11-12 most likely (on current form). We're a shadow of the side we were in the first half of the year. We won't play finals playing the way we do now.

Strangely enough we can still play finals this year.I'm not saying it will happen,but it could.The games against Richmond and Geelong at the M.C.G are more winnable (especially with Cloke,Elliott,Reid and Adams back in) than the game against the Bulldogs with the weak team we had today.

Looking at the ladder 12th is probably the best we can hope for, outside chance of 13th if the saints get on a run.

Pick 7 likely.

Every game is a 50/50 at best from here, favorites against the Blues you'd think, but would anyone be surprised if we lost a low scoring slog against the Dees next week?

I think it's a real one though P & C.

Adams coming back and with a bit of luck Jamie will give us a boost. But at the end of the day, we're where we are, I'm pretty happy with what we've shown. There's a lot to like about this group, watch and see Cool

Not just picks but favourable draw.

Under the new model, the AFL ladder will be bracketed into three groups of six:
1-6
7-12
13-18

Collingwood are currently 11th on 32 points and 114.92%.
St Kilda are currently 13th on 24 points and 90.66%

With 6 rounds left St Kilda would would need to win 3 more games than us to overcome out better percentage (or 2 games if we had some massive losses between now and the end of the season).

However, St Kilda's have a pretty tough draw: Port Adelaide, Fremantle, North Melbourne, Geelong, Sydney and West Coast.

Most likely 12th will be the lowest we'll go.

In 2010 I didn't care who we played.
