Will we win a final?
« on: August 17, 2015, 09:57:59 PM »
Yes?
No?

Heart vs Head?

Head says we won't because others are either playing better or have the wood on us
Heart says we are Stewy Due.

Isn't it funny, I'd feel more confident if we were playing Hawthorn or Freo than either Geelong, North or the Bulldogs!!

We can still miss the top 8, if we get in i think we can beat anyone on our day, maybe 1 win.
Our last 3 games especially against nth are pretty much like finals anyway, we have to win them all for a top 4 chance

Of course we have to get there first. But I think we will win one this year. We will most likely crash out afterwards because the players will be spent after winning their maiden final ala the lethargic performance against Port last year following 9 in a row.

So you don't think we'll get there, therefore you don't think we'll win a final?

We breed soft limp-wrist pansies at punt road.
Unless we get back to being ruthless, uncompromising, unsociable
and tough we will never win a final.

No confidence we will even make the eight with this mob....
What a joke!  :banghead

Like the Hawks game?
We all know it's possible.
The question is whether it's probable.

That's as good as a no.

Not really.

We aren't a lock yet so until we are not thinking about finals.

Ask me again next week (if we win we are lock) and I'll answer

Depends on our mindset. Last year making the finals was a roaring success to Dimma and the playing group. They didn't go into the Port game with enough hunger because in their minds, they'd had a sensational season just by getting there.

x2. Add Sydney in the 'more confident' box too.

If we ended up in the top 4 by some miracle then I would be more confident of at least getting to Preliminary final week than finally winning an elimination final.
