The race for the top 4

[estibador]

Cats away
Hawks home
Lions away
Port home


Hardly a "very tough" last month

You must rate us pretty bloody highly if you don't think Cats, Hawks and Power is a tough month. Other than Sydney that's every team in the top 5 in the space of 4 weeks.

We managed to lose to North at home so I'm hardly pencilling in the Hawks and Port as easy games.

I think Hawks will finish 5th.

Tougher draw than the rest and i think the injuries will take a toll eventually.

Port's looking a bit wobbly at the moment.

 

[Leg End]

Are you trying to write your responses in Haiku?

You may say that I'm a poet
Play the Saints, they'll probably throw it
Port, Hawks, you are quite the trio
But in the Granny, we'll smack Freo.

shame you didn't think this a month ago. Kind of the way with this site, week to week opinions and all.

How do you know I didn't think this a month ago?

Because, as a Whoreks fan, thinking would not be your strong suit.

I see what you did - you made an insulting pun out of the word "Hawks." Shows you're a thinking individual, unlike myself. Clever fella. Now get on ya bike, son.

You break the mould, it seems. Well spotted.

You'll win 3 if not all of them

Thanks for the compliment - I really need it. Most Bigfooty Hawks fans need an education from Brainiacs like yourself...rife within the Swans community.

North could cause an upset tonight; would be some kind of effort for the Hawks to finish top 2 if they drop tonight's game.

Are Hawthorn vulnerable?

could be the beginning of the end...

 

[ep2018]

Adelaide at AO, Sydney at home next two games, could drop both

When you suffer that amount of injuries it takes a huge toll on the squad.

 

[James44]

Hawthorn also have Fremantle at Subiaco.

 

[The Swans Blog]

This thread is going to go into meltdown over the next week.

who are they missing apart from Gibson, Rioli, McEvoy?

North Melbourne are winning without Ziebell, Grima, Wells or Tarrant

 

[JHF1870]

Looks like the so called experts forgot to note hawks had north and lost to. Adelaide at ao, freo at pattersons, syd and geelong. But turns out port are looking shaky. Now watch west coast beat sydney.hopefully some of these experts can shut up now!

Nah i mean when you have a lot of injuries the players that are out there have to work harder to plug the gaps, it happened to us last year and its happening to Hawthorn they look cooked.

Sewell and Hill out of the game to.

 

[Adz]

Hawks will miss now you'd suggest.

maybe they should have reserved all their energy from the start of the season instead of going flat out in the NAB and then again earlier in the season.

 

[estibador]

You have to laugh at the irony of North defeating all of the top 4 yet probably finishing outside the 4.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

No its just one week.

 

[JHF1870]

Hawks will miss now you'd suggest.

I did a rough prediction and by no means a certainty. Freo 18w, port 17, syd 16-17, geel 16, hawks 15.
