Looks like a repeat of last season. Finish out of the top 4. Cop difficult finals and a final away where we have to travel to end our finals hopes. Seriously thought this could have been a year to win a flag a few games ago. Based on current form this is nowhere near the case. Brisbane, Fremantle and GWS will push us down the 5th soon. Maybe we have become what Richmond was when they were Ninthmond. Maybe we could become Fifthton. Even though injuries are killing us, our lack of desperation to get the job done is half our problem. We won’t find extra pace and speed, or class in the remaining games this season. Imagine West Coast is the only win we get from here on and miss the 8. Are we only making up the numbers in the top 8? Losing to GWS, Bulldogs and Port suggests we are not genuine. Last season we beat 8 out of 9 teams to end the season and teams in the top 8. Maybe the wheels have fallen off. In a worse position than last season. At least we carried form through to finals. Should have left this a day later to reflect on what to post. Very poor back half of the season so far. Can’t find a way to win 5 or 6 games in a row as the top sides generally can. No confidence for our next 2 outings. None at all.
This digital world is too much for us insects to understand.
