    Our record v top 4 at home

    Lost to crows by 4
    Lost to pies by 8
    Lost to hawks by 7

    All games we had match winning leads and were in it til the last 30 seconds.

    Surely our luck will turn around in finals?

    We've lead 18/21 times at 3 quarter time this year home and away. Today was the only top 8 team we've played anywhere we havent lead ar 3 qtr time all year yet we were up with 2 mins left.

    Facts say we are anything but "kidding ourselves" for thinking we are a good chance of winning anywhere against anyone.

    consider it a scarifice to the footy gods. Don't forget we won a GF by 4 points, helps to think about that when you lose a close one.

    That was a square up from the qualifying final.

    The following year the same thing..

    So this year, they can have their wins from close home and away games. We'll take the close ones when they really count.

    Didn't play Eagles

    I bet Mick Malthouse can't believe that the Crows, Eagles, Swans and Hawks all deserve to be in the top 4. Year of the bird.
    Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way you'll be a mile away and he'll be shoeless.

    Malthouse- what does this actually mean- as pies are so good and WCE just beat them convincingly and as Swans do not deserve to be top 2 and hawks only just beat us. WCE to beat Hawks next week I am thinking. Come on SWANS beat cats and we can still finish minor premiers.
