Your source , yes lethers said it on the event hosted by Beva after the crows game

didnt see the event hosted by Beva ... but ok good to know

6 to go - finals in sight. 7 wins banked and 10 should get us there.

Essendon, Brisbane, Hawthorn, Melbourne, Giants and West Coast remain.

As optimistic as I am, I can not see us beating Brisbane nor WC.

I like our chances against the Hawks and the Dees.

Giants 50/50.

Makes this next game crucial - no better team to defeat to get u back on track.

Go Saints.

After Dons and Bris we have Melbourne @ TIO stadium in NT on a Saturday night. 6 day break (Melb 7).

 

[bird_man]

So we'll be playing Melbourne at Alice Springs after Brisbane.

Not sure how I feel a out that yet.

Should be a good experience for the indigenous boys and everyone else.

It's a must win game and Melbourne have played there a bit from memory

 

[The Punter]

Considering Rounds 14-16 will likely be a "footy frenzy", it means that after the Melbourne game we will likely get another 7+ day break (because we are due a bye) before the final three games against GWS, Hawthorn and West Coast. Eagles game unlikely to be in Perth.

Id rather we weren't playing them there.
They play home games there every year so gives them a slight advantage.

That Melbourne game looms as a real danger game - they are building, although with all due respect, have beaten no-one the last two weeks. They have the Pies and Dogs in the next two.

 

[blktreacle]

Seeing as we play melbourne in Alice thatll be our last "away" game. All others will be "home" games, presumably at the gabba, which will give us 8 "home" for the season

[bird_man]

I'm more worried about us making the 8 than where we can finish in the 8 at this stage so I'm hoping the Pies can beat Melboune this week.

Of the games we have left this is what I think the likelihood of winning is

Essendon - 70%
Brisbane - 25%
Melbourne - 60%
GWS - 40%
Hawthorn - 75%
WC - 30%

It may well come down to that Melbourne game in Alice to get us to 10 wins.

 

[The Punter]

West Coast are good, but they aren't the same proposition away from Perth and away from a sizeable crowd. And GWS are unreliable.

I'm only writing off the Brisbane game.

 

[St Plugger]

Of the games we have left this is what I think the likelihood of winning is
Essendon - 70%
Brisbane - 25%
Melbourne - 60%
GWS - 40%
Hawthorn - 75%
WC - 30%

Essendon - 60%. We always have trouble against them, poor or otherwise.
Brisbane - 40%. We match up OK, but it's their home ground.
Melbourne - 85%. Ha Ha. Our Bunnies!
GWS - 40%. Team of champs, Cameron etc. Stop 1 or 2 and we'll take them.
Hawthorn - 70%. On the escalators, going down.
WC - 40%. Not at home, so a better chance than in the West.

Gawn's apparently got a PCL strain. Hopefully it keeps him out at least for Round 14.

 

[bird_man]

Hannebery is back running. He'll join the rest of the group in the next few weeks.

Roughly will be on the same flight apparently which us great news.

 

[bird_man]

Gawn's apparently got a PCL strain. Hopefully it keeps him out at least for Round 14.

Hes a chance to play this week apparently so he should be right by then unfortunately.

Hopefully he's not at his best though.

 

[Ducky Tie]

The Dees match is going to be a big one. If we win that, we should make finals. Would mean the Dees have to win five of their other six remaining games I think. Lose it, and they might only need to win 3/6 depending on percentage.

Just hoping it niggles on for a few more weeks.

 

[BrutThough]

And RD 18 is v GWS but time/venue hasn't been confirmed yet.

 

[bird_man]

Hopefully we can sow up finals with wins over Bombers, Demons and Hawks before West Coast who we pay off a 4 day break.

 

[The Punter]

As far as the fixture is concerned: no excuses.

 

[The Punter]

Hopefully we can sow up finals with wins over Bombers, Demons and Hawks before West Coast who we pay off a 4 day break.

At least the break is the same for both clubs.

 

[Ducky Tie]

We really couldn't have hoped for a better fixture than what we have.

The must win games from this point are Essendon and Hawthorn. We have multiple days more rest for each of them.

Eagles at the Gabba is a massive bonus. Four day turn arounds for both teams. Not expecting anything from that game but at least we don't have to go to Perth.

If we win the two we should, we'll probably make finals. Really should win one of the Demons/GWS game as well. We'll also have two days more rest than GWS.

If we don't make finals from here, it'll only be on us.

 

[Diehard Saint]

Hopefully we can sow up finals with wins over Bombers, Demons and Hawks before West Coast who we pay off a 4 day break.

West Coast play us off a four day break as well.
Not a bad fixture for us at all.

 

[BrutThough]

Hopefully we can sow up finals with wins over Bombers, Demons and Hawks before West Coast who we pay off a 4 day break.

West Coast have two 4 day breaks, a 5 day break then a 4 day break to play us.
An absolute killer for them.

 

[Munga]

And RD 18 is v GWS but time/venue hasn't been confirmed yet.

So we have a bye to work with but they still give us a four day break against the Eagles?!! That's poor.
