Re: 5 In A Row?
Gee, your a funny guy! One minute we're not good enough and the next minute we can win 5 in a row, including 3 teams above or equal with us on the table.
Consistency is a virtue: try to remember that!
Anyway, on our day I reckon we can beat all 4: the hardest probably being Richmond, who play the style of football we tend to struggle the most to combat.

Winning the next 4 games wouldn't alter any one of my opinions on where we're at.

Re: 5 In A Row?
I think the coaches might address the poor game against the Krays, where we let them kick 5 of the last 6 goals
and let slip a nice 7 goal lead.
Not good enough.
The squad would need to smash the GC for the whole game and not let up.
Non-negotiable.
The Freo game is a must win to prove we can win on the road (forget Tassy, Hawks drink their own bathwater and think they are still good)
So...GC + Dockers are both must win
Tigers - our club has historically been a club that can run other teams into form; e.g. Swans game- we just let #4 run riot
Bombers- they move the ball almost like Hawks of 3 years ago, precision+speed, they will be very hard to stop. Very hard.
2 of 4 is my tip. 3 of 4 would be brilliant
and let slip a nice 7 goal lead.

Re: 5 In A Row?
We should win the next 4 really.
If we play to our ability.
But that still doesn't mean we're good enough to worry the genuine teams. Regardless of if we beat Gold Coast, Freo, Richmond and Essendon - we still don't have the top end talent to compete at the business end of the season against the genuine contenders.
Isn't that pretty straight forward?

Re: 5 In A Row?
All winnable.
3/4 will do me. Takes us to 9-7.
A nice place to sit before the run home.

5 in a row assumes a precedent which was friday nights win.

They wouldn't have made it past week 2 of the finals last year without the help of the umpires.

Re: 5 In A Row?
Is there an acceptance that this year is extraordinarily tight?
There is no such thing as an easy 4 points this year. Quite a feat to win 5 in a row this year.

How could you misunderstand me?
I wasn't insulting you, just making a comment that I thought you were female
+ congratulating you on the racing joke.
My tadpole comment was directed at MB as well.

Re: 5 In A Row?
Are you and Johnny Member the same poster? I've been wondering: you both like to engage in rambling Henny Penny rants.
