And with North and the Aints both winning, it puts us a match behind the 8 ball.


Interesting to note that these two teams face off against each other next week.


Indeed. Means one of them is guaranteed a win. Makes next week an 8-point match.


That'd be 8 points behind the 8 ball. :wink:

The reality check is that it was never the intention to play finals in 2008 - it was just a bonus if it happened.

The hope dangled before us is that it is still a possibility - but one that is a bit more remote now.

Very true, but if we miss out, it's by our own making now, unfortunately.

We'll be ready for the finals when we can win enough games to get there. It may be this year, it may be next year, it may be in 13 years time.

Hey verbs,

What conversation do you think we'll be having when we meet up at the 'Gabba in August?


"What a win! Reckon we're a chance against the Hawks next week?"


Well I think it will be more like: "Why did we let them get so far ahead and then tease all our fans by getting so close only to let them tear us a new one"
