Pick 2 trade deal conspiracy theorists won't know what to do with themselves

Not to get ahead of myself but if we beat WCE, Sydney, and Carlton and Adelaide drop a game to Carlton or the Dogs we'll be equal (on ladder points) with them heading into our game in Round 17.

Yeah I'm getting ahead of myself.

Just a bit. We need to knock over the Eagles somehow this week first.

Settle. Just look at this week, if port lose and we win we go 4th.

I don't think I made the irony in my post clear enough

Tongue, cheek, etc

Doesn't that table just show it underrates the kicking of Lester/Tomlinson/Plowman and over rate Tyson/Astbury/Prestia?

 

[Topkent]

I tell ya what if at the start of the season someone said Hogan Jones Hibberd Gawn Lewis would miss 3+games each I'd have thought the club would fall apart.

 

[TheCount]

I just saw on afl.com.au's Friday quiz that last week no player kicked more than 3 goals, the last time that happened was 1964 ... so that is very clearly a sign of things to come!

A glorious victory and then a half decade of near-fatal farce?

 

[TheCount]

A glorious victory and then a half century of near-fatal farce?

Fixed

To be honest, I'd take that deal. I just want one flag.

 

[saj_21]

The main thing for us is to keep winning, if the pies and blues get up this week and we win I think that puts a game clear in 4th?

But if we lose we are right in amongst the pack with all those sides. It's a crazy tight season this year. Only 2 games and percentage off 4th and 16th.

Never gets old. The physio dreaming of the cup is my fav.

Yup. Only way we are safe is if we keep winning.

 

[Headless]

Just watched a video on Hawthorn 2008.

If Melbourne wins a flag in my lifetime, I seriously can't imagine the feeling.

Like, the sheer euphoria - from where we've come from - I just can't imagine it.

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

That's why we have to aim for top four IMO. Top 8 isn't good enough, all the sides between 5 and 12 are more or less at the same standard and if we want to be the best we need to be a step above

Tonight is a tough game on the road without Watts but next week is an absolute must win v Sydney at the MCG. No excuses. I'm confident about both

Post hungover and forget 45 years of shite...
I need to drink more

 

[Kickin Goals]

Lids off, I'm backing you guys in for top four. Great win enjoy!

 

[Simon_Says]

think ive gone into cardiac arrest lads (And laddesses!)
This feeling is unreal, i was hystericall with 4 mins left, pulling my hair out (Figuritivly speaking, dont have much hair to pull out with my hairline)

This win has induced some kind of high, i never want to come down from ahhhhh

 

[Tempy Tiger]

Biffinator you were spot on when you said that our club's DNA has changed. We are now a very tough, hard, never say die outfit. The contrast could not be more marked. It would make for a fascinating study as to how they achieved this massive cultural change. How did it happen? Who drove it? Was it PJ or Roos? Is it JT and the type of players we've recruited?

It's just been an incredible transformation. I am so thankful. Our trademark used to be that we were the softest team in the comp. Now we are the hardest.

 

[Tempy Tiger]

And how's our depth now?! Once Joel Smith is back our defence could be:

B. Nev OMac Smith
HB. Hibberd Frost Hunt

That's exceptional I reckon. So much pace and rebound with Smith, Hunt, Frost and Hibberd. As back ups we have Salem, Melksham, Harmes, Lewis, Jones, White who can all play in defence.
