Well 42% of people are obviously not thinking straight.

I've got news for those people. With West Coast's loss tonight we are three games + percentage (I know right?) clear with only six games to go. We will beat GWS, meaning that we almost only have to win one of the remaining five.

Seriously, get a grip people.

Carlton is only 2 games behind us.
 
If we only win one more game for the year (unlikely), then we will miss the eight according to my ladder predictor.

If we lose all three games to Essendon, Hawthorn and Sydney as expected but beat both West Coast and North Melbourne, we'll play Richmond.

If we lose of those games to West Coast or North Melbourne we will finish 8th and play Sydney/Fremantle away...

This is assuming we beat GWS first...

some of u got a negative attitude...fk looking for draft picks always go for best possible result.

gold coast was a severe fk up but a good wake up call

collingwood to beat gws, essendon, eagles and roos

and prey u get richmond, carlton or port first round
 
We will finish 7th and play Richmond in the fastest selling out final of the decade.

If we finish 10th we get a single digit pick, if we finish 7th we get a double digit pick. Single digit picks look better, and they are lower.
OK, for mine, if it's a deep draft, we should still be able to make something out of pick 12/13 vs pick 9/10, and it's hard to see us sliding any lower than 10th / 11th on the ladder, were we to tank - which could have an adverse Impact on the playing group. But just my opinion.

We can't fall lower then 10th.

Falling to tenth on the ladder in a single season isn't going to hurt the long term of our player group or culture, we fell a lot harder in 04 and 05.

In fact putting the players carrying injuries off to surgery and allowing everyone to come back fresh in pre-season and having a bigger pre season will allow us to hit the ground running in 2014.

Also this allows young players to get games who wouldn't normally showing where they need to get to over pre-season.
