The unofficial "Where is T&T?" who to root for thread

[FrediKanoute]

Not that we are in a desperate position needing teams to lose but it would be good to :

Carlton beat Geelong
Lions beat Port
Swans beat Giants
North beat Dees (unlikely)
Eagles beat Bombers (unlikely )
Suns beat Freo (unlikely)

Even a couple of those results would be handy for us.

Tick one off!

Looking at the ladder and predictor. It looks like 5 more wins would be enough:

RD17) Power at Adelaide
RD18) Carlton at Marvel
RD19) Cats at Geelong
RD20) Swans at Sydney
RD21) Melbourne at Marvel
RD22) Crows at Adelaide
RD23) North at Marvel
RD24) Giants at Ballarat


Looks like the next four weeks is harder than the last four weeks. If we can go 2-2 the next month, stay fit, then 3 of the last 4 looks doable to edge into the finals. Another win would?ve been nice to now or in the next month, but we?ve just got the keep the foot on the gas and not simply rely on rooting as I don?t think 4 wins from here is enough.

I reckon we can win 5. Hell, the optimist in me says we can win them all, albeit unlikely but if we can keep injury list low we could really come home with a wet sail. So much of it depends upon whether we can buck the trend of winning a few then losing one and losing games when we are favourites. Would be great to beat Cats and Swans away.

Win 7 and it is top 4

Win 7 and it is top 4

I would love that outcome. But wouldn’t bet your money on it. I’m content that it we can get in, with some winning momentum, a fit list and a rest for some sore guys like Bont, then it’s game on.

Just a shame we dropped a couple of winnable games earlier this season. Moreover bodes well for next year as the kids keep getting better.

If we do lose we need to make sure its not by a lot, and we need to put teams to the sword with our wins to keep our percentage up.

It could be the difference between missing and finishing fifth could be down to percentage. The difference between top four and seventh or eighth might be just about percentage.

I see us winning the last 4 on current form. Port are fading fast so we're a sneaky chance in Adelaide. The other 3 week be struggles.

Its in our hands.

BTW if StKilda can beat Port we will finish the round in the 8.

World class rooting this weekend everyone.

It was even a case of great rooting without knowing we were rooting!

[BornInDroopSt'54]

We are going to need to play our best to make it given we play Port there, Carlton, Geelong there, Sydney there, Melbourne,

[BornInDroopSt'54]

Adelaide there, Norf and the Great West.

[HOSE B ROMERO]

With positions 3-13 being so close i've been confused who i should be rooting for. And although the bottom 5(Adelaide, St Kilda, Richmond, North and West Coast) capable of upsets, i thought i'd just compile a list of how many of this lower bracket the contenders for the 8 play in the remaining games.

Swans 3
Carl 2
Freo 2
Ess 2
Glg 4
Coll 1
Port 2
Bris 3
Dogs 2
Gws 1
Goldy 3
Melb 1
Haw 3

Lots of other factors come into play i know but just food for thought(injuries, location, form etc).

" Richmond and West Coast record massive wins. Suns scrape in by a point." My wish for today.

Unfortunately the odds of that happening are about the same as my chances of shagging Margot Robbie in a spaceship on the way to the moon!

GC going well at the moment. Undefeated at home to date
