Friday night - win and we are in the 8
Apparently our game against Carlton will be moved to Friday night.
And bizarrely, after all the results went our way today we would be 8th if we win.

Re: Friday night - win and we are in the 8
That is an amazing stat if true. We - and the gods of footy - have been doing everything to try to avoid us playing finals this season.
Will Marshall be available or does he still have quarantine time to serve? Does the game being moved to Friday night prevent it?

Re: Friday night - win and we are in the 8
Should have put Steele on Kelly early in our game.
And Long should have got that goal.
And Kent. It wasn't a hard angle.
Pre-game warm up, I saw them nail almost every shot at goal. Only missed a few

Re: Friday night - win and we are in the 8
We could still fall in if we win 3 more games because none of GWS, Essendon or Richmond are certainties to make it.
The Swans game is the key game. They all are from here.
Making the 8 however might be another false dawn as we are clearly not good enough at the present.

Re: Friday night - win and we are in the 8
All plausible except for our choking in every game with a clear prize on the end. You hope Carlton are terminally dispirited by now and Teague is thinking f it. But if we lose a game we should win by 60 points, truely I couldn't feign surprise. In the 8 for 24 hrs would be nice, though a cruel tease.

Re: Friday night - win and we are in the 8
You would hate to be a team that finishes 9th every year. You would never recover from that.

The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

Re: Friday night - win and we are in the 8
% will kill us, getting rolled over by WB, Ess, Richmond will result in missing finals and no one to blame but themselves . Either got ahead of themselves ( which i tend to think happened) or weren't fit enough post pre season. Losses of that size are effort things not tactics.

Re: Friday night - win and we are in the 8
We blew our last realistic finals hopes against Port, can't see us reeling off 4 wins in a row to make it now.

What about us? We won't be poor three games in a row. We're due. We'll get a few back this week. Focus has to be on a four quarter effort.Sainter_Dad wrote: ↑Mon 26 Jul 2021 8:40pm The footy God are scowling

Re: Friday night - win and we are in the 8
I’d be real worried for our future if we didn’t easily take care of Carlton.

Re: Friday night - win and we are in the 8
The bookies have us as $1.50 favourites and Carlton got flogged by the wooden spooners last week.
If we lose this might as well just pack the club up.
