That's the key. If we win all our home games then we only need to win half of our away games to be top four.
Exactly - so we need to beat WCE at least once a season. It has nothing to do with it being WCE, more to do with the yearly double up and the number of wins required for finals.
People here who come in talking about not caring about beating WCE and they only want to win a flag, seem to miss the point that teams who win flags beat most teams they play in their premiership winning season/s.
