Preview Next 4 Games

[happy_eagle]

Hence why I said we are set
That will go a good way to winning, but we would still need to bring our usual pressure and intensity

 

[GloryGloryPerth]

Was just thinking the same thing:

Geelong - Home
St Kilda - Away (Etihad)
Fremantle - Away
Western Bulldogs - Away (Etihad)
Richmond - Home
Melbourne - Away (Etihad)
Essendon - Home
Brisbane - Away (Gabba)
Adelaide - Home

Three games at Etihad, where we beat Carlton.

First against the Saints who although Grand Finalists the last two years aren't particularly in great form.

Another against the Bulldogs who we flattened by 123 points six weeks ago. Sure they're in better form, but will they be better by 21 goals by the time we meet them?

Another against Melbourne, whose record at Etihad may actually be worse than ours.

Home games agains Adelaide, Richmond and Essendon, plus Freo in two weeks minus Sandilands.

Brisbane at the Gabba.

Discounting Geelong, there's no reason why we can't win any of the other games.

Or am I just dreaming?

Geelong - Home
St Kilda - Away (Etihad)
Fremantle - Away
Western Bulldogs - Away (Etihad)
Richmond - Home
Melbourne - Away (Etihad)
Essendon - Home
Brisbane - Away (Gabba)
Adelaide - Home

Bold = winnable games

Italic = 50/50

so 6 more wins out of 9 leaves us with 15-7 and most likely 5th or 6th position and a home final

 

[MWPP]

Could go unbeaten (I'm allowed to dream ), and could also win just 1 more game for the year (the stuff nightmares are made of..). But realistically, I think we'll lose 2 more games this year: possibly Cats (home) and Brisbane (away)....
This would give us a 16-6 record which should see us in 4th or 5th- bring on a home final

 

[Evelyn208]

Brisbane? Nah. Danger games: Geelong, Freo, Melbourne (depends on which Melbourne turn up - they are bipolar). Possibly might drop one of the mid-tier teams at Etihad (Saints or Doggies).

 

[Forward Press]

The lid will officially be off if we beat Geelong at home and the Saints away.

It's a big 'if', but I am quietly confident. All I ask for are competitive efforts, especially given we were a spoon side just last year.

 

[CursoryMercenary]

Such a favourable draw, all away matches are winnable and only a couple of tough matches.

I agree about Brisbane, that's not a more difficult game than some of the remaining games in Melbourne. Melbourne won't turn up as it's at Etihad. I think Geelong, Freo, St Kilda and Bulldogs are the toughest games left.

if and its a big IF we beat geelong i can see us winning most of the remaining games and finishing 4th-6th

 

[BlueandGoldforever]

Hopefully, go 4-0 but I can't honestly see that happening. I think 3-1 is more likely though it could go easily 2-2 depending on which St Kilda and Fremantle turn up. I still think we will finish either 15-7 or 14-8 with fifth spot ours.

 

[Alexwce]

Going to finish the season 18-4, not a bad effort!

 

[bali-dog]

Going to finish the season 18-4, not a bad effort!

last year= 4-18
this year= 18-4
......................pretty happy with that alone! (doesnt come much better)

[Biggie]

Won't be easy against the Saints, the Dogs and oh our opponent this week.

However we should win more than we lose* and play finals regardless.

Have come a long way in 2011, a freaking LOOOOOONG way



*touch wood

 

[DINEnDASH]

What'S that? 3 from 4 so far, right?

I'm really lovin this run of wins! 5 in a row

 

[Forward Press]

Lid will be off if we make it 4 from 4 and knock off the Saints at Etihad

 

[Cuzz09]

Port Adelaide - 20 point Win

Carlton - 13 point Win

Geelong - 19 point Win

St Kilda - 23 point loss

WOW!!!

That was VERY impressive!!!

Now our next 4??

Fremantle @ Subi

W.Bulldogs @ Etihad

Richmond @ Subi

Melbourne @ Etihad

Thoughts???

1 win (11-8) (Best 5th or 6th)

2 wins (12-7) (5th or 6th spot) *my prediction - think we'll lose the 2 @ Etihad.

3 wins (13-6) (Fighting for top 4)

4 wins (14-5) (Should be in top 4)

 

[Forward Press]

Lid will be off if we make it 4 from 4 and knock off the Saints at Etihad

Lid remains firmly on

Great stuff from GO EAGLES

 

[dajesmac]

Think we'll win three of the next four. Confidence is shaken a bit. Wouldn't be mighty surprised if we won all four though. Derby should not be taken lightly, Freo in some good form.

 

[groga]

The Derby and Western Bulldogs are the hardest games left win these two and we give ourselves every chance.

But lets be honest it's carltons to lose. If Essendon can do a job on them this weekend be huge!
