The Awful Truth - 2015 Edition - ItsOurTime - 08-02-2015
This is the run home for all contenders (for pick 1 that is)
Carlton
Collingwood
Brisbane (away)
Melbourne
GWS (away)
Hawthorn
Brisbane
Gold Coast
Carlton
Adelaide (away)
Hawthorn (away)
Western Bulldogs
Gold Coast
Brisbane (away)
Richmond (away)
Essendon
Port
Sydney (away)
Gold Coast did us an enormous "favour" with their upset draw and will probably put themselves out of the running next week. Though a loss is likely to give them that last spot.
If it goes to plan though, then we'll most likely find ourselves on the same number of games as Brisbane the following week (don't be surprised by any omissions - expecting us to "manage" Cripps' young body and MK's fragile one myself) with a race to the lowest percentage from there - we'd need to out lose them by about 15-20 points per game probably less if they beat us by 5 or 6 goals.
I reckon Barker is in on this and is happy enough as long as there is effort. Not sure what the club has promised in return.

Brisbane have just offered 750k a year for Charlie Dixon.....so they are covering their bases a bit, I actually dont mind the left footed McStay and reckon he is a
decent forward prospect...
Re: The Awful Truth - 2015 Edition - Robblues - 08-02-2015
Would love McStay if there was a way

Gold Coast beat Brisbane, then the week after Brisbane beat us. That'd be the spoon.
