All good Norris, we won't take that as favouritism for the flag. We'll take the underdog status in both grades this year.
As for your other comments,i think its great how it may work out, every club bar those three having a team in, justifies the re-structure i think.
Premier- East Coast v Wests GF, with Town to grab 5th. Depth may be a problem for them though.
1sts- will be a repeat of last two years in 1st Div, UTS v Manly, coin toss, but I'll go the Bats, even though Wolves have a match winner in that pink haired clown, whats his name? Although Eagles do have the runs on the board,and great depth,they may take it from third.
2nds- Power over Mac Uni. Power have genuine match winners on every line,and Big Al close to a ton up front.
3rd- Dogs can start as faves,i'm happy with that, but on the day we'll nail em. Will be by less than 3 goals, same result as our last three meetings going to 06 GF.
4th- Sydney Uni will be faves again, but our boys will give them hell on a bigger ground than St Pauls, we'll take the double. Mac Uni will threaten too.
I can be as bias as i want! Eagles will win over North in Prem 18s and Sydney Uni over Penriff in Challenge.

Still a long way to go, and I reserve the right to change my mind - but at this stage my tips would be:

Premier - East Coast (North Shore to squeeze into last spot in the finals)
1st Div - UTS
2nd Div - Southern Power
3rd Div - NorWest Jets (Hope I'm not putting the kiss of death on you Pekay)
4th Div - Sydney Uni
Under 18s Prem - North Shore
Under 18s Chall - Sydney Uni

One interesting result of the divisional structure, is that we're likely to see the premierships, and finals appearances, more evenly spread around the clubs this year than we have in the past; where it was common to see the same teams playing in both the seniors and reserves grand finals.
If the final ladders were to stay as they currently are in all divisions, only two clubs (Balmain and Camden), plus Riverview, won't have at least one of their teams in the finals.
