Of course we should try and play to our potential and thrash the eagles to get that % and hope for a top 2 finish, yet if that doesn’t happen I would prefer to play swans rather than Port or GWS away….
But want to avoid Brisbane in a semi too…..
so many permutations….
Hopefully, we're done with the selection experimentation (specifically Duncan as a sub) - need our best team playing this week we anticipate will be the one that lines up in week 1 of the finals
I’d also rather Port than either of the Sydney teams… assuming we don’t get 2nd and are playing away.Something is telling me we need to get Port Adelaide as I think they are feeling the pressure as a club and we can seize on that.
We also play the Adelaide oval well.
I expect retirements will be announced after the end of our finals campaign. Too distracting if just before finals.
Hoyney on SEN says if Stewart has been tagged we are 0-6 and when not tagged we are 12-2. Ross the boss had stocker on him from the 2nd quarter and Stewart had 12 disposals…
If you’re an opposition club just tag Stewart….. but some don’t .
We get scored heavily against when Stewart has been tagged according to Hoyney….
Scott has pulled the Stewart to midfield shift , but we need more than that and the other defenders need to get organized.
Hoyney also says cats most vulnerable team to go out in straight sets.
With McGovern + Barrass + Ryan out for WC + talk of other senior players but not confirmed yet... I fully expect us to push a 100+ point W.
2nd spot on the ladder is certainly a possibility. We really should be smashing this team on our home deck easily as we have all to play for and they have packed it in and are playing kids.
Also... man it's a bummer Hawkins (probably) won't play.... With Gov + Barrass out, I'd expect us to feed Hawk the goals he needed to get to 800.... even if he is half-fit.
I forgot about the coach , who’s the caretaker coach for the eagles?Let's just win and win well this week. Reg and Tom's final games at KP (one likely playing).
Shitting on the Eagles is always fun and it seems touch wood the new coach bounce has stopped.
True. I am trying to work out whether we want to get 2nd or 4th? Logic says 2nd as we play week 1 at home…With McGovern + Barrass + Ryan out for WC + talk of other senior players but not confirmed yet... I fully expect us to push a 100+ point W.

2nd by the length of the Flemington straight.True. I am trying to work out whether we want to get 2nd or 4th? Logic says 2nd as we play week 1 at home…
Played two qualifying finals against Port at Adelaide Oval recently (2020 and 2021). Neither went well.Something is telling me we need to get Port Adelaide as I think they are feeling the pressure as a club and we can seize on that.
We also play the Adelaide oval well.
I think that's an understatement. And they didn't have the midfield depth then that they possess now.Played two qualifying finals against Port at Adelaide Oval recently (2020 and 2021). Neither went well.
Brisbane are better than both hawks and dogs….. we want to avoid Brisbane. Tell me which top 6 teams the hawks have beaten in their hot run of form since the bye…True. I am trying to work out whether we want to get 2nd or 4th? Logic says 2nd as we play week 1 at home…
But I think we might match up better against Sydney vs Port or GWS (who are also in better form than Sydney?). also if we lose week 1 from 4th we will likely play Brisbane at MCG whereas if we lose from 2nd or 3rd we play Bulldogs or Hawthorn…
