I'd be delighted if we made the semis this year.stevie wrote:Yes, if we win our next 11 games...
But seriously, knowing our luck we'll:
Beat E-girls away in first final
Beat Crows away in second final
Beat Shitney away in prelim
Then get beaten by 10 goals in GF by Dawks

Re: Poll - Can St.Kilda win the flag this year?
Of course we can.
If Warney can pick up Liz Hurley, a flag from 7th/8th is simple by comparison!

Only way we can is if we win our remaining h & a games and hope for perfect results giving us a top 4 finish.

Re: Poll - Can St.Kilda win the flag this year?
Based on today's effort we can and can't.
That first quarter was terrific and play like that and we will easily do it.
The second quarter was shithouse. Play like that and well lose to melbourne

Any team with a chance of making the eight can win the flag.
The chance we will from outside the top 4 is sweet FA buddy.
If you don't understand that you need help sorry.......
Very stupid answer.
If you think we can't win from outside the top 4, then your answer is, "no, we can't win the flag this year."
I'm asking for your opinion, not for the mathematical ratio of probability.
If you don't understand that you need help, buddy.

Re: Poll - Can St.Kilda win the flag this year?
Almost NO Chance. Especially given there will be at least 1 interstate pre-lim.
My logic is that at best - we finish 7 or 8th.
Finish 1 & 2 and you are a serious contender
Can anyone win it from 3-4? - Yes
Can anyone win it from 4-6? - Highly unlikely
Can anyone win it from 7-8 - Almost no chance
Can anyone win it from outside the 8 - Obviously not.

Re: Poll - Can St.Kilda win the flag this year?
as everyone said in another post. we can only afford to lose one more (probably pies).
we lose against the catters and its good night irene for even making the 8.

Re: Poll - Can St.Kilda win the flag this year?
I actually think we have had a good season considering. There were some good signs yesterday and I think we are well placed when you look at our draw. By that I mean that we have a good opportunity to win 13 games to make the 8. If we can't win the games we need to from here then we don't deserve to be there in the first place.

Re: Poll - Can St.Kilda win the flag this year?
i think the pack is starting to seperate. i hope its not, but deep down i think someone in the top 4 will win it. gap will become apparent closer to finals.
Re: Poll - Can St.Kilda win the flag this year?
as much as we didn't play particularly well yesterday, the group showed great resiliance, and drive yesterday....
I think we would have made a good finals push had we have gotten a few of our closer games, earlier this season, over the line...
however, i think we are just in too weak a position to make any finals noise, if we DO make the 8 it will be on the back of some of the hardest taxing games of footy right at the wrong time of the year...
We have to win every game bar one to make finals, probably, and that seems unlikely....
We in finals form, but paying for early mistakes... C'est la vie

Re: Poll - Can St.Kilda win the flag this year?
What will be interesting is that about 5 sides will probably be awaiting the results of the last round to see if they play finals or not, similar to the top 4 order too, good for the competition and general footy fans.

Definitely can win the flag for the best of the leftovers (those that don't make the final 8)

We can and WILL win the Premiership.
In honour of those who went before, in the dark and desperate years.
Re: Poll - Can St.Kilda win the flag this year?
No.
And I have come to the conclusion that I won't live to see another.
