League Table 2018/19 | #WeWantSixth

Soooooo if we're looking like finishing in 4th spot after round 26. Is it best to book for the 5th of may or wait till round 27 is done?

If we keep winning we should know by the time we play Citeh in Rd26

something about chickens and hatching here...

Yeah but are all the eggs in one basket?

Too early to be crowing about the finals - there could still be a cockup or two

Is the basket half full or half empty?

Scratching around for new puns can be exhausting!

Off topic - threads supposed to be about the pecking order. 

At least nobody is behaving like a cock

chicken pax ?

Don't count your chickens

If Perth can beat Victory and we get up over Newcastle: 5 points to third.

Following round Victory vs Sydney, us vs Adelaide. 

And that's no yoke!

It's all fine, yolking around, until someone ends up with an egg on their face

Scrambling for a pun. Might have to poach someone elses.

Too many puns, my brain is fried!

Let’s just sit on this now.

cracking entertainment 

Just waiting for Friday night's result and a new League Table to be hatched.

Following round Victory vs Sydney, us vs Adelaide. 

Just to say I was allowing for the goal diff for third. But if we keep scoring 4-8 goals a game we may be only 4 points off third, not five. :)

Let's assume Adelaide beat CCM on Sunday (and that's not a done deal). With our hugely superior goal difference I reckon we could conceivably sneak that home playoff spot with as little as a win over the Reds next week. That would give us 40 points and leave the Reds needing 7 points from their last 3 games. City would need at least 8 points from their last 4 games. Plus those two have to play each other which will help us, especially if they draw.

Don't want to tempt fate but a home playoff is right there for the taking now.

Thanks Perth ! NOT!!

With 41 goals scored this season, we are currently equal with second most goals that we have scored in a season (with 2016/17). In 2014/15 we managed to score 45 goals.

Soo.... next weekend's game a six-pointer?

I think the usual 3 points per win rule still applies.

That goal difference now compared to before the CCM game - who said we were a bit goal shy?

The inevitable collapse will be your fault. 

Some cods never learn!

Some light hearted reading here. 

Ozzy preseason predictions - ?

more like a half dozen..

I certainly believe that there's 6 points up for grabs over the next 2 weeks anyway.
