Looks like we'll have to win both our remaining games to make Top 4. 

Some might say you make your own luck in this game, but JUH kicking 5.0 against us, Collingwood kicking 15.4 last night , and barely any other results going our way recently have made things tricky.

With all that said, stumbling into September, finishing 5th and then making a GF is still very much possible. That's what the Dogs did last year.

You can see how Geelongs small and half forwards push up all the way to the contest  and then attack in a wave of half back. It’s the same way Pies sling shot. 

This is their blueprint I think you need to stop their out number at the contest to have a crack at winning. It’s a modified version of the Richmond game plan.

The Saints v Cats qtr time score line is pretty much what ours should have been at qtr time. Credit to the Cats they know how to score when they have momentum.

I’m with you BDA. Why voluntarily watch Geelong dole out a hiding. 
But there is ONE good thing about  this weekend of footy… Essendon lost. And that’s never a bad thing. 😁

I’m not so bloody minded

i don’t care who wins as long as we win

Um so if Sydney and Brisbane win by enough we slip to 5th correct?

Sounds like a multi worth having given the way things have gone for us this year ie relying on  others as we continue to merde Le bed

Same. But when we don’t win, watching the likes of Essendon win makes it more painful.

Wow losing to Dogs put our form into perspective. Dogs a putrid today. It amazing how some teams lift against us.

Yes, it happens to all existing premiers, to anyone on top at the time.  plus the hardest draw.

You’ll get a good price for Sydney to win by 34 and Brisbane to win by 86.

That only works out if the opposition do not score. ie for every goal North scores Swan need to score extra 8 points.

Amazing. Frees only 18 - 14 in favour of Footscray.  Bevo will have to complain to HQ.

We have stuffed up OUR OWN chances fot=r a top 2 finish with inept goal kicking more than anything else.  

IF the coaching team don't review this and work hard on it in the offseason then it will continue unabated, and cost us again.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
