7. Dal Santo reveals 2018 ladder prediction

In June, former St Kilda and North Melbourne player Nick Dal Santo predicted what the ladder would look like come season’s end.

His predictions had mixed levels of success, as he correctly predicted five of the eight finalists, but missed on grand finalist Collingwood, who he placed in tenth.

He put both North Melbourne and both South Australian teams in the top eight, missing out on Collingwood, GWS and Hawthorn.

Dal Santo correctly put Carlton last and St Kilda in 16th, getting Brisbane and Gold Coast the wrong way around.

Ultimately, Dal Santo could have done better considering the stage of the season that he was predicting at.
