Ok
AFL, The Hawks (surprise team of the season you watch) and the Swans in the finals (they have recruited well - go spidey) The first coach sacked will be dennis pagen- god that man has more lives than a frigin cat- watch for cellar dwellers- the bombers, port adelaide and sad to say brisbane.
NRL
Surpised if the titans do not feature in the finals series, also watch for a rejuvinated cowboys. First coach to go will be mmm nah too many coach changes last year this year they are safe because of payout cost of termination of their contacts. The loosers will again be the bunnies- still can not fix their halves, the panthers and regrettably the eels...
Super 14
The winners - the blues and crusaders. first coach to fall will be mmm eddie jones is already under the pump maybe goone unless they have the same problem paying out the contact.
The losers will be the reds and the cats although the lions are earley contenders for the prized last spot too..
anyway thats my take...

Yeah footy!!! Ah Sweet! Another 6 whole months of Football (real football - not soccer, which will always be soccer and not football)! I love it, LoL!!!
AFL - I'm expecting the Swans to continue their awesome form from 2005&2006, flags in 05 and missed by a point in 06, I think they can go all the way, if not close, this year again. West Coast, also, will be great. I have a feeling that the 'pies and the Cats might be a wildcard for this season, and the Kangaroos will also be on the mend, maybe for next year's finals. Alot more people this year should get into AFL, the new free-to-air TV deal sounds great and audiences really should take advantage of it.
NRL - Brisbane and Melborne will be forces again in 2007. Titans look good, might be a Cinderella story lodged in somewhere for the newcomers. I hope Wests Tigers will go well. The Eels, under Michael Hagan, will be a top eight team. I don't like Brian Smith, but the Knights hopefully will find a path under his coaching. Penrith, Sharks and Raiders, I haven't heard anything about, but don't look great going into season 07.
Union/Super 14s - Desperately need a bigger national audience. My least favourite out of the 3. The Wallabies, I think, won't be one of the uber top teams in the World Cup. NZ dominate, and they will for a while. It's just their time. Maybe the Wallabies will be in unprecidented form, all other teams will be plagued with injury, and out of no where - a World Cup for Australia!?! Hmmm...maybe (not)...LoL

The dockers will take out the grand final for afl. essendon will have a poor season. I think the blues have the super 14 trophy in the bag and the good old qld reds will do what they do best and bag the wooden spoon. The nrl is more heavily contested but my bet is for the storm to take it out this time. Also i think the rabbitohs will have a half decent season which will be a nice change. gc titans will be round middle with the warriors taking out the wooden spoon.

AFL. My fiancé loves the footy season. In our house its West Coast Eagles all the way. Most hated team is Collingwood. All Victorian teams suck bigtime. I have heard that Freo Dockers are going to be better that the Eagles this year. I say, go West Australia!!

The Eagles & Dockers will play off in the Grand Final
Bottom 3 will be Essendon, Carlton, Collingwood.
Mick Malthouse will be concussed by a thrown moccasin, chucked by a toothless Pies fan

Eagles will have a premiership hangover, Port Adelaide Power might make the 8, but won't go far in the finals.

My prediction? I'll ignore the AFL and the Soccer, maybe take some notice of the League and Union. But not a lot. Could not give a stuff about any of them, actually.

GO THE CROWS Adelaide Crows will win the premiership this year and show that we are still the best team around. Oh Footy oh how i have missed you.
With the other codes I'm sorry but I have no idea as I don't watch them.

We are backing the Gold Coast Titans. We don't really follow the other codes.
