Let's worry about next week's  game the suns we will go in as favourites and that's when we go onto our shell and have brain fades while other clubs have been pumping them.

2 wins and a bit of % on the Eagles in 9th. 13 wins is usually the magical number to be a finals certainty. So we still need two more to tick that box off starting with the Suns next week. We need to mentally turn up though with the same intensity as after 1/4 time today. As we saw in the first qtr and in the previous two weeks, our worst would see us drop a winnable game and make today's win meaningless, as well as put us back in the pack of the sides chasing a top 8 finish.

Having said all that, we should be now aiming for top 2 or at least finishing in the top 4.

4. Richmond

44 points (11 wins, six losses) 108.6 per cent
A huge win for the Tigers against the Giants in the proverbial 'eight-point game'. They’re a game clear in fourth and the double chance is theirs for the taking, but being Richmond, this will go down to the wire. If they can win four from five they should get it. The Hawks will make them earn it, but the Geelong game away after that is massive. Good luck trying to get a ticket for that one.

The run home

Rd 19: Gold Coast (Metricon Stadium)
Rd 20: Hawthorn (MCG)
Rd 21: Geelong (Simonds Stadium)
Rd 22: Fremantle (Domain Stadium)
Rd 23: St Kilda (MCG)

Won't beat Geelong....could  win or lose all of the other four....never won at Metricon and Ablett's in form plus our history coming off good wins, Hawthorn coming home with a wet sail,  Freo over there with Fyfe regaining some form, Walters bringing his own ball, Lyon outsmarting Halfstep...and then we just need at least a 12 goal turn-around v St.Kilda.... :gotigers

Win all four remaining games and we finish in 2nd - provided Geelong beats GWS in round 23

I will start believing if we can beat Geelong.

Until then I still don't reckon we deserve to play finals.

Have you missed the last three decades of Richmond-Geelong matches?

Based on the last 60 years the Bulldogs couldn't possibly win a flag last year ... oh wait!
Also, anybody who watched Adelaide disarm Geelong & stuff them would realize why we are perfectly equipped to do the same ...    :shh

No apparentlywe'll beat them because Footscray won the flag last year....
