Quite confident of the top two now. If we beat Georgia and Moldova, I'd be very surprised to miss out. Given their respective fixtures, I'd be quite surprised if either Wales or Austria managed 10 points, although if we do end up level with either, we would likely lose on GD, unless we can hockey the Moldovans. Even that is assuming we lose to Serbia and Wales.

The preservation of the status quo may be disappointing in light of yesterday but it is one less game for each of them to make the top two: both Austria and Wales will be more disappointed with how yesterday went than we are, especially when both lead late enough in their games but could not see it out.

Top 2 - Serbia have a harder run in than us in that they have to go to Dublin and Vienna.

If we were to beat the Serbs at home, we'd be in with a great shout of top spot.

Don't know what the story is with polls recently always see "you can't vote in this poll

For what it's worth think we will finish 2nd and probably get a stinker of a playoff draw

We'll finish second and get knocked out in the playoff. We blew our chance to finish top yesterday. We gave Austria far too much respect and we will do the same with Serbia.

We will see in the autumn what the team is really made off. Pot, sh*t time.
If we beat Serbia we'll finish no worse than second.
 
One thing we will need is to score at least 4 against Moldova at home.
 
My hunch is that we'll finish level on points with Serbia (21) and finish second in the group on GD.

Yesterdays result just dumps a load of weight on the next two games Georgia can't really qualify but they were better this campaign than they have been previously its a tricky place toe go then Serbia come to Dublin won't be easy either could go either way least wales will pay austria least they could knock one or each other out by the time serbia come to town

Top of the group.

Austria will do us a favour in Cardiff and at home to Serbia.

Had we beaten Austria yesterday then I would say top but given how poor that Austria team were and how we struggled against them I can honestly see us finishing 3rd. I hope I'm wrong I really do.

Didn't think we would qualify at the start of the group but reckon we will top the group now. I think we will beat Georgia, moldova and either Serbia or Wales. I'm convinced we won't lose to either of out main rivals.

I believe we are now 8th out of the 9 group runners up as it stands. Could miss out even if we funisg 2nd. That game yesterday will come back to bite us.

2nd. We bottled it. Will never get a chance to top a group like we did yesterday.

8 points from our next 4 will be enough to do.

I can't see them losing in Vienna. Austria are woeful.
