SaberFang 7,151 Posted July 15, 2018 Posted July 15, 2018 I'm less concerned about top 4 now. We had that chance and blew it. Far more concerned about finals itself, which that loss goes some way to helping. Besides, it's just so, so good to see Norf lose. Scott is a massive [censored]. 1 Quote
Diamond_Jim 12,773 Posted July 15, 2018 Posted July 15, 2018 looking at that ladder is painful. We'd be on top if we had beaten Port, Geelong and Saints !! 2 2 Quote

Far more concerned about finals itself, which that loss goes some way to helping. Besides, it's just so, so good to see Norf lose. Scott is a massive [censored]. Agreed. At any rate, Collingwood, Port and Sydney all have tough runs home (Port's gets even tougher if they somehow can't beat Fremantle today): Collingwood - North, Richmond, Sydney (away), Brisbane, Port, Fremantle (away) Port - GWS, Dogs (Ballarat), Adelaide, West Coast, Collingwood (away), Essendon Sydney - GC, Essendon (away), Collingwood, us (away), GWS (away), Hawthorn Of course, our run home is just as hard, but our destiny remains in our hands. And you never know, with those three sides having runs home like that, if we can outperform what we all think we're going to achieve (i.e. we get past 13 wins), we could go up on the ladder (I doubt it, personally). 2 Quote

darkhorse72 1,943 Posted July 15, 2018 Posted July 15, 2018 (edited) Freo/port - both are woeful, will the lose of Gray inspire or stop Port? Edited July 15, 2018 by Darkhorse72 Quote
darkhorse72 1,943 Posted July 15, 2018 Posted July 15, 2018 (edited) Freo may make it an almost perfect weekend, not for my tipping though Edited July 15, 2018 by Darkhorse72 1 1 Quote
Engorged Onion 10,226 Posted July 15, 2018 Posted July 15, 2018 (edited) I assume there will be some inevitable posts re: 'how did we lose to port' - similarly those who thought the first half against the dogs were awful. To me - this game/ the cats loss, richmonds loss, hawthorn etc - shows how close the competition is, and how mere percentages 'off your game' or at times 'luck' means you win, or get smashed... It's elite sport, it's tough and the margins are always small... AND - I really like what Roos, Goodwin and PJ et al, are building towards...and it may not be 2018...
