I know it means absolutely nothing after round 1..

But its been a bloody long time since we've been in the top 4!

Maybe it'll be two weeks in a row?

Carn the dees!

I reckon we're a chance to make finals this year

Just play the effin' finals next next week!

First time since Round 21, 2006!

Rnd 1 teams that looked good for the whole game were Port, Hawks and Freemantle. No other winners were totally convincing. On that basis we can win a few games previously marked down as losses.

Top 4 at seasons end, No. Knocking on the door of the 8, Yes!! Go Dees.

GWS have to be considered an easier opponent that Gold Coast. We're in with a decent chance next week.

Nope. Not that it matters, but they beat them in nab challenge, and have a far better midfield and forward line, in my opinion.

And we will have Vince and Dawes back!

GWS are pretty solid favourites though which is surprising.

That game was like our season opener for the past 3 seasons.

I think the top 8's pretty settled.

'absolutely nothing' is not quite right.. it means we performed better than 14 clubs in the first outing. Our opponent was not all that flash though if we're being honest

Next week: A real chance to get back-to-back wins for the first time since r13/14, 2011

Shutting down Cameron and Ward are the keys to next week

When was the last time we were inside the 8 at the end of a round ? I'd be guessing about round 5-6 2011 ?

We were last in the top 4 in Round 21, 2006, after beating North by 50 points at the G (our most recent win against them) and drawing with Geelong in Geelong (our most recent non-loss to Geelong).

We then got belted by Adelaide in Adelaide (when Bartram got injured IIRC?) to slip out of the top 4, putting us 7th and in the Elimination Final against St Kilda.

top 8 I dunno

Enjoy the good times, but remember the first 6 rounds mean Jack Shite.

are the wins worth less than 4 premiership points or something

With a win next week we will be in the 8 for a while to come. This will be good for the mindset of the players and club, not to mention the long suffering supporters. When players see the team in the 8 week after week this can only be a good thing.

We should never consider any opponent easy. We have no right to that mindset.

Go up to Canberra, secure 4 points, nobody get reported & come home.

he didn't say that at all, he said we're in with a decent chance

he didn't say that at all, he said we're in with a decent chance

he also said GW$ should be an easier opponent than the $un$

Start thinking like that and we get rolled.

It's not at the MCG. Makes it a tougher assignment

We must erase the soft MFC underbelly

Stop thinking the job is done.

So many times this club has lost the "easy" games in the past
