I tell you after yesterdays result, the Power could be the team to steal the Roos top 8 spot. But their run home is not easy (Giants, Swans & Crows to come).
Seems like the Dees fans are giving themselves a chance too. But their run home is super difficult and they wont be able to make up the 2 game difference, and thats if they beat St Kilda today.
We are probably in the same boat as the Demons. But it all starts with next Fridays game. Basically we cannot lose a single game and North have to drop most. A win yesterday against the Crows would have been huge.
Its almost ludicrous to think we'd go the next 6 weeks without a loss.
Ultimately, the early losses to St Kilda, Carlton and Melbourne will be the difference between top 8 and bottom 8. _________________ A Goal Saved Is 2 Goals Earned! |

Our chance's as slim as they were took a downward curve in Adelaide and
now we face North.
On their form and our form we have excellent chance to gain that lost ground
But waiting and season's end --the Hawks !!!!!!
No I dont see September action in 2016 but we must see I some diligent and
clever planning in the football department as hanging up ya boots 1st week of September must stop _________________ I'm not arguing--just explaining why i am right |

Port the only team that can sneak in now. And that has also become unlikely. Sorry Power, a Pies win would have been a great result for you.
Anyway, GWS will be getting a top ten pick from us now. Im still happy for getting Treloar, but many of us were expecting a higher finish on the ladder. I think we could have done a little bit better in that deal, by maybe getting a later pick from GWS as well.
We showed great signs against GWS and the Crows, but have been smashed back down to Earth by the Roos.
It would have been nice to sneak in and maybe win a final, but when you're losing games early on to Melbourne, St Kilda and Carlton, any kind of mid season lift is meaningless.
We need to make some brave choices in the offseason. A 4th year of missing finals would be a disaster. A huge fkn disaster. This is a club who played in 10 finals series in 12 years from 2002-2013. We've now missed the past three finals series.
