september

We got a pretty good draw, no excuses for us either.

If North don't make the finals this year with that draw there's something wrong at Arden Street.

Weird that we have both GWS & GC twice, since the AFL said during the year that wasn't going to happen.

Yeah the more I look at your draw the more I love it. Basically a gtd 16 points vs GWS/GCS, should beat Port twice too - but they can be a bit of a bogey team.

Couldn't agree more!!!

Having a horror pre-season with injures didn't help us and if we can get everyone up and running by Round 1, sneaking into the Top 4 isn't out of the question.

I reckon Carlton may struggle to make Top8 as well as Sydney & St. Kilda.

I think the teams on the up will be North, Adl, Freo and probably Ess.

Normally I'd just shoot you down for suggesting the Roos will make top 4 but we did it last year so who knows :lol:
