Other than Melbourne humming it has been a rather even season.

Usually 12 wins will get to 7th or 8th position at the end of the year, but last year 7th & 8th teams won only 11.

One week at a time Paddy...starting this week to get us to 6 wins after 8 rounds.

8 Adel - Home - W = 6 wins
9 GWS - Away - L **
10. Syd - Home -W = 7 wins
11. Coll - MCG - W = 8 wins

BYE: Mid season Draft/ Return of Marchbank and Cuningham through VFL

12. Ess - MCG - W = 9 wins
13. Rich - MCG - L **
14. Freo - Home - W = 10 wins
15. STK - Home - W = 11 wins
16. WCE - Away - W = 12 wins
17. Geel - MCG - W = 13 wins
18. GWS - Home - W - 14 wins
19. Adel - Away - W - 15 wins
20. Bris - Away - L
21.Melb - MCG - L
22. Coll - MCG - W = 16 wins

16 wins is Top 4, beat Rich again and its Top 2, guaranteed if we beat GWS away.

Give us the CUP !!!

First, teams often make the 8 with 10 wins but I wouldn't want to be relying on percentage the way ours is.

In regards to upcoming wins I think we have 3 likely wins and two likely losses.
Then 10 games could go either way so I'll take 5 wins from those. Gives us 13 total.
5th or 6th.

I also have us on 13 wins.

Wish we had the Eagles this week.

At this stage I reckon you want to win 13 games to be in. Not sure 11-12 will cut it this year.

I've got us winning 14

8 Adel - Home - W = 6 wins
9 GWS - Away - L
10. Syd - Home -L
11. Coll - MCG - W = 7 wins

BYE: Mid season Draft/ Return of Marchbank and Cuningham through VFL

12. Ess - MCG - W = 8 wins
13. Rich - MCG - L
14. Freo - Home - W = 9 wins
15. STK - Home - L
16. WCE - Away - W = 10 wins
17. Geel - MCG - W = 11 wins
18. GWS - Home - W - 12 wins
19. Adel - Away - W - 13 wins
20. Bris - Away - L
21.Melb - MCG - L
22. Coll - MCG - W = 14 wins

Could easily see us winning some I've marked as losses - GWS in a couple of weeks, Swans, aints and tiggers.
Could also easily see us losing a couple I've marked as wins - Freo, Cats in particular.
In short anywhere from 12 to 16 wins is what we're likely looking at.
12 wins and with our percentage would likely mean 7th or 8th. 13/14 wins would likely mean 5th or 6th and playing at the G in week 1 of the finals. 16 and we're looking at somewhere in the top 4.

After the past 20 years, just making finals will be a major achievement. Whether it takes 11 or 12 wins, as long as we get there, i'll be rapt.
But at this stage, just winning this week will do me.
