North who have have us mentally beaten already
Hawthorn
Edihad specialists Bulldogs
Dangerfield inspired Geelong
Frankensteins monster GWS
Sydney Squeeze.

Looks pretty scary to me.

The comp is pretty close this year.

If we lift our game a bit I reckon we can give the dogs a run for their money.

Sweet Dreams baby

We would need a 50 story lift to beat the dogs IMHO, but will stand corrected should that occur

Reality is we need 11-13 wins to make the eight - Can only drop 2-3 matches from here to do it.

Freo are crapola - We have been terrible this year apart from the Sydney game.

I Hope but we need a bigger turn around than what has been done so far. Essendon Gold Coast and Brisbane all at the G in the next 4 weeks are a  must - drop one its over - Win them and prove something against Norf in Tassie and it may just be on.

I think we can peg ( no pun intended ) it back to 6-7 but we then face a massive crunch match against Port Adelaide.

Our season will hinge on the out come of that match.

I reckon we will find a way to stuff this season up. I'm certain we will lose to the Roos and have a feeling we will drop a game to one of the Brisbanes

With our crap % 11 or 12 wont be enough IMESHO

We need 13 wins and just cannot see it happening

yep, which just amazes me that we seemed so content to play the game out against freo without going for the juggular - anyone could see freo were ripe for a 70-80 point thumping if the opposition was willing (or good enough)

Lmao at all this faith that is based on our ability to beat the worst sides in the comp.

Stuff the 8. Play as many kids as possible and if we get there doing that then great.
