The Pirates sit in last spot on the ladder and meet premiers Port Macquarie tomorrow at Old Bar. Old Bar has 13 points while fifth placed Wauchope sits on 21.
Lucas points out that Old Bar will play the majority of the remaining matches at Old Bar.
“And all our long trips are just about out of the way. The only one we have now is Port City,’’ Lucas said.
“If we can win all our games at home then who knows? You never say never.’’
He expects to field much-the-same side tomorrow as went down to Wauchope last week when goal kicking proved the difference.
Lucas will check Danny Russell’s fitness after he was injured early in the clash against Wauchope, but expects him to be right to take his place.
