MICK'S PICK - 3rd LAST YEAR - 1st (Premiers)
MICK'S COMMENTS - With Brisbane losing hardly any players (Darren Smith), they are certain to be a very strong side once again. But one gets the feeling that sooner or later they will start a downhill slide that will end up with the core of their team leaving through retirement or release. I think that slide will start soon, but not yet. They are very tough to beat if they make the Grand Final, and expect them to be there.
