Get a good start and crush their belief early and we’ll be right. Don’t want them hanging around 3/4 time.

No easy games for us this year. It just seems like every team we come up against has this extra reason to win when they come up against us. The outside noise in the lead up to our games just goes to show how impressive our wins have been.

I think that might just be Blitz’s perspective on things.

Do or die for their season, they will be throwing everything at us.

4 game winning streak for us

This is definitely a 50/50 game

Purple army will be out in force

Both sides woeful in rainy conditions

Geez Reid is a giant.

But the stats show that we’re sh*thouse…

All seriousness I like the fact that we’re playing teams that have that extra motivation…

This same ■■■■ 4 weeks in a row before they play us

Meh.

We were complaining about getting Richmond just after they came good again and beat Geelong

I’d take an out of form side under pressure any day of the week

West coast had just been belted by Hawthorn, talk of Simpson needing personal leave during the week, they came out and threw everything at us.

Norf always set themselves for us like it’s a grand final

Fark Carlton, pressure building on coach, talk fractures within the opposing group, board member sacked

And now Freo…

Well we get port the week after and everyone is praising them endlessly

I’d prefer an average side feeling good about itself but ultimately it doesn’t matter. You just have to beat who is in front of you and that is what Scott is trying to build an understanding of.

Stick to the system, bring your best effort, and you get what you deserve…

Scott is certainly not ruminating on this sort of stuff which reassures me even though I’m grizzling about it.

The point though is that there is a little more merit in our recent wins than we are getting credit for.

The first 3 are bottom 4 sides, I don’t think we were that unlucky.

NM played well.

The other two sides were absolute garbage and whatever narrative there is had no impact. We took care of WCE fairly easily, and beat FARK CARLTON in 15 mins of footy. It’s good we won them but we should be winning them.

We are gradually moving from being the hunter to becoming the hunted.

That’s what happens when teams strive, improve and become leaders of the action. We are not quite there yet but; give us another 12 to 18 months. If we can continue to improve, that’s where we will be. Others are watching us. Go Bombers.

Good. I hope Freo come out on fire against us. Let’s play them and beat them at their best.

Heartily concur. Too many blitzers are too nervous.
