lions. have the best midfield of the 3 at the moment, beams, rockliff, hanley, bastinac, robinson, rich, zorko. if josh walker and daniel merrett can remain injury free i think lions will be a lot better this year than most people think.
2. st kilda
3. melbourne
in 3 or 4 years time i think it will probably be a lot different, unless lions and saints youngsters turn out to be better than projected at the moment.

purely from a bias view point, i have seen a lot of the lions young talent over the years and i rate their current young players ie. andrews, dawson, mayes, gardner, cutler, freeman and with schache, hipwood and keays nearly certain this year and 2 projected top 5 draft picks from the academy in allison and ballenden coming through in the next 2 drafts i think the talent is there for the lions to be a very good side in the future.
saying that i watch very little football of other teams near the bottom of the ladder.
