7th and 8th spot

Firmly believe 7th and 8th are up for grabs.

Freo have started slowly and Saints I reckon will plateau. Cats won't make it. Get a run on and we can still play finals. No point in tanking we have first pick. So get to finals and get some great experience into some younger players.
Go Tigers!

Definitely spots up for grabs but I don't like our chances given Lynch seems to be a long way off still and we will continue playing our 2017 style forward like although Jack is 6 years older and in the twilight + our small forwards are considerably worse than the old Rioli/George/Butler setup.

So I'm still giving us basically no chance unfortunately.

Saints rubbish
Dogs not much chop

Shame Freo beat Melbourne

But do agree , finals aren’t shot

12.5 will be plenty

not shot, as i thought we would be within this range. Though not sure it matters anymore if we just embarrass ourselves like all the other elimination finals we have played in recently.

That would all be great if we were any good.  If we win today, maybe.

All signs look like 7,8, 9, 10, 11, 12 is out of reach

We're not winning the prem this year, we know that.

Time to play some kids, retire a few old guys in style and generally refresh the joint. We should be targeting a quick rebound.
