Showing signs of a hangover. Can they get back into the top 4 and give themselves a chance of another GF appearance?

Don't want them to. Want to see them knocked out week 1 of the finals by a controversial goal after the siren.
Annoying opposition supporters since 1967.

Oh, that reminds me they won in 2017 against Port after a controversial goal after the siren. Hmmm...

Yes, they can it turnaround but they're playing very ordinary football at the moment.

It's amazing we still managed to lose to this mob, but it's possible we won't have to work out how to beat them this September because we won't meet them. Certainly Eade thinks we've "worked out" Richmond, but that may be redundant info this September.

If they could make it and win it in 2018 with about half a team, they can make it any year.

Not any year, only years in an AFL Window of Mediocrity, the latest of which started in 2016 and is ongoing.

^Yes, fair enough. They are the Salieri of premiership teams.

One of the countless regrets a Pies supporter has is that e.g. the 2002-3 team didn't play in a Window of Mediocrity.

Yes, we could / should have had 4 extra premierships
2002 and 2003 if not for the AFL's monster in Brisbane
2007 and 2011 if not for Geelong - we would have smashed the Power if we won that damn PF in 07. Also, 2007 was a Dank performance enhanced Geelong side.

I still think they'll make the top 4 by seasons end.
They always struggle at the SCG. They've lost to Sydney there in 1992, 2005 and 2018, which are years when they've made the Grand Final.

We can make up for it in a few weeks time when we're playing them in Perth.

Oh no doubt that will be the week they decide to play themselves back into form and contention then!
