Where will we be after 11 rds?

[Sir]

Ok - so we have looked pathetic so-far :

However Terry is convinced that we should look at the longer picture, and has reaffirmed his belief (On The Couch) that we can make the finals.

He's been saying this for weeks, so I thought I would revisit the draw up until round 11 - and have included my thoughts - assuming that we:

a) play somewhere near our best/at least improve (not like the last few weeks)
b) the opposition play as they are at the moment (IMHO)

PS - I'm also assuming we never see King / Edwards / Shultz again

1. Blues - lost
2. Cats - lost
3. Dogs - lost
4. Demons - win (should be)
5. North - win (we may get over the line)
6. Swans - win is possible (albeit at SCG)
7. Lions - loss (sorry - they're playing too well)
8. Port - loss (sorry - but at AAMI - although we are a chance)
9. Dons - loss (sorry - but they just have a better game plan - and coach)
10 Freo - win (surely there are one or two teams worse than us? This is one of them)
11. Dogs - loss (when was the last time we beat them?

I make it 4 (best case 5) - from 11

Sorry - Terry - your time has come :clap

1. Blues - lost
2. Cats - lost
3. Dogs - lost
4. Demons - win (should be)
5. North - bogey side, always beat us.
6. Swans - possible flogging.
7. Lions - not on current form
8. Port - not in Adelaide
9. Dons - they are due to beat us.
10 Freo - Maybe win.
11. Dogs - why do we play them again???? are they having a laugh?

Hell, I voted 4 before I read the fixture. Make it 2-9.

zip!

We are a shambles! Just reading Plough's press conference and he admits we arent good enough. I know he was referring to the top teams but surely after 5 years thats where we should be.Terry have a look at yourself...you are a disgrace as a coach and I am not looking forward to next week. How do you expect to beat Melbourne if you only play a quarter of football against a team who senses they are going to be a real chance. I am fed up with you filling us with lies and misguided comments.

Explain to us terry why we aren't up to that level...no tell it as it is Terry not the *smile* you spruik after every loss....and will until the time comes when you are true to yourself and to us. Tell us why teams that were as bad as us have gone ahead and playinge xcellent football. Tell us why Hawthorn won a premiership last year when they were equally as bad. Why are Carlton playing good football and why a team like the Bulldogs have gone so well. Be true Terry...with the high drft picksyou have had you still cant get a gameplan going, players still cant make decisions or dispose of a ball. What we saw today was teh crap football you would expect to see in country junior leagues. Terry tell us why we wont be 0-11 after the 11 games...be true Terry and tell us you aren't good enough!

really will depend on player selections and injury. if all of cousins cotchin deledio foley thomson coughlan collins connors richo moore newman thursfield morton white rance are up and going they might win their fair share or most games against the middle of the road teams. they really need a few of the kids to take a step.

Why wouldn't Melbourne be looking forward to playing us next week? They would rate themselves a chance for sure.

And some others to take a step out the door.
