bpurple,
how many premierships will top spot get you? I'll give you a hint, nil. The fact that Hawthorn are two games behind is meaningless when they are clearly in better form that we are.
We ultimately failed to beat the roos, who were pretty ordinary today. We managed to be worse. As we were last weekend and as we have been pretty much since the tigers game. We are going into a final series in poor form and ladder position means zero.
You can see that Lyon recognises that which is why we are suddenly trying to play on at every opportunity because if we cannot match the hawks and eagles, we are not in the hunt in any finals games. Seems to me, too little, too late, especially with our skill level which compares poorly with other clubs at the top end of the ladder.
