The battle for the bottom 4 of the top 8

[yellowandback]

Handy time for G Ablett to have a 50 possie game 
Might have to throw some shrapnel his way to say thanks 

[Eat_em_Alive]

Gold coast just beat collingwood, so important we beat freo tomorrow and forge towards 5th spot,.

[Judge Roughneck]

EFC lose points

Suns win

If we beat frro we are half a game our of the four - double chance 

[mightytiges]

Port flogging the Saints already so the Blues will drop back outside the Eight  .

[Stripes]

Just another reminder to expect the unexpected at this time of the year 

[dwaino]

Glad we got one of these 3 games (Freo, Sydney, Hawks). Without getting ahead of ourselves, banking only Lions and GWS gives us 13. Anything else (Carlton maybe, Essendon would be great) and 14-15 wins and would be well ahead of anyone's expectations of this season. Good stuff

[mightytiges]

We should be safe now but I won't tick it off until we get to 13 wins. So at least two more to go.

[WilliamPowell]

1 down and 2 to go

13 wins and we are in

12 wins you're still likely relying others, 13 means you've got their on your own

[Hellenic Tiger]

Agreed.
Till we get to 13 I'm admitting to nothing, but keep it up Tigers.

The run home: round 17

6. Richmond
44 points (11 wins, five losses) 118 per cent

The Tigers will almost certainly play finals for the first time since 2001. A push for a top-four spot seems unlikely given they face the Sydney Swans and Hawthorn in the next fortnight and Essendon in the final round, but such a tough draw should prepare the Tigers for the intensity of finals football.

The run home:
Rd 18: Sydney Swans at the SCG
Rd 19: Hawthorn at the MCG
Rd 20: Brisbane Lions at the MCG
Rd 21: Carlton at the MCG
Rd 22: Greater Western Sydney at Skoda Stadium
Rd 23: Essendon at the MCG

Home final or GTFO

[Eat_em_Alive]

 

Before today I said 3-5 wins.
I think another 2 most likely while 3 wins from those remaining still possible. Win more than 14 games and I wouldnt have expected it and be blown away 

[gerkin greg]

If we don't beat Sydney I'm going upper decker on the entire Members stand

[one-eyed]

We're virtually certainties to the make the Eight now according to the bookies ...
