Round 12 - Round 19

[Mitchell Madness]

Loss to Adelaide and A loss to either of Brisbane or Collingwood

I can't believe the negativity on the board, compared to most clubs are middle saason run is a cakewalk.

We should account for Essendon, West Coast, St Kilda (who have been horrible this season) and North.

The games against the Bulldogs, Adelaide (although we did beat them by 8 goals), Collingwood (although we did beat them by 12 goals a fortnight ago) and Brisbane (beat them at the GABBA) are all 60/40 in our favour or 50-50

Fact is, we're the best team in the competition at the moment and we're playing 2 Bottom 4 sides, 1 side playing horrible football and 4 sides we've already beaten comfortably so far this season.

Mark me down for 6-2 with 2 hiccups (vs. Bulldogs/Sydney, Adelaide) along the way, possibly 3 if we get the wobbles.

Realistically, given our run home, a top 2 birth (if not the minor premiership) is there for the taking. After Brisbane we have the easiest run home of the sides vying for top 4 positions (Richmond, West Coast, Carlton)

How good has that worked out other than us having to play WC at Subiaco we have a dream run into the finals.

Realistically, from the position we are in we should really expect to go 17-5 or better (thats top 2 IMO) for the entire season.
