There is no team in the 8 with a finals record that could make them confident. Collingwood have as good a recent finals record as anyone. If finals are a different game, as the cliché goes, then Collingwood can play that game. Adelaide have yet to prove they can and they would be the favourites except for any match between them and West Coast. If West Coast finish second they don’t meet until the GF and West Coast would be favoured to get that far with home finals. Adelaide and West Coast have to be the favoured grand finalists with the betting for the game pretty even. St. Kilda, Melbourne, Collingwood and Sydney all have some claims but IMO Sydney aren’t up to it this year. As for Collingwood’s chances, I don’t think we can beat either Adelaide or West Coast at their home but we can beat anyone at the G in September. Of course the GF is a different matter before anyone states the obvious.

Must've misread something...so I removed my original post.
Collingwood Board.
Not sure what it effects apart from your credibilty, but Freo currently have 11 wins, you have them winning two more for a total of 12???
Apart from Freo, I reckon Collingwood would be the team all the other finalists would be hoping to come up against.

Maybe, maybe not. But if we could gather some momentum heading into the finals, not too many sides would have us down on their wishlist.

Fremantle could end up a danger game should we meet them in the finals, I'd be wary. However, fifth could end up a handy spot, should we do everything right, meaning we could get (should we continue to win) two home finals, and a shot at the Eagles in Perth, which is a huge task, but hardly mission impossible (as we have proved before). Then, Adelaide at the MCG on Grand Final Day. Anything is possible.
The dream is out there - Go Pies!
Thoughts? I struggled to tip matches such as WCE/STK and WCE/Frem.
lmfao you to beat the eagles in the pf at subiaco LMAO. no way in the world. people thought adelaide was gonna do it last year but we showed in the big games we come out firing. you better be wary of freo they have a formidable record over yous.

i'd give us every chance if we had to travel in the sydney first week. im all cashed up for an interstate final too haha.
Haha, funniest thing i've seen all day.
Don't you mean "hypo"thetical as in " to hypothsise" ?or maybe you do mean "hyper"as in "beyond or above".In fact you may have created a new word," a Collingwood-ism , if you like? to 'HYPERTHESISE" to think beyond what one is actually capable of. IMO that describes Collingwood supporters very well.that is those that can think!Johnson#26 said:

If you give someone crap over their spelling, it is best not to have spelling and grammatical errors in your own post.
Glad to see you are on the ball!What are you?An Englisch teecher?My point was there is a vast difference between "hypo" & "hyper".Didn't care too much from dotting the "t's" & crossing the "i's"!Love to stay & chat,but got to get back to class!ekzistenz said:
