Scape Goat The Lid: Where is it at?

[The King!]

Longmire would put the lid back in defence

 

[RilesMacca]

The lid cant be taken off, but at least the lid shows great intent

 

[Cadsky]

The lid was smashed into a million pieces, but I've been super gluing it back together.

This weekend will define our season, not just with our game, but Dogs v Tigers, Blues v Saints and Port v Cats. If Port, Tigers, and Blues win, along with us, then I'm pretty sure we'd be in the 8 at the end of the round? And then it's quite literally in our hands. If any of those don't happen it's going to be pretty tough.

Regardless of other results, 3 more wins pretty much guarantees us finals.

But we’re outsiders in 3 of the 4 remaining games.

I'd back us to beat GCS and Crows, and then 50/50 with Giants. Dees will depend on what they have to play for. Could be a home final on the line for them.

I'm least confident about the Crows. I hear/see them almost every week & may be inundated with all the positive Crows vibes coming from the media over here (meanwhile they are sharpening the knives for a Port choke)... But the Crows have had a few very close losses to quality opposition. They are playing a style which could expose us too... Tex has been smashing sides.

I'm weary of them needing to win for finals, playing at home, on the back of some momentum... definition of a danger game imo.

is planning to shit on our lid. He could do it too. I'm just waiting for the inevitable loss.

 

[GoTheSwannies]

If we get over GWS I'm pretty confident of our finals chances. But with GWS, Adelaide and Melbourne ahead of us it's going ro be a tough road. GC seem to be peaking at the wrong time as well (as far as we're concerned).

Essendon was the easiest opponent of our remaining 5, and that went down to the wire.

The lid is OFF!!!

Collingwood - exposed as crap
Port - diabolical (sack Hinkley!)
Lions - poo away from home
Melbourne - imploding
St Kilda - lol
Bravedogs - corrupt umps only hope
GWS - brushed aside
Geelong - the cliff has arrived
Carlton - it’s Carlton

The only form team: SYDNEY!

I repeat: THE LID IS OFF

(for a week)

 

[SSwans2011]

Hmmmm, the lid seems to have mysteriously gone missing. Who used it last?

 

[mtooler]

The lid is still welded shut for mine.

 

[bloodsbigot]

The comp is wide open. A very, very good chance a team from outside the 4 can win it. I'm not impressed by the perennial flukes Collingwood at all. Port's percentage speaks volumes about how crap they are.

Ajar for me. If we can snag the Adelaide game I reckon I'll make a switch to the lid being off.

 

[BarneyBent]

We're actually still a top 4 chance. Would need the Lions to lose every game from here, including today's, and some other results to fall our way. And we'd obviously need to win every game. But it's possible!

Man wouldn't that be something. Haha.

 

[Mister B]

The water has hit a rolling boil and the lid is starting to rattle a little.

Why Brisbane? Not backing North to get up against Melbourne?

 

[BarneyBent]

Actually no, because that would mean Carlton getting an extra win which puts them in the box seat for top 4. Technically it could happen, but IMO the Brisbane implosion scenario relies on fewer other results going our way.

 

[Tedeski]

The lid is with Buddy.
He took it off when he left the building.

i managed to prise mine off but it hit me in the face and now my nose is bleeding and i think i cracked a tooth ...

Occasionally a perfect post emerges on big footy

 

[SSwans2011]

Lid felt a little tight today. I bashed it on a table at half-time and was able to loosen it up a bit though.

My hands are tired, but with some assistance I'm sure it can be pried open.

 

[Dubai Quacker]

Dermott has declared the lid to be off.

 

[swanssince2002]

So tempted to book a hotel before the prices skyrocket closer to GF day, should I or shouldnt I with this sort of form...

Lid is still tight but I have put my hands on it all of a sudden... maybe after the Adelaide game away from home I will start opening it. If we win that... tip my cap to the whole team.

 

[mtooler]

We look very unconvincing still. We will be fairly lucky to get out of Week 1 of finals if we get there.
