Oppo Camp Non Geelong football (AFL) discussion 2024, Part 2

Remove this Banner Ad

With Daniher retired, only 3 teams who made finals in 2024 will enter the 2025 season with a key forward who kicked more than 45 goals in the previous season (Curnow at Carlton, Cameron at Geelong and Hogan at GWS).

There's a lot of 2025 finals contenders now with KPF issues, including five of the 2024 finalists:

Brisbane (Hipwood is a B-grader and they have no one else)
Sydney (Amartey and McDonald are unreliable and yet to have breakout seasons)
Port Adelaide (Georgiades has injury issues, Marshall is inconsistent, and Dixon is cooked)
Hawthorn (Lewis is perennially injured and Dear is still a kid)
Western Bulldogs (Ugle-Hagan and Darcy could be superstars admittedly but they're not proven yet, and Naughton is erratic and overrated)

Then there's the teams looking to bounce back into the eight who also have KPF issues:

Collingwood (Mihocek is just a good honest battler and they have nothing beyond him)
Fremantle (Treacy and Amiss are very exciting talents but aren't A-graders yet)
Essendon (Wright sucks)
St Kilda (Max King is not a player who can be trusted to kick straight or stay healthy)
Melbourne (have nothing)

Interesting times for forward structures across the comp. :think:
