I think, for what it's worth, we are one injury away from disaster to either Reiwoldt, Dusty or Rance and they are one year older with one year more wear and tear.  If none go down we might make top 8. If one or two go down we could be bottom 4 depending how early it happened.  We are still reliant on too few players IMHO.

I would add Nank into that group as well

Won't impact on training standards tho
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Was talking to a guy I know (who is quite often right with these sorts of things) and he assured me not to take too much out of that Collingwood game so I'm going to trust his word.

In what context? The slow start or the fast finish?

More so the fast finish. They aren't happy with the way the first quarter blew out but playing in 3rd gear and going harder in the last was always part of the plan.
