If we beat the Blues....

....we are still 5-5. I'm taking that any day this pre-season folks.

We have an easier draw in the second half of the year so we could still chalk up a few more wins. IMO, I reckon we will come home with a bit of a wet sail.

At the risk of glossing over cracks - What do these ladder positions have in common?

2, 4, 5, 6, 8?

They are the teams that have beaten us this year!

It's a big "if" at this point

Someone mentioned reality checks
This will be it

Totally agree - if we win and win well then the season may be back on track - not looking to be contenders - but would be happy being a pretender in September this year!

Yes, good post. Beat Carlton and after Port in China (NO CHANCE!) we play Gold Coast in Townsville and Brisbane down here. We should win 3 of the next 4. But the selectors MUST be bold with their selections and not just play people based on good games they played three, four or five years ago. Players need to be selected on merit based on their exposed form be it in the seniors or in the magoos.

Today by playing Marsh and Young we are moving in the right direction. Players who faded out in the last quarter need to be given a spell next week.
