need to win 7 of 9 the ask is getting harder. will deserve to make it if we can win those 7. hopefully we can have at least one more  win against one of the fancied teams.

Yeah fair call Ill agree with deserving to make finals if we win 7 0f 9 because that would be a feat, but to be brutally honest its not going to happen

Smacks of the Gold Coast game last year when we kicked 6.8 to 1.2 in the first and kicked 3 more majors for the rest of the match.

Win all nine and we finish 5th. Hardwick gets another five years.

Lose all nine and we finish 16th. We are looking for a coach and cull another 10 players.

I, as always, will enjoy the ride.

I don't know what I'm laughing at actually - the fact that it's funny or it's true - both of which are correct!

The run home - Richmond (afl site)

The run home
By Ben Guthrie
afl.com.au
Mon 02 Jul, 2012

11. Richmond
24 points (six wins, seven losses) 106.23 per cent

The run home:
Rd 15: Melbourne at the MCG
Rd 16: Gold Coast at Cazaly's Stadium (Cairns)
Rd 17: North Melbourne at the MCG
Rd 18: Carlton at the MCG
Rd 19: Brisbane Lions at the Gabba
Rd 20: Western Bulldogs at the MCG
Rd 21: Fremantle at Patersons Stadium
Rd 22: Essendon at the MCG
Rd 23: Port Adelaide at the MCG

The Tigers' best is very good, but they need to find a way to grind out victories. Fortunately, their run home offers ample opportunity. Essendon is the only top-six side the Tigers confront between now and September. Carlton and Fremantle (away) are their next toughest assignments, while the Suns, Lions, Power and Demons present chances for both wins and potentially vital percentage boosts.

Freo have done nothing since beating us. North have suprised and now Brisbane are starting to play well.

This season is turning out to be a beauty especially the fact that carlscum continue to fail.   :birthday

i'm not expecting to make it but I do expect to win those games we "should" win. This will be a tick in the improvement column for this season and that includes a big PAYBACK, nail in the coffin win against those cheating scum. 

Finals is still a dream for us unfortunately.

Let's beat that discusting scum cheating rabble round 18 and we can all party till next year.  :gotigers

melb, GC, WB and Port are certain wins(4), the remaining 5 are 50/50 yes even the lions at the Gabba. we'll probably win 1-2 of those

We'll end up with 12 wins, miss out on the 8 by percentage or a game
