1. (4) GEELONG
We’ve been predicting their demise for five or six years now but they just keep winning.

| Next Five | COLL (H) | ? | ? | ? | ? |
2. (10) ESSENDON
Our stubbourness in relation to the Bombers is over. A Liam Jones header away from an undefeated start to the season, they deserve to be near the top of our rankings at this point of the season.
| Last Five | FRE (W) | SYD (W) | CARL (L) | COLL (W) | NM (W) |

3. (2) PORT ADELAIDE
Back on the winners list but far from their best against the Giants.
| Last Five | ADE (W) | FRE (W) | WCE (W) | BL (L) | GWS (W) |
| Next Five | CARL (A) | ? | ? | ? | ? |
4. (1) BRISBANE
From chocolates to boiled lollies, the Lions were good early but not for long enough to get the points against Geelong

5. (14) CARLTON
With three big scalps to their name, can the Blues return to the finals in 2020?
| Last Five | MELB (L) | GEE (W) | ESS (W) | STK (L) | WB (W) |
| Next Five | PA (H) | ? | ? | ? | ? |
6. (8) WESTERN BULLDOGS
There winning streak was brought to a sudden halt by the rampaging Blues raising plenty of questions about just how good they are.
| Last Five | STK (L) | GWS (W) | SYD (W) | NM (W) | CARL (L) |
| Next Five | ESS (A) | ? | ? | ? | ? |
7. (13) WEST COAST
Have their two wins to end hub life set them up for a genuine assault on the flag?
| Last Five | GC (L) | BL (L) | PA (L) | SYD (W) | ADE (W) |
| Next Five | FRE (A) | ? | ? | ? | ? |
8. (9) ST KILDA
A few market corrections on other teams sees the Saints rise despite losing the unloseable on the weekend. Anything less than a victory against Adelaide will see them plummet quickly.

9. (6) RICHMOND
Champion teams win when playing poorly and Richmond are definitely playing poorly.

10. (3) COLLINGWOOD
Back on the winners list but far from impressive. We need to see more from them to return them to the upper reaches of our rankings.
| Last Five | RICH(D) | STK (W) | GWS (L) | ESS (L) | HAW (W) |
| Next Five | GEE (A) | ? | ? | ? | ? |
11. (5) GWS
A market correction for the Giants, still yet to consistently do anything in 2020 apart from perform inconsistently.
| Last Five | NM (L) | WB (L) | COLL (W) | HAW (W) | PA (L) |
| Next Five | BL (H) | ? | ? | ? | ? |
12. (7) HAWTHORN
We’ve lost patience with the Hawks after another disappointing defeat. No longer can we justify the lofty position they held as a result of their victory over Richmond.
| Last Five | GEE (L) | RICH (W) | NM (W) | GWS (L) | COLL (L) |
| Next Five | MELB (H) | ? | ? | ? | ? |
13. (12) GOLD COAST
Beaten but not broken against the Cats, this young team is developing fast.

14. (16) FREMANTLE
Back from the dead, the head home with a spring in their step after a memorable win over the Saints.

15. (17) MELBOURNE
Can one win in Homebush turn an entire season around?

16. (11) NORTH MELBOURNE
The Kangaroos fast start to the season is a distant memory after four straight defeats.

17. (15) SYDNEY
The only thing that can make being part of the worst game ever played is losing the worst game ever played.

18. (18) ADELAIDE
Will be looking forward to their first home game at the Adelaide Oval, could it be the change of luck they’ve been waiting for?
