Could the lid be off after this weeks game?

You guys will win enough games to overtake either Carlton or Hawthorn in the Top 4.

Both teams have to play each other as well as travel to Perth to play the Dockers.

Hawks injuries are as bad as Fremantles and they MIGHT be the most vulnerable BUT I think Carlton have the tougher fixture having to play Collingwood, Freo (away), Hawthorn, North (who will push them at Etihad in their one and only Friday night home game) and us (who love nothing more than to upset the Blues).

Think you will win majority of your away games. Brissie at the Gabba won't concern you at all and Melbourne at Etihad is a certainty. If you can knock off one of the Dogs or Saints at Etihad you'll sew up a Top 4 finish and possibly even 3rd.

HOPEFULLY it leaves Carlton 5th to play Essendon 8th in a first up final. :p

i think if we continued on our merry way after the first half and smashed them, then yes it would've been off.

the 2nd half illustrated that we're still a bit off in terms of being over-powered by a team that had too much for us. we held on, but only just.

because of this, i think you could say the lid is just slightly still affixed to whatever type of object this excitement containing instrument is.

We beat Geelong the week after their first loss for the year coming off the bye. Lids off. I'm expecting no less than a Mike Sheahan feature article on us.

I can't describe how good it was to get a bit of atmosphere back at our games! The crowd was incredible tonight in comparison to the shit that's been served up so far this year.

Without getting ahead of myself, the excitement leaving the ground tonight felt like it did in 05-07.
