Prediction The Run Home

[Soaring Magpie]

A place to discuss everything related to our final 1/3 of the season.
Our upcoming opposition, the ladder, and the chances of finals.
As we enter the final 7 weeks it’s a great time to start looking towards the end of season and our finals chances!

Hoping the losses to Eagles and Cats don't cost us a top 4 finish

I can handle getting run over by Geelong, as painful as it was to watch, But the Wet Toast one was really unacceptable. That's the one that will cost us.

We would be 4 points ahead of Carlton.
Unacceptable loss.

 

[golazo]

We can still get in the 4 if we win the games we should and snag one of the tougher ones at the end of the season

If we had Murphy at the start of the season we’d have at least an extra win on the board. Those KPF’s were smoking us in the early rounds

 

[CasuallyDressed]

I have a feeling we'll lose 1 in the next 4... dunno who. I don't think it's North though.

I don't think we'll beat Melbourne the next time around... but think we could beat both Sydney and Carlton.

I see at least 4 wins, so possibly 14-15 wins for the year.

 

[jmac70]

We will meet them and beat them.
Pies to go all the way.

Could cost us the minor premiership!

 

[Soaring Magpie]

A lot will depend on the D.Moore injury, without him it makes it difficult to go deep into September, with him and the form we have had over the last 6 weeks and anything is possible.

 

[Soaring Magpie]

When you look at the draw, there is so many teams in and around the 6-10 spots that have tough draws or play each other, for us the draw has opened up nicely and if we can capitalize on it, it holds us in good stead for a finals birth.

 

[Jim Levenstein]

No point harping about cats and eagles what if. They lost and learnt from the cats game. We have won 3 under a kick and built belief. I have this feeling we drop one of the next 4 and win 2/3 to finish. Top 4

Wins against freo at home and Melb. Swings and roundabouts

 

[domus]

We would be 4 points ahead of Carlton.
Unacceptable loss.

But we've won a few close ones too so swings and roundabouts.

 

[domus]

Funnily enough it's the lower and midtable sides we are struggling against.

 

[legendstatus]

I just hope we smash Norf and build % like everyone would expect us to do. anything short of this would be disappointing.

Let’s hope it’s to one of the 100-plus gamers then!

 

[Markfs]

maybe we can get the afl to replay the pies-eagles game...

 

[Doc1763]

We dont appear to be able to smash anybody. I'll take an 8 goal win with no more injuries.

 

[GoldenMagpie16]

Our last seven games
North Melbourne Home W (95%/5%)
Adelaide Away W (65%/35%)
Essendon Home W (70%/30%)
Port Adelaide Home W (55%/45%)
Melbourne Away L (40%/60%)
Sydney Away W (50%/50%)
Carlton Away L (50%/50%)

Realisticly, we should finish 14-8 or 15-7 depending on Injuries, Form, etc etc.
Port Adelaide, Essendon, Adelaide are considered danger games if we aren't switched on from the start.
I could see us beating Melbourne or Carlton again.

Edited so its more accurate

 

[Frankie23]

Can see us finishing 5th or 6th with our run home - would need Freo to fall over to get into the top 4 I would have thought

 

[BigVic]

We would be 4 points ahead of Carlton.
Unacceptable loss.

The loss to West Coast in April still hurts. Costed us double chance

 

[KillerMagpies]

One thing I’ve learnt. It’s one week at a time. We could finish top 4. We could totally miss out.

 

[60 Yards Out]

We would be 4 points ahead of Carlton.
Unacceptable loss.

"Unacceptable"? Should we levy some sort of sanction against the Club? Write Pendles a stiff letter?

We should advise him of how seriously displeased we were.
