I dont think you can write any team off to make the eight at this early stage of the season, surely.I mean anything can (and unusually does) happen.
Brown back for Brisbane will see them structure up better even though he may not go well fresh who knows.If he fires goodnight Dons.

The older Brisbane players are slower and cannot dominate a game like they used to. The desire may even have left some. Most of the younger brigade are not up to scratch. The loss of players like Lynch is already well documented. The loss to other clubs of players like Pratt and Shattock has also hurt them. Then throw in that young gun - forgot his name - who is injured for the season. He was one of Brisbane's highest winners of hard ball gets last year. The new centre square also badly affects Brisbane - much harder to run in and bash the ball forward.
Brisbane are finished.


Richard Hadley is the "young gun" and losing him for the season was an ENORMOUS loss.

Back the bandwagon up.

By the way this is completely objective, being a Collingwood supporter I HATE the **************s but my money needs to go elsewhere, no more will the pies carry my hard earned this season.

Brisbane beat a red hot St Kilda in Round 1 and played very well.

They were beaten by TWO points against Port Adelaide, who admittedly aren't flash at the moment either, but it was still a high quality and intensity game.

They were beaten by four? points against Sydney after leading throughout the match.

Essendon have been just as if not more poor.

Johnathon Brown is back. Lappin and Black are beginning to get match fitness.

My money will be saying Brisbane.

Brisbane sure look finished to me. Two wins from seven and a tough game coming up this week. They've lost the last three at the Gabba. They couldn't beat the Bulldogs after getting as close as four points in the last quarter with the home crowd behind them. You can't forget either the way Hawthorn slaughtered them.
