If we can reach a prelim with our injury list I'll be more than satisfied. It's been a brave run since our terrible start.

Making a prelim would be great.Barring a cats loss to the west coast, top 4 is gone. From this point I just want a home final win from 5th/6th and anything else is a bonus.

We had our chance to really contend and get 2 home finals the last 2 weeks and blew it.
No excuses ,it was there for us and for whatever reason we lost.
So now win next week and just focus on the first final.
Unless we somehow turn around
- Our inaccurate goal kicking
- Our inability to close out 4th quarters
We're not making a significant impact in finals this year.
It's going to be hard to get hyped for the Essendon game but I'd like us to put on a show for our home supporters for once this year (other than the Richmond game) and make a statement to put an explanation mark on the end of our season and take something positive into finals. It won't be good enough to barely hold on by less than 2 goals or worse lose.
I had honestly expected a more ruthless season if I'm honest.I always wondered about that truth telling exercise after the GF , which several players have mentioned ,where the mistakes they made in key moments were honestly assessed in front of each other and they all took 'learnings' out of that. It sounds fine but some players could find that mentally damaging whatever others say publicly.
Too much closeness and honesty isn't always a good thing with young men. It was a GF . They'll all know what they did wrong ,they're not 12. You can't see any discernable calmness in key moments since and we started the season like we were mentally done.
That's just my uninformed observation. Could be wrong.
Didn't watch the game, but couldn't believe West Coast didn't put up more than what it did. Pies and Dockers fans must be hating on the Eagles. I hate giving full credit Carlton, but what a backs to the wall win. We would deadset wilt if we had those sorts of injuries and we clearly don't have the back bone Carlton obviously has with a win like that.Ok so lions probably won't make top 4 because we ain't beating cats sorry.
But finishing 5th is a home final and win that who knows, you might get a gettable, nervous QF loser in week 2.
Not ideal but not over

Didn't see it but I'm assuming we were worse than Carlton were good but yeah it was a good win for them.Didn't watch the game, but couldn't believe West Coast didn't put up more than what it did.

I think that's possible but to do it 4 times in a row against 4 other good teams who'll be just as desperate as us is a bridge too far imo.I still want a flag. Beat Essendon and lock in 5th will give us a red hot crack. Most years, you'd probably feel finishing outside of the top 4 is too big a disadvantage. This year - coupled with the pre finals bye - I think winning four in a row is very achievable. Our away form has been better than home from too which helps.
Just got to refocus, get our connection and goal kicking right and bring our best form for a month. Our best is still the best imo.

Nothing counts unless it furthers the narrative.
