They can definitely challenge for the top four this season, but they won't win the premiership. Another year with Clark leading the ruck, and with Leuenberger likely coming back into the 22, Fev having his first season at the lions and with the youngsters getting a full year under their belt, in 2011 you never know......

I am tipping the Lions to finish 6th. And go out at the Semi Finals.

I don't see them getting near the premiership or top 4.

Sheedy was a fan of topping a team up with middle aged often rejected players from other clubs, no wonder he thinks the lions will win the flag. They wont.

Lions will give it a crack, but the flag is a big call by Sheeds.
I can't see them beating Geelong, Western Bulldogs and co. to the flag this year.

Thy wont win premiership.

Look at the teams who have won premierships recently.

Lions dont have a spread of golakickers. You cant expect Fev and Brown to kick 12-13 goals a week
Midfield is good but not brilliant (Sheedy said Fevola would be getting better service from Lions midfield than blues midfield, what planet is he on)

Back line still has questions marks for me. Can Merrett and Patfull hold down the big forwards week in, week out. Macdonald is a big loss from this department

I'm predicting us to be in the top 4.

St Kilda
Western Bulldogs
Geelong
Brisbane

and will see where it takes us from there

Neil I am lost, the Lions midfield is much better then yours is.

Luke Power, Josh Drummond, Simon Black and Daniel rich are probably the best kickers in the game with Goddard and Shannon Hurn. i think they will find fev just fine

At the moment
Judd is better than black (black is a champ though)
I'd prefer murphy over power
And Gibbs is better than rich (right at this moment)
I know which starting midfield I'd prefer

They are both similar and Fev is still going to receive great service from the Lions midfield, it wont make that much of a difference.

Also i hate comparing players individually in a team sport, it just never works for me.

Yeah Judd's good but Murphy and Gibbs have a deadly kick moving forward. Gibbs found Fev so much last year.

Gibbs and Murphy are early favourites for Brownlow apparently?
