I've done a ladder predictor and we CAN make it in, but we're relying on Norf to implode.

Nah, I doubt it, but by golly, we can scare the bejeeesus outa those sides above us now, we can sure help shape the eight, and top four, we may well cause mayhem now. LOL

Doubtful. But things are definitely looking at a bright future.

We can make life hell for those in the 8, and

Suffer GWS, you lost a spot in the top 4 AND a top 3 pick for Treloar.

We just need to win every game from here and end on 14 wins. The rest should take care of itself. Easy 😀

Mathematically? Yes
Realistically? No

If we beat the Crows next week, then you might be onto something.

that's one heck of a run home. five top 8 teams plus gcs and tiges. this is the section of the draw that was likely to do us in even if we were 8-3 at the turn.

The game style is the important thing... keep up this level and we will win most of our remaining games and be a real chance to push deep next year!

Just need to keep playing the tough attacking footy - great to watch Smile

The fact that this question is posed highlights the massive improvement from this team that has hit rock bottom and is now on the up...

If we beat the Crows, I reckon we're a real chance to win our remaining 6 games. Do that and we are a definite chance to make the 8. but let's face it, it's a big ask.

Yeah, but we're doing this season backwards compared to the last 2.

If the injury gods stay away, it is possible. Of course it is unlikely. Geelong, Footscray and today all show that we can beat the best, with our best team on the park. we'll poba bly die wondering along the way, but where there is mathematics, there is hope.

whilst improbable, if a spot in the final is achieved it will have been earned and once there anything is possible. particularly, this year.
