3 hoodoos to break in a row- We haven't beaten Collingwood since 2007; we've struggled in the past against Ross Lyon coached sides; and we haven't beaten Geelong since 2006 IIRC. Any win will be a further sign of improvement and now that we've got three wins in the bank any win against these three sides will also keep us ahead of the ledger after the first six rounds.

The next 3
Port Adelaide away
Melbourne     home
Essendon      home

Will we be 6-3, 5-4, 4-5 or 3-6?

Ideally 6-3 would be great and 5-4 okay.

Need to beat Port to set us up.

Let's see how the club responds.

5-4 I think. 6-3 possible. We need to make a few changes though. Didn't think we'd win any of the previous 3 though thought Freo was out best crack. These games are easier depending how Essendon are going by round 9 (usually their good form lasts till round 8). Hopefully Geelong start the derailment of their season. Otherwise we can do it. Everyone has to lose eventually.  :shh West Coast the week after are gettable too. They aren't as good as Freo and we got within a point of Freo.

Correct

Monday 3rd of June is the Eagles game

Could be another long flight home on the red-eye; like the Freo game  ;D

Take a day off WP and come home relaxed.
Could be a long trip home anyway in the wee small hours so why make it more taxing. ;D

I have only said that if we lose to Port our season is shot. If we defeat Port then the season can be saved.

The Port Adelaide match is going to be a tough match.

"IF" we win the next two then some belief is back installed.
