In our last month of football we play three of the four top sides in West coast, Richmond & Geelong. While we want to beat the saints - what do we realistically want to achieve in the other three matches?

For mine Vintage.
Great effort and tactics, excellent use of skills executed at appropriate times.
Also,
Lots of winning or near fishes. :grin:

If we could win two more games I would be ecstatic.
We need to finish the season off really strongly to make us a destination club.
The higher we finish the better the Stocker deal looks.
Usually at this time of the year I can't wait for the season to finish, I don't want it to end now.

I would like to beat WC and StK, not get blown away by Richmond and beat Geelong.
I think that is possible if a bit hopeful.
I doubt Geelong will risk all their mids against Cripps and co with finals coming up.

Our club would want to win all 4.

I think we are still :mad: letting the Dees and Doggies games slip out of our hands.
That would have made it 7 in a row.

If we win the next 4 we win 7 in a row.
Club has a chance to get that opportunity back.

In order what I want:

Beat West coast tomorrow because after that win its all about Carlton regardless what we do over the following 3 games.
Sets up a huge build up for the Tiggers game, and all the news will be about the juggernauts of footy.

Beat Richmond on the G is my real priority... as always.

Saints win is expected as a minimum.

If we keep up our form from the last 7 weeks, especially the last 3, I’ll be pleased and the results will take care of themselves. In saying that, a win against the saints and one of the other three would be great

No blowouts. Beat Geelong on their taxpayer funded welfare ground with cheat dimensions.

Win, win, win, win... or go down swinging

Need to convince Coniglio etc. that we're a club worth considering

I think we're a chance against the Saints and Cats, Eagles on a down day but the one I really want are the Tigers

Consistency of effort in every quarter played.

Defend strongly.

Good ball movement.

Capitalise on the scoreboard when we have the momentum.

Maintain the spirit (players and fans) shown in the last 7 weeks.

We need to be very competitive against the top sides. No blow outs.
If we can pinch 1, it would be ideal but must not lose to the Saints. Not negotiable, and I’m sick of losing to these sides.

if we win everygame (Big if), and the crows lose every game (Big If)

We will actually finish on top of them ... i would love to see the meedja go berserk with that scenario.

I want to see competitiveness in every game. No blow outs. I reckon if we can knock off a rejuvenated saints and pinch one against a top 4 team whilst staying competitive in the other 2 games we've done really well. If that happens then surely Teaguey gets the permanent gig too. Still a lot to play for this year

That’s where I am.

Effort is non negotiable.

Don’t care how many we win as long as I can see system and heart and grunt and football intelligence.

Win all four and we’re the league’s new destination club.

Plus some smarts in the game plan....
Plus
Take it up to Richmond like the Dees are doing, kicking away from the Tiges numbers and set-up (Melbourne probably won't win, but you can see the effect... a better team and Tiges are likely to get killed)
Plus
Control the play when others have momentum.. Identify quickly and change the play...
Like that ad...
I'd just like to see a little more if what we've been doing the last few weeks


Go Blues
