    JB: Can you win the premiership?
    MW: Yes we can. We'll get a home final and take it from there.

      Thanks BT.

      Having an understated young man say that makes me believe even more.
      More of an In Bruges guy?

        He didn't say it with much confidence though... Looking back through time I can only think of Collingwood in 1990 who suffered such a heavy defeat so late in the season and then went on to win the premiership.

        Overall Mitch spoke well, his comments regarding our 'reactionary' midfield on the weekend were spot on.. We were all standing waiting for NN to hit the ball rather than bring on the move.

            We beat Hawks convincingly one year not long before they won the flag.

              1997. We lost to Sydney by nearly 100 points, round 17, then thrashed them in the first week of the finals.

                  I must have missed us winning the flag that year.

                    Just about every team has suffered a disappointing loss at some stage this year, haven't they? Maybe not to the extent we did on the weekend but I think it's going to be something that happens from time to time in the modern game.
                    Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?

                      Although the Hawks have lost more games than they would like they have been in every game. Certainly no big losses or no blow out losses like we had on the weekend and had against the Hawks in Tassy.

                        Yep, their greatest losing margin this season was in Friday's game vs Port, 22 points.

                          If you win your first final anything and everything is possible.

                          FYI I remember West Coast getting smashed by something like 12 goals at home very late in the 2006 season.
                          But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                            yeah they got done by 57pts against fellow top 4 side Freo. They absolutely pantsed the tigers a week later by 88pts in melbourne

                              Hawthorn had 2 consecutive big losses late in the season before going on to win the flag in 86. The worst one was to Essendon.
