Footy’s back and Cameron Ling has put himself on the line ahead of the first bounce!

The Geelong great is tipping Greater Western Sydney to finish on top this season, with the Western Bulldogs to make another grand final appearance.

‘Just look at the talent,’ Ling said of the Giants.

‘They’ve got top 10 draft picks everywhere and then they’ve gone and picked up some experienced guns.’

He’s tipping the Brisbane Lions to take out the wooden spoon and Melbourne to sneak into the top eight.

Ling’s expecting Port Adelaide to perform far better this year than last, with Adelaide to miss out on finals action.
