    Sorry,

    I don't think so. A-league.com's Bill Fetty wrote up a nice piece. The main USL site wrote up a nice piece and www.soccer365.com did a series of four articles about the A-league.

    They could have done a better job.

    Just my opinion. All this could change becasue i know atleast of 2 free agents still available in the free agent market. Forward Jimmy Tanner who could be a solid sub for a playoff team and Mali Walton, in my opinion a top 5 defender in the a-league. Any team that signs him could go from mid-level defenses to one of the best.

    As a Rhinos fan, i of course hope we will win it. But with so many changes, i don't think the chemestry will be there and even though i think we will be one of the better teams during the season, in the playoffs i think we will be too young and not expieriened enough to win and bouce out maybe in the first round.

    Montreal kept all their top players from last season and added Martin Nash who is one of the better mids in the league. Sebrango and Biello are stars and Gervias is in my opinion going to be one of the best defenders in this league. I also think Jason DiTullio is going to be outstanding his second season.

    What a joke picking Vancouver to finish 3rd in the division.

    Of course not. No point in predicting how good teams are going to be when you don't know who's on the rosters (most rosters are incomplete and some teams don't have any rosters on their sites). Then theres the fact that with regional schedules we don't get to see most of the teams. It's hard to judge.
