Where do we draw the line between success and failure for each AFL club in 2024?
Every club faces different challenges, has different expectations, and are on different trajectories each season.
Some teams have the simple equation of making finals or winning the flag. Others may need to show they can perform in September, or challenge for the eight without the requirement of making it.
What should be expected of Melbourne after an off-season of drama? Is it premiership or bust for Carlton? Could the Bulldogs' pass mark be the difference between keeping or losing Luke Beveridge?
See what we think below...
Carlton
Pass:ย Grand Final
We have seen what we needed to see, and their best may be better than expected. That's not the question with Carlton, their vice is the capacity to perform well consistently under duress.
Pressure does strange things to this club, so legitimate premiership credentials and expectations make them the most watchable team of 2024.
