Its Timagpie and today I was just thinking to my self that I have a real genuine feeling that COLLINGWOOD can play off in the finals. But it is not Setpember yet and its only early july.
Can anybody tell me how many wins the mighty magpies need to win to break the finals drought?
COLLINGWOOD ARE CURRENTLY 5-8 AFTER 13 ROUNDS

GOOD OLD COLLINGWOOD UNITED FOREVER AND EVER AMEN GOD BLESS THEM ALL

Since the final 8 system came in the best result to finish 8th was 12 wins and 108 percent, but average seems to be about 11 wins and 103 percent with Brisbane getting in with 10 wins and 1 draw in 1997.
So there you have it ,
I reckon this year , with our percentage 11 wins will do it, 12 to be certain.
But stuff it Im going for a top 4 stop (but lets not count the chickens)

The pies have a tough run home though.
Haven't been 8-5 for years though.

ALL I CAN SAY IS THAT MAGPIE MICK MALTHOUSE HAS GOT THE MIGHTY MAGPIES RIGHT WHERE HE WANTS THEM SITTING WELL IN THE EIGHT AND 8 ROUNDS LEFT. AND A GREAT CHANCE TO CONSOULIDATE OUR POSTION.
COLLINGWOOD WIN 2 MORE MATCHES THEY ARE INTO THE FINALS
PREDICTED POSTION : 4TH
BRING IT ON

GOOD OLD COLLINGWOOD UNITED FOREVER AND EVER AMEN GOD BLESS THEM ALL
