The season kicks off in earnest tomorrow so it's time for a quick run down on the teams and their likely chances in season 2015:
RAV - Talk is they will be a weaker squad having lost Phoenix and his just as chirpy younger brother. Relying on new faces is a dangerous game in the PL.
Mr EUS predicts: 10th place and the SL teams/supporters to enjoy some Peel souvlakia in 2016.
PEN - A young squad building towards better things in years to come. Don't expect to see any August football this year - except from the sidelines.
Mr EUS predicts: 8th place
YMA - Swept all before them in SL2014 and will be champing at the bit to prove their worth as promoted teams want to do. Expect a big win at home first up tomorrow and top 4 placing first half of the season before fading late.
Mr EUS predicts: 6th place
NMH - Another young squad who narrowly avoided relegation in 2014. Expect a similar season with a couple of redeeming results but mostly just keeping their heads above water.
Mr EUS predicts: 9th place
WPH - Written off by some pre-season but with such a strong junior base they always seem to confound the doomsayers. Expect a top 4 finish but little joy against the big boys in the big games come August.
Mr EUS predicts: 4th place
STA - Solid but uninspiring in 2014 and don't expect too much different from the boys from Eastwood in 2015. Would get similar results playing their ressies side in firsts each week.
Mr EUS predicts: 7th place
EEW - Always in the conversation for finals football but lack depth in first grade side to really mix it over 18 games. Ageing spine of Mouyis, Petza, Turner and Wright may have missed their opportunity.
Mr EUS predicts: 5th place
HWK - Talk of unrest in the camp will prove to be a storm in a teacup. Got some real belief from results in second half of last season. Dark horse to take the next step this year.
Mr EUS predicts: 3rd place
KEN - Too big, too strong again in 2015. Won't win the comp by as many points but real competition for them will again come in Champion of Champions.
Mr EUS predicts: 1st place (surprise, surprise!)
PHD - Strong squad again in 2015 should maintain their stranglehold on top 2 positions with KEN. Still don't quite have the depth to topple Bushboys but expect it to be a little closer this year.
Mr EUS predicts: 2nd place
Good luck to all for a great season 2015. To any with their noses out of joint having read this please go out and prove Mr EUS wrong! ;)
The y won't win a game. Have only kept 2-3 players from last years team. Long long long season ahead the goals against will rival a cricket score card.
Over 35s, overseas, couple had newborns, they didn't have really have depth last year the ressies didn't make the semies they had a good 13-14 players and only 3 or 4 stayed even the coach left.
Underestimate Rav at your own peril this year lads. They Won't be contenders from what we saw but they will pull a few pants down if you go there expecting 3 points.
