Round 23 - 14 wins 8 losses

[Jacks Back]

After starting a thread earlier this season where I thought we'd be 6 wins and 1 loss after 7 rounds (turned out to be 5-2 with the one point loss to Port Adelaide in the SOS - Sold Our Soul - game) I thought I would do the same thing for our last 7 games.

I think we can win 5 of our last 7 to get us to 14 wins and 8 losses which would, hopefully, get us into the finals. If we only get to 13 wins then our percentage will let us down as, if we win any games, then they won't be percentage boosters.

I think we were going through one of those heavy training phases during the Brisbane/Ess/Syd games period losing all three (a la like Melbourne did).

Now, being St Kilda who knows what's going to happen.

Fremantle W
West Bulldogs (Unsure but maybe a Loss)
West Coast W (even if it is over there and they are playing better)
Hawthorn W
Geelong L
Brisbane (Unsure but I think we can Win this one)
Sydney W

In the history of the AFL, no team has ever won 13 games and not made the finals .
So pencil in another unwanted record for the saints if we do happen to win 13 .

Essendon won 14 games in 2013 and didn’t play finals.

I'd be thrilled if we won 14 games. We have a tough draw and I expect us to win 13 at the most. We'll be biting our nails in the last 3 rounds

I think this week will say a lot about how the rest of our season will look.

okay Wolfey you got me .

however they didn't win 14 games
they tripped their way through drugged out of their eyeballs !
they were riding dragon and hadn't even paid their fare !
Should have been kicked out of the comp.
do you reckon that if it was the saints who did what they did we wouldn't have been kicked out ?
