Playing your last 5 games in a row against bottom 8 clubs helps.

In that five we've played Adelaide, Collingwood and Geelong, hardly push overs...
Our draw has been pretty solid this year.

Your LAST 5 games are v Collingwood, Geelong, GWS, St Kilda & Gold Coast.
Collingwood & Geelong couldn't beat Melbourne - pushovers. The other 3 are cooked. It's a great prep for a finals campaign.

It is... Considering we haven't been full strength for some time... Just building some momentum.
Hawks have had it just as easy with the exception of the west coast game...[/quote]
You don't think Richmond are much chop?

Forgot about them. I think go alright but won't be there at the pointy end...
The premiership will go to a side currently in the top 4 but none will come from Perth. :)

I didn't say we'd win it...

But people continue to write us off and history has taught us when that happens we usually go alright

Agree. I think it's Hawks every day, just the margin will differ depending on who makes it to have the honour of defeat

St Kilda (38) v Sydney (135)

So Canada beat the USA in a sport that doesn’t involve ice, a puck and something called a ‘Zamboni’. And yes, I know some of you want to now write a comment saying ‘maybe it did involve ice Titus!’

What is it with commentators being beyond excited with players from overseas? Sure, they’re interesting stories but you’d think they’d cured cancer they way people go on about them.

I’d like someone to get that excited over a player because they were from some random suburb, like Croydon.

“We’ll he’s from Croydon and how exciting is it to have a player in the AFL from there? I understand his parent are here tonight after making the long trip. I’m told Croydon has both a Coles and an Aldi and the people speak a dialect that is almost English.”

St Kilda finally looked like they are over this season after sticking with it a lot longer than other teams near them on the ladder. Unfortunately for them, Sydney look like they’ve woken up in time for the finals.

The Swans looked like they are getting serious, which is ominous. Franklin got through his comeback and was put in cotton wool during the third quarter when he was subbed off.

Can Sydney win the premiership? It’s certainly possible and I’m predicting it right here.

All I hear is who will win the flag out of WCE, Freo and Hawks. Then the talk is who from the bottom 4 sides of the 8 can sneak in. Not one mention of Syd in either talk and you guys have been smashing sides the last two weeks (albeit inferior competition).

Hmmmm

One thing is for sure, it seems to be the most even top eight in years. Reckon every team can beat any of the others on their day which I hasn't been true in recent memory

Agreed, very little discussion and everyone has written us off... Fair enough, our form this season hasn't been great, BUT we are the only side in that 8 who hasnt peaked. But it seams now we are playing some good footy...

Happy to fly under the radar

Being allowed to what?

If it's relating to our soft draw at the end of the season that's nonsense... Our draw this year has been a tough one.
