Based only on what I've heard:
Virginia - haven't heard much but think they would be around the mark again. Would expect them to make the 4 but would not be surprised if they just missed out due to a log jam
Two Wells - again challenging for the four, another team that could be in a log jam. Depending on recruits could be right in the mix
Mallala - my pick for the flag at this very early stage
Hamley Bridge - big sliders with a mass exodus of players. Bottom two
United - big improvers with a new coach and a few big recruits to cover their losses. Another team that could be fighting for that last spot on the 4. My smokey
Balaklava - will punch above their weight and should challenge for a spot in the 4, although I dont think they'll challenge for the flag
HWE - big impovers from last season, though I don't think they'll make the 4 (more than happy to be proved wrong)

Impossible to say with any accuracy at this stage of the season, but looking forward to another very even year on the plains

What makes you think that Hummocks will be "big" improvers? I hope you're right but have I missed something?

Yeah, I'd hate to see them worsen, you kinda feel for them as it would be hard to attract players, pretty much like United though given they have such a small township.
Does anyone know the approximate populations of he towns in the APFL regions?

In theory do you reckon people that live and grow up in the bustling town of Windsor should be assigned to us?
If so, I reckon we have missed out on the greatest player to ever come out of Windsor in the last 30 years.

Yeh because I bet they were feeling sorry for all the teams they used to beat by over 15 goals over their 8 year period of success
