Greater Western Sydney
Although their demoralising Grand Final defeat will weigh heavily on the minds of everybody involved, GWS have the quality and now the experience to do it all again and do it better. The Giants list is poised for a prolonged tilt at an inaugural premiership, with an average age of 23.4 and an average games played of 75.1.
GWS have a perfect mix within their squad, with the energy and intensity of players like Tim Taranto and Josh Kelly complimenting the experience and maturity of leaders such as Phil Davis and Callan Ward. The Giants also benefitted from their injury struggles as youngsters Sam Taylor and Brent Daniels featured prominently in their finals campaign.
GWS have enough talent to win a premiership, the only question now is if they have the resilience to bounce back from their humiliation and exact revenge.
