It won’t be easy, and they’ll need a bit of help along the way, but this how they can do it.
First things first, the Blues must win their last three games.
That’s a non-negotiable.
Their quest starts with a Round 16 meeting with Sydney, where they need to win by 30 points and hope the Giants beat the Crows by 29 points or less.
