Dunno if itās lid off per se but I honestly think we will make finals from here. If we can pinch a game off the Tigers, could be ripe tomorrow night, itāll go a long way to ensuring it. Nobody is more wary of our propensity to drop games we should win but looking ahead, we SHOULD beat Lions, Suns, Saints & Freo here. That gives us 8. We will need to beat th teams around us to have a shot, so beating hawks, pies, Port & Roos should get us there. Then we have Tigers x 2, Eagles & Swans. Walking a tightrope, maybe but the next five games will likely determine if we make it. If we do make it, we likely go in with some momentum, which IMO we didnāt have as we struggled pretty badly for last few matches. Must keep this momentum we have going for as long as possible but the signs are there that weāre figuring it out.
If we win it puts finals back on the table but also breaks the Tigers massive MCG winning streak it will be a statement. But even if we lose, so long as we donāt revert back to our early season form but fight it out and make them play to their absolute best to put us away it will go a long way towards putting confidence back in our team.
