Where would you have them? 

Dogs have an excellent inside mid rotation even without Dunkley. I'd have them second after us. The wings or lack thereof is problematic but the core of their midfield is still excellent.

GWS have what should be one of the better starting trios in the league, with Green, Kelly & Cogs. Finn Callaghan & Lachie Whitfield as wing options too. 

I'd have Dogs #2 & GWS ahead of several teams listed above them on that list.

Alas the game is played on grass & not paper....!

    These articles are subjective and based on lasts years stats and trades. 

    Giants have / had a lot of talent but always fail to deliver.

    Hunter and Dunkley are two massive outs for the dogs, yes they still have Bont, Libba, Macrae and Treloar but losing talent has to hurt. 
     

    Cats are another year older, Danger is 32, Gutherie isn’t a gun. 
     

    Interesting season ahead, only 5/6 clubs with a real chance.

    My top 4 would be Melbourne, Carlton , Brisbane and Dogs.

    Richmond ranked at 5 is ridiculous as I would even have the filth ranked above them.

    • 2xB&Fs, including one in a premiership season

    He'd be, arguably, in the top half dozen players at Melbourne IMHO.

    There’s no arguably about it, no chance, wouldn’t even be top 10.

    Not sure about top half dozen...but Guthrie is a jet. Balanced & skilled, would compliment us really well actually!

    Regardless of where you rate Gutherie, we have arguably the no.1 midfield in comp, we’ve had the no.1 ranked defence over the last 2 seasons. We finished the H & A season last year 2nd after playing some ordinary predictable football in the back half of the season, along with a few injuries. An argument could be made for our depth compared to other top 4 hopefuls. Barring major injuries to a number of players there are simply no excuses this season, none. Top 2 finish is a must.

    If you just go by the center bounce starting four, you could reasonably argue that...

    Gawn, Oliver, Viney, Harmes

    and

    Grundy, Petracca, Brayshaw, Pickett

    ...would both be in the top 10. Neither would be first, but both sets would compete with any other team at a bounce.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Sunday’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
