The WAFL season is one round down and this year is shaping to be one of the biggest for the West Australian league. Here’s our team by team preview and our expected order of finish

Now that the NAB Cup competition is over, one thing is for sure: the real footy season is about to start! Football Nation’s team of writers have prepared a pre-season preview for the 2013 season for each and every club and we have been  posting them to our website each day for the last week. We’ve

THE Brisbane Lions have ended a decade of not adding any silverware to their trophy cabinet by winning the 2013 NAB Cup in emphatic fashion against Carlton at Etihad Stadium on Friday night. With both teams at almost full strength, the Blues went into the game hot favourites despite the fact that the Lions were

ADELAIDE fans can look forward to another bumper season in 2013. The Crows were incredibly brave against Hawthorn, continuing to fight until the very death before ultimately going down by less than a kick

AFTER pre-season success in the NAB Cup competition, wherein the team went undefeated, the Brisbane Lions will have a real fight this year once the season proper begins.

THERE is so much hype around Carlton since Mick Malthouse took over the reins and a NAB Cup final appearance (albeit a loss) has done nothing to abate it. In spite of this we can expect to see a much hungrier line-up this year

CAN Norwood win back-to-back SANFL flags for the first time since 1922-23? That is the major question to be answered leading into the 2013 season.

COACH Nathan Buckley will be looking to take this highly-talented squad two steps further in 2013 and it is certainly achievable. The mix of experience and youth in the team is exciting and will guarantee Collingwood as a contender for years to come

A HORROR pre-season off the field but the Bombers are hopeful of turning it around and providing fans – who have shown some faith – with some excitement.

THE Fremantle list is the strongest it’s been since the club made the 2006 Preliminary Final. The Dockers were unlucky against Adelaide in last year’s semi final going down late despite being in the contest for three and half quarters.

IT will be interesting to see how season 2013 plays out for the Cats. Most had them pencilled in for a mouth-watering preliminary final clash with Hawthorn in September last year but they were beaten by a more determined Fremantle side.

THERE is still plenty of improvement to come from the Gold Coast but the story of the season may be how patient the club and its fans can be.

DRAFT picks and talent can only get you so far and Kevin Sheedy is the perfect fit for the Giants at the moment but he will also instil this list with a key ingredient and that’s guts and determination from a young age.

HAWTHORN will be looking to re-ignite its premiership hopes after losing to Sydney in last year’s grand final. That alone will provide it with plenty of motivation heading into the 2013 season and it may be about how many players want to taste that success and how hungry they will be to achieve it

THE Demons were extremely active in the draft and trade period adding a good mix of veteran and young talent but now faces the task of finding a way of getting the right combination of players onto the field.

NORTH Melbourne was perceived to have had a so called ‘easy’ draw in 2012 and made the finals accordingly and for some they may now be seen as the most vulnerable to slide out of the 8 this season. But not for us

IT’S an exciting time if you’re a Port Adelaide supporter. It may not seem like it, but it definitely is.

As a Collingwood supporter, I would know. What is happening at Alberton now is almost a carbon copy of the change that swept through Victoria Park towards the end of the previous century

                Team: Port Adelaide Coach: Ken Hinkley Player Losses: Retired: None Delisted: Jacob Surjan, Simon Phillips, Jarrad Irons, Daniel Webb, Mitch Curnow, Mitch Banner, Ben Jacobs, Steven Salopek Traded: David Rodan (Melbourne), Free Agency: Troy Chaplin (Richmond), Danyle Pearce (Fremantle) Deceased: John McCarthy Player Additions: Traded:  Angus Monfries

WE all know that the Tigers had a lot of close losses in 2012 and their inconsistent, you could even say horrendous, kicking for goal was a big part of that.

ST KILDA could have one quickest and most exciting forward lines in 2013, if the early stages of pre-season are anything to go by. Stephen Milne, Ahmed Saad, Terry Milera and Trent Dennis-Lane (otherwise known as the ‘mosquito fleet’) will cause much headaches for opposition defenders

Nothing to say that the Swans won’t be again challenging for the flag in 2013. Hawthorn may start favourites but Sydney has bolstered its line-up and not lost much in comparison.

The West Cost veterans – Cox, Kerr, Embley and Glass – will be hell-bent on winning one more premiership before they retire. The Eagles will be seething they missed a golden opportunity to crack the top four in 2012, don’t expect them to make the same mistake in 2013.

The Bulldogs are a young developing team with only a few experienced players left. They will be hoping to string a few wins together for the season but it is hard to see them contend for finals with the current crop

After a desultory four-win campaign in 2011 it was widely expected that the Lions would struggle again in 2012. But while Voss and co. may not have made the finals they did impress down the stretch as a group of young players emerged to give the Lions a spark en-route to winning 10 games

THE Crows want to win it, the Saints aren’t interested and the Power want to test their best squad out on the park during the NAB Cup round one series tonight. Three different scenarios show the different methods clubs come to the line to play with in the NAB Cup. Adelaide is an interesting one.

The players to watch featuring in round one of the NAB Cup beginning tonight

The Adelaide Crows were a revelation last year, storming their way to a NAB Cup grand final victory by defeating the West Coast Eagles by 34 points and then backing it up with 17 wins and a second place finish on the ladder
