If I said it about any other team know one would have cared

Just back to the football. How good was big jake yesterday for he bombers. Had a few good weeks and seems to have found his mojo. Bombers looking ok at the minute and a good chance for a finals spot.

Essendon have one of those spots locked up. Between the crows and collingwood for the last spot imo. Don't think Gold Coast will get there.

Lol probably.

Are Geelong one of the worst teams to ever sit second on the ladder at this point of the season?

Crows in 2012?

We are not safe yet, percentage is ordinary and could cost us. We have a couple of games also against fierce rivals that are 50/50 at best plus the fact we still have a couple of games at Etihad where we perform ordinary. Reckon we might just scrape in and from there who knows. Ive got us finishing 7th and getting a home final at the G against North lol

More on form - the best form out of any of the teams 5th down. You should only drop 1 more game for the year against Sydney.

Crows have collingwood and north away but on current form I would expect us to win both of those games. We also have games against Richmond Brisbane and west coast (home) so it's not a bad run home.

Collingwood have crows power west coast away Brisbane gws and hawthorn. I can only see them winning 2 of those.

Suns have Brisbane st Kilda Carlton power essendon and west coast.

They run looks much harder than it did a week ago. With their percentage they will miss out imo

How you say that with any confidence is a mystery. All 3 teams have had serious ups and downs this year.

I'd say the Collingwood one is 50/50 with Collingwood needing to get back as winners and the 'Roos game in their favour under the roof.

I agree entirely Crows have been very up and down and I would think Collingwood and the Roos would be very much favourites but depends which version of these teams plays. Crows really needed to beat the under strength hawks at home to have had a real chance of making the finals.

No roof in Tassie.

Are Geelong one of the worst teams to ever sit second on the ladder at this point of the season?

Yes.

Not saying it will be easy, just that I think our last month has been pretty good, much better than the pies at least. North is anyone's guess. Didn't realise it was down in tassie, I think that will push it much more towards north but it will still be close.

Not really sure mate, i cant recall who was 2nd after 17 and a half rounds in other years nor can I find a ladder online anywhere for past seasons that publishes the ladder after Round 17.5

[Red Rocket]

Probably not worth its own thread but Tom Jones is the GF entertainment this year.

[Johno6]

I cannot believe that shit. Shocking decision.

[Q.]

It's not unusual.

He'll sing on the green green grass of the 'G

Couldn't think of much worse.
