SuperFooty gives an insight into what the 2013 AFL season could hold

THE NAB Cup is just 43 days away and we're into the New Year. Time to shelve the countdowns and look to the future as we make 12 bold predictions about the 2013 AFL season.


Tiger Time

FINALLY, the wait is over. Richmond’s long-suffering army of fans will see September action this year. The signatures of Troy Chaplin and Chris Knights, the natural progression of their throng of talented youth and the return of Ty Vickery and a fair fixture means there are no excuses this year. Richmond threw away its top-eight hopes with a trio of consecutive last-gasp defeats last year and botched several chances early to topple finals-bound sides. Maturity should eradicate such brain fades and there will be enough chances to post the 13 wins needed to play in September.

[Mr Magic]

Perhaps a couple of years off a flag but this squad should make the 8.

[WilliamPowell]

Well done HUN 

Build em up and then after a loss go for the throat and watch the fans go crazy

Making the 8 is only 55.5% pass. If we're still 3 years away from finals after 3 years of rebuilding then we've failed.

Honestly I think you keep saying this same story year after year to make you feel......comfortable with losses and a mediocracy team...

[Gigantor]

For mine..its put up or shut up time...rebuilding is an ongoing aspect of every club.However i do think that much of our success will come with a fit and firing foley and vickers,added to the usual suspects.cotch.lids.martin etc
