Four games to trams below us = must win
Two v bottom of 8 WB and Stk = must win
ThT gives 12.5 which in 23 game season may be half a game short.

Would be very handy to beat the Lions to get ahead of the curve. And Dees have our measure lately. Port away the only one I would be tipping against us on today's form.
 
Let’s see what Mini can do at Marvel. Win our 2 remaining games at Marvel and we are basically in - that will define our season but I am only hopeful, not very confident at all - sainters and doggies will be incredibly hard to play there and I reckon all 3 of those teams will be scrambling for one of those last spots in the 8.

What we need is for the sainters to fall into a hole now and be out of the running by then, like previous years.

I am more confident of us jagging this weeks game against the lions tbh than winning either of these 2.

Didn’t Balme use the word miracle this week in describing our chances.

EDIT. the roar is onto the sainters phoniness

There are 2 teams outside the 8 that no one currently in the 8 wants to make it in by September.

The Tigers and the Cats,

The HUN has us making the finals.

View attachment 19720

Thats some bullish prediction for Essendon. I have them finishing on 11 wins and finishing 11th. Have the Tigers finishining on 12 wins and beating the Saints out for 8th on %, but with us playing Adelaide at the AO in the first week of finals. Adelaide will beat the Bombers at Marvel. I still don't rate the Bombers.

To be honest I cant see us getting on a run like 2014 now. We seem to be spluttering along at best

I just dont see a team with each win building confidence like we did in 2014

A lot also went right last time in terms of other results
 
we're 15th, but amazingly only 10 points off 4th spot and 6 points off 8th spot.

We probably don't deserve to make the 8, but we're far from out of it. I'm starting to think 12.5 wins might be enough... but we will have to build up our percentage.

Win our next 3 and go from there. But a loss this week and its all over.
