Although the Swans have lost just once, to defending premiers Mangoplah-Cookardinia United-Eastlakes, two draws means they are destined to finished behind the Goannas and take on Coolamon in the major semi final.
But after defeating MCUE by a goal in round three, Griffith's form has shown no signs of dropping off and will start favourites to beat Narranadera and Turvey Park before beginning their first finals campaign in some time.
"I don't think we've finished second in a really long time. If you don't go into a game with the belief you have the potential to win, you've already lost," Fuller said.
"You have to believe you have the team (to win) and in finals anything can happen, especially with how tight the comp is at the moment."
