    A quarter down Gold Coast look pleasingly up for it against Richmond.

      I reckon the top 4 still very much in play mate. We are only 8 points off it with a game in hand. Im not conceding until its impossible to do because this group can do anything, they have proved that and only a fool would write them off (I'm not saying you are a fool BTW. You stuck firm but a few posters here could do with taking a good, hard, long look at themselves with their Chicken Little behavior)

      Tomorrow is so bloody important. almost our most important game since October last year.
      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        Top 4 for sure is still a possibility.

          How did they let Gray get goal side and how did the leave space for him to run into?

            If the Lions could miraculously upset the Eagles in Perth tomorrow and we win I think will be in the 8 at the end of the round.

              As everyone knows, and none more acutely than the club, how we present tomorrow is critical and will answer so many questions.

              If we get up, and unsheath some of our best footy every team in the eight will have at least one eye on the rear vision mirror with a sense of dread.

                Not if, when. I hope.

                Seriously win tomorrow and the competition will shudder.

                    The commentary box doing their predictable best to absolve Dangerfield of any responsibility for pinning a bloke's arms and pile driving his head into the ground.

                        Going by the past the precedent has been set that a tackle like that is at least 1 week. I bet the AEFL won't have the balls to do it though.
                        They've done studies you know, 60% of the time, it works every time!

                          So, we have a different set of rules for non Brownlow footballers !

                            Yeah just because there Brownlow winners should not mean they get special privileges.

                              They always have unless it is was C.Grant.
                              Especially ones who are favourite to win it in that year.
                              I back Dangerfield doesn't even get cited.

                                The umpires have different rules for star players, no surprises if the MRP follows suit.
                                Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.
