Geelong beats Brisbane
We Beat Eagles by 31+
We then beat Brisbane by more than Eagles beat Hawthorn
Long shot but not zero chance
Lets just win the next 5 games and go home happy.
Problem is we don't have the wriggle room with Scumwood a game behind with better %.Alternately if we have to drop 1, let it be in the next fortnight

Let's hope the Crows can roll them tomorrow. We've gotta finish top 4. Really don't want to meet the Dogs in the first week of the finals which is a real possibility if we finish 5th. It's hard to fathom but they really have our measure over the last few years.
they have our measure at shitsville. do they have it at The G?
Reminds me of an old t-shirt of mine.
He's listening, go ahead.

I we finished 5th I’d be disappointed but we are are almost certainly $1.02 favourites to win our final.We can absolutely hunt through four finals from fifth position.
A loss tomorrow could be a blessing in disguise.
Consider the fact that we’ve all been hoping like hell we get Geelong at the G. A fixturing quirk that forces the top side to play “away” to fourth.
Consider that the other two sides in the top four are interstate. If we finish fourth, one could argue that on merit alone we deserve to play interstate to one of those sides. A situation where a loss would have been likely, at least against WC.
So why not view finishing fifth and having to play four finals as the same as losing an interstate QF?
The difference being that we are likely to start September with a resounding win over a depleted Essendon, then play a depleted Collingwood at the G, followed by bunnies Brisbane away in the PF!
I could most certainly live with that.
