they will go 2-4 in their last 6 games....maybe sneak in an upset and be 3-3...but probably a year too soon...hopefully they dont do a south and come up one year and then go back down again...

westies fans should feel great about this year so far.

similar feelings to us blues fan in 97
Carn the blues!!!!!

Without MAYBE as a choice I voted yes. Westies have a reasonable road home.
If they keep improving I can't see why they wouldn't see a final.
Unless they drop their bundle, I can certainly see at least 1 final for The Bloods.
But they must keep improving, in form and confidence.

Some bloke started a thread a couple fo a months ago about how the top five was already set.
Reckon he was right.
I'm gonna sit back, crack the top off a Pale Ale, and watch the Double Blues prevail

Need to compare with run home of North and Eagles - the byes might make it interesting.

If you beat North yesterday, then perhaps.

But as of now. No.

Can only see you winning two more games....

no hope of making it, yet i believe they are the 5th best team in the league & had they beaten south round 1 & glenelg in round 4 which they should have they would probably have made the 5....they are obviously the most improved team in the competition
i thought secret groups were a thing of the past, well not on websites anyway

You can forget North dropping out CD, despite a tough four weeks. They have an easy last three games but don't worry you won't drop out either.
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

we are not a top five side as yet, if we did make it it would be a year to early and we would just be making up the numbers. happy with the improvment this year, back it up with a top five next year, then a top three with in the next couple of years after that

Let's be honest, every team that ever finishes in 5th is only ever making up the numbers, apart from Norwood in 1984. I hope you guys make it, because just being there again is awesome, I kind of remember what it is like.. :oops:

I voted No but it would be good to make it as I think that any finals experience is good for the club and the players, as it should make everyone want to do it again.
