We should be able to win 4 of those, though Essendon and Brisbane will be tough.

I chose 5 since I would like to think we might be able to win 1 more out of Geelong, Adelaide, Hawthorn. I would think Adelaide would be most likely.

I also hope we do not have any more floggings. If we can stay with Geelong and Hawthorn then I think this will show real improvement. I want the boys to go into those two games thinking they can win though.

Bombers win
Lions win

Cats Hawks Crows hopefully win 1 possibly Adelaide with the fact they have no forward line at the moment all out injured. If we catch the Hawks on a bad day we may cause an upset there too. The Cats even on a bad day for them will be a loss to us. Neptune has a better chance of colliding with Pluto than us beating the Cats. If we get 0 wins from those 3 then we know that our perennial problem of beating the better sides will still haunt us and ultimately cost us a final 8 berth.

Dockers and Melbourne should be wins due to the those two teams jockeying for positions at the foot of the ladder managing their sides appropriately for Natanui. Although Melbourne would be the more dangerous opponent of the two bottom teams as they may want to end a bad season positively and may use our game to launch for a better 2009. The Irishman might be pencilling in round 22. Remember round 22 98 could be the 10 year anniversary of it. :lol

4 winnable games and 3 tough ones even if the Crows will be without Burton and maybe Porplyzia who are their 2 best players. They flogged us without Burton last time after half-time  :P.

We would need to win 5 to make the finals so we'll probably fall short by a game or two as we are inconsistent. Young sides are nortorious for being up and down.
