Not getting a head of myself, but just looking forward a few games. Before last nights game SEN had the "form" ladder for the last 4 weeks and we were 4th. After the win, we will at least stay there or could move to 3rd.

Next three games are at the G - Swans, Etihad - Freo, and the G - North, and with our form very good, and 2 of those winnable, we could end up playing the Pies with 5 wins from the last 7.

If that’s the way it works out, how big will this game be? Will it be our biggest since our Finals campaign with Frawley? Not talking a numbers game like Cuz first game, but as a team. It will be MASSIVE. If we do go in with this form, i would say at least 85K

You don't think we can win all 3? :cool:
Swans will be the hardest but I'd back us against Freo and North

i think we will lose the majority of our games we have left, including the sydney game and against north etc. we can beat adelaide and port.

i HOPE we win the majority of the games though, I'm just trying to be realistic and keep level headed so I don't get disappointed if we get demolished

We have played surprisingly few really meaningful games V Collingwood in the years since attendances really exploded in the 90s. There has rarely been much at stake and rarely have both gone into the game in form but of course any Tigers VS Magpies with one in top 4 and the other with wind in its sails would be an 80,000 blockbuster.

That said for me it is just another game at the moment and the important one is Sydney.

so, we'll be 7-10 after the Pies game with a fair run home incl Dees and Weagles. How many do we need for finals?

Hope we get Pies in the prelim, then on GF day anything can happen.

;)

and if the AFL have there way you would be locked out of finals at that round next year (rnd17) being bottom 6, despite mathematically being still in the hunt.

See how stupid there conference system is...

Swans, Freo and North are all going to be tough games...The only one I can see us getting over the line on is North.
Swans will be coming of a tough one againsed the Pies, and we will be fresh. (and ultra confident)

We pushed Freo at Subi when we didnt have our structures right. This is the one im looking forward to seeing,

And North to me is an unknown.

And the biggie, we will lift regardless againsed the Pies. Still unlikely of a win, but anything is possible.
