On exposed form we can beat the Tiger, Blew, *, WCE and Poorts anywhere. Not saying we will, but we can.
Then early days even before yesterday, beating GC in Melb wouldn't shock me.
And the other sides struggling, Saints, Pie and GW$.
Not sure how many games we have against the above to come but they're our best chance currently.
And I'm not suggesting we finish top ten, and should we not, I won't be claiming the year to be a success.

The top 10 is new
It is a big change
Arguably it is all for show as has anyone not Top 4 won like ever ?
Plus the top 6 get a week off making the wildcard winners job harder
Just an observation as to how this will actually play out in reality
in recent history if a team was out of contention they would play youngsters repair the old blokes so there were uncompetitive games at the back end
Digression: Pretty sure we gave everyone a rest before the finals a decade ago?
Short version
Recently 10th won 10/11/12
But this seems likely to increase as the spot is more valuable
I’m guessing there is an economic Scarce Resource thing going on
(Put that last bit in to scare off the Nuffies)

Indeed. Live at little.
As long as one has the emotional capacity of a proper adult to deal with it if it doesn't.

GWS Collingwood and st kilda games all feasibly 50/50 if we come switched on.
I reckon the dees get us at marvel on current form.
Tough trot to finish the year with 4 straight losses but wildcard a possibility if we win the top 3

Lot riding on good recruiting at seasons end. But yes if we can get a bit of depth and build a buffer where we are not forced to rely on the likes of ccj we will definitely be in better stead.
