If we win next 3 and lose to Hawthorn, we will probably have to beat Geelong to finish top two. So if you consider the chance of that high, then yes. Otherwise, not so much.
Adelaide have a soft run home, so they are most likely to end up first. Hawthorn are the only team with a higher percentage so we need to get more wins than them. This means either beating them, or beating Geelong. Dropping the game against Collingwood is less serious as if we end up on the same number of wins as them we have a better percentage and will finish ahead of them.
Great to get the win - a shame Goodes got hurt towards the end - he was already moving poorly prior to the knock - now everyone will be talking about his injury instead of his lack of form - his set shot kicking was very good - you know he is struggling when he plays for free kicks - has'nt been right for the last couple of weeks.
I do remember ROK's outburst before the EF against Carlton in 2010. He came across as petulant. And that game turned into a classic.
With Goodes, he actually said some nice things about ANZ last year, about how the dimensions of the ground helped them prepare for the match against Geelong. Remember? We played St. Kilda at ANZ for a win, then beat Geelong at home the following week.
Cats V Hawks friday night will be an interesting watch if I can tear myself away from the bloody Olympics.
Was it just me or did TDL look pretty ordinary in the GC game?
