The Next 6 Weeks

[shimaburnsgrieg]

5-6 with a % close to 100% is very much in the 'pass/we have been ok' category.

A couple of shit the pants games, a couple of very good games and a fair bit of meh in between.

The post bye 12 game period can be broken into 3 groups of 4 games each.

Part 1 - Freo, WC, Rich and *. This has to be 3-1 to be a pass.

Part 2 - PA, Coll, Melb, Saints. This is the most important 4 game block period for us for the season - probably since 2020. Playing all the teams around us consecutively with the last 3 of them at Marvel. 2-2 is absolute minimum here for a pass. 3-4 wins not out of the question - but likewise 3-4 losses not out of the question either.

Part 3 - Hawks, Dogs, Cats, Swans. A very rough end to the season where 0-4 will still be a pass as long we don't throw in the towel (which we have done in previous years.)

That would make it a 10W-13L season which we would consider as an overall pass. The Part 2 block of games above (Rounds 17 thru 20) will however be the key to how we view our season.

Yeap I think we should get 10 to 11 wins for the year all being well which is a pass for me. I wanted 8 min

Good breakdown.

The Part 2 block has some good ol' fashioned 8 point games in there.

So when we beat Freo, WCE, Rich, Ess, PA, Coll, Melb & Saints, that will be 9 in a row and 14 wins???

Then we are clamoring with the other Contenders for Top 2, 4 and 6 positions. What's the verdict there? 2-2 agst Geel, Haw, Dogs and Sydney. Does the 16 wins get us Top 4?

Our poor percentage could be a factor.

we're still a young(ish) team prone to lapses in games or across matches. When was the last time we won 3 in a row, let alone 9?

Prompted myself to go look it up, it was 2019, versus Gold Coast, Richmond, Bulldogs. We also did it in 2018, and had the 9 in a row to start the 2016 season. Comparatively, it was a golden era, though we achieved nothing in note...

You know what mate, the more resistance I get the more I’m believing. North by 50 every week from here and then percentage won't be a problem either!
