    Good luck with that one - there are actually fans at GFC who have doubts about our play off aspirations despite our 'healthy' position.

    To get to the playoffs a team needs an average of one and a half points per game over the season. So somewhere around 69 points.

    Rovers have 18 points from 22 games. So with 24 games to go, they need 51 points. The calculation of the four possibilities follows..........

    W 17 - D 0 - L 7 = 51 POINTS

    W 16 - D 3 - L 5 = 51 POINTS

    W 15 - D 6 - L 3 = 51 POINTS

    W 14 - D 9 - L 0 = 51 POINTS

    It is therefore mathematically possible. But you would need to be some sort of super optimist to put any money on it!!
