Toast It's the finals countdown - 2021

[Heeney2Franklin]

I think we'll win another 14. I agree with you, finals this year

I miss swansfan51 annual prediction of 14-17 wins then collapse in finals.

Look Runny, I am the most out there optimist on the face of the earth, the original glass half full all the time type and, to quote BT, boy oh boy am I ready to believe

BUT

I'm also a bit on the superstitious side.
We need to keep that lid firmly on the pot for another few weeks at least.

i'll ... er ... mind the pot ...

Yeah nah look it’s an old cliche but we’re just taking it one week at a time. We’re just looking to play our roles, from Buddy to the emergency sub, there are no egos in this team.

The Giants are a super club and they just knocked off a great Collingwood team so there are no easy games. If we trust our brand and follow our processes and just have a real crack the rest will sort itself out hopefully.

If we tackle and apply pressure that’s all it really is. It’s a simple game and we try not to look beyond those basic things but if we keep tackling and really pressuring the man then we’ll hopefully win more than we lose.

It’s a really fantastic group of boys and Pykey is great and Horse is great mate and the medical staff is great so yeah look it’s great and we’re undefeated so it looks great right now but there are no easy games as I said so we’ll just take it one week at a time because that’s all you can do.

You don’t want to look any further ahead than the next game because you could lose the next four but yeah the boys are flying so hopefully we can be competitive against a super Giants team this weekend.

What a fun thread concept. Here are my predictions.

Round 5 vs GWS (SCG)
Round 6 vs Gold Coast (Met)
Round 7 vs Geelong (SCG)
Round 8 vs Melbourne (MCG)
Round 9 vs Collingwood (SCG)
Round 10 vs Fremantle (O)
Round 11 vs Carlton (SCG)
Round 12 vs St Kilda (Marv)
Round 13 vs Hawthorn (SCG)
Round 15 vs Port Adelaide (AO)
Round 16 vs West Coast (SCG)
Round 17 vs Bulldogs (Marv)
Round 18 vs GWS (GIANTS)
Round 19 vs Fremantle (SCG)
Round 20 vs Essendon (Marv)
Round 21 vs St Kilda (SCG)
Round 22 vs North Melbourne (Marv)
Round 23 vs Gold Coast (SCG)

Wins - 0
Losses - 18

Meaning we end up with 4 wins in total which nets us our first wooden spoon in 27 years because Bigfooty is all-powerful and penalises the early crow.

Are you colour blind?

I've misplaced my copy of the St Kilda DVD The Winning Streak. Did I leave it here?

Searched high and low for Saints relevance/streak but could not find!

North started 10-1 in 2016 they finished 12-10 and just made the 8.

The moon is more likely to get a 2nd flag than St.Kilda.

This thread won’t end well ...

This is exactly where my mind went. They were 9-0 before coming against us

They were also routinely mocked on the mainboard as being the worst 9-0 team in AFL history.

Yeah, but the 2017 Richmond team were mocked as the worst premiership team of the last 20 years on the main board too

not sure citing 'the main board' as any kind arbiter on anything is of much worth ...

Only when it agrees with me.

Daft thread, but I'm for keeping it now, just as a reminder not to get ahead of ourselves.

Aye.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

WE will not finish top 4 just setting yourself up with disappointment unrealistic expectations.

If things go well we might be a sneaky chance of finishing in the bottom half of the 8 which would be terrific result but as you can see how things change in 1 week..

Competition sucks just as much tbh. The coaching staff will make the adjustments

Let this be a lesson folks. The players do nothing other than be pushed around by the telekinetic powers of our posts, it's Bigfooty that truly determines footy results.

We were doomed this week from the outset when this thread was made.

I think its important to be balanced and avoid disappointment.
