Looks like 12th is the highest we can finish this season now that we're 2 games behind Power and Swans...

Probably should have put some money on my pre-season prediction

Ah, hindsight! Seems to be the one distinguishing factor for being a Blues fan :lol:

You should have. You did pick it.

I don't know how you, or even people like David King and Nathan Buckley, who didn't know our injury list was going to be as bad as...USUAL.... make the right call with your predictions.

We showed what we could do with only 5 players out vs Cats, not counting Duffy: Newman, Jagga, Kemp, Cincotta and Fantasia. We won by 10 goals, because we could cover the missing players.

Just looking at Charlie finally move and mark with freedom and class last week reminded me that he has not been 100% to play all year, as has been the case with Walsh, Harry, Gov, Acres, Cottrell,and Elijah, and even SOS in some games, carrying the groin issue, when they played.

What a fkd up year.

I have us finishing somewhere between 10-14th. I do hope they prove me wrong. A classy mid and a good KPD short of finals imo. Having said that, if this happens, I'd still keep Voss. Will watch with interest

Its awful to think how far we have fallen.
As far as players have fallen off the perch.

Lose against Dees this week, and I don't see us higher than them end of this year.

Only because Effendopes have been decimated more than us by injury, we have a chance to end higher than them.

We are not even trying to tank. Our injury toll has been just that constricting ... and that's before we even look at the coach, his Assistants and the Game plan.

I can only see us winning one more game in round 24 vs Effendopes.

Regardless if we win or lose against Efendopes I can see us landing 14th, behind Dees and Saints. Pick 6 in the Draft will be the Compo for TDK.

You did too SB. Before the season started.

I thought you were kidding at the time given we only had Sayers, Smith, Cincotta and Newman injured....that we were told ofcourse.....the club just bullshitted to us re the health of Charlie, Harry, Walsh, Elijah and Fantasia. Why? I can't trust the club anymore TBH. I actually want to send my protest and not buy memberships, but after 4 decades of Membership ... I don't think I could do that to the kids.

You don't think SOS filled the CHB role effectively ?

I'd like a running HB, a quick mid, a quick small and good marking medium forward who can kick straight.....and a better ruck than the stats laden TDK whose opponents seem to be the most influential on the ground....all year.

Yes BB I was very pessimistic before season started. Worse than I have ever been in my life. This season had disaster written all over it.
I just don't understand how anyone could not see it. The way the list was constructed we had to get very good at the one thing we totally suck at and that is keeping players on the paddock.

What concerns me the most going into next year is they will blow the place up and other clubs will come and feast on the best bits of the carcass we have left
