We must be the only team that doesn’t win these 50/50 frees in front of goals. Even though I think some of ours are much more than 50/50…

Forgot it was Pendles' 400th. Don't think the stars could align any better for the Pies. If we can't get up for Cripps' 200th we sure as s**t won't get up for this.
I think people forget how even this competition is sometimes. You’re never as good as you think you’re going and never as bad either. Look at what sydney is getting today. A belting. If you don’t have your best players all firing and limited injuries you can get touched up by any of the top 10-12 sides. Collingwood have had injuries for most of the year and look how they’ve fallen away. They won the premiership last year in case anyone has forgotten.
Unfortunately we don’t have our best side out there and we’re battered and bruised leading into the end of the year. The biggest thing you need in AFL is luck. Nothing more nothing less.
This year has shown the AFLs equalisation model in all its glory. There’s no stand out teams. All teams apart from the bottom 3 are hard to beat and all you need to do to see that fact is look at the percentage of every side other than the bottom 3 - it is over 100 except for Essendon which is 95. It’s insane and as each club has now worked out the science of list management/high performance/strategy etc you’ll see this every year moving forward. There’ll only be 2 or 3 clubs rebuilding and everybody else will be around the mark.
Get used to this.
what the **** did we do to JHF.

Swans fans leaving like it's 1993
Swans have lost 4 of their last 5, I guess THEY have, issues, too
They 100% do as do we. Lions and Dogs definitely the IN FORM teams at the moment.
We need to be in that posiion come September.

Hard to be optimistic given how shit we’ve been lately….
….but all of a sudden finishing 4th and playing Swans at the SCG doesn’t look like a death sentence.

WB best % after swans
1 game off 4th
It's in our hands
We have technically the easiest run home, win all 4 and we can't be moved and may even get to 2nd
Players need to do what they are paid to do and get it done

Absolutely, finding form at the right time of the season is critical
Easiest run home ? I don’t agree … not without TDK
Hawks are back, which does not thrill me one bit.
Wish I knew who half of them are.
