Go Blues.


Freo game follows ours.

Fox did say it was cramping after initially saying hammy. Let's hope it was only cramps.

I didn't realise that, I thought our game was the last one.
Are we expecting any players back this week?

On the radio they said Cerra was a possibility, and since Fantasia was a Test this week, he may be ready. Raz would be a natural replacement for Durdin, but it's been a while. Lots of those 1-2 weeks you'd think we would gamble on for an EF but would we do it for a final round do-or-die? Tough calls. I hope we're brave enough to keep playing the youngsters. Billy Wilson in for Durds would be ballsy, I hope we consider it.

no chance on some of them. cfc were playing games with that injury list. quads and hammies don't take 1-2 weeks.

i'd say marchbank doesn't get into that backline. fantasia for durdin

All Teams above us are expected to Win and win easily!

The Dogs will Smash the Giants with ease

The Hawks will win with ease

Brisbane will win with Ease

Geelong will Win ( playing a Soft opponent )


This basically means that our Fate is already Sealed, even if we lose to the Saints!


We are most likely going to play a Cut throat final At the Gabba against Brisbane. The Worst possible outcome for us but this is the price you pay for losing so many easy Games.

We will only drop out of 8 if we lose to the Saints and Freo beats Port ( its a 50/50 Game) but Freo at home should Win, port has no Houston, So we will need to beat the Saints to make sure we make it.

Not necessarily.

Bring the same pressure and intend. We know the group is good enough, just need to come and play the way we know we can.

If the Dogs beat the Giants then Port doesn't have anything to play for, they will be sitting in 2nd win or lose.
The only catch is %.......if the Giants get smashed, Port just has to try and not get flogged also.
Not really enough for them to go out and go hard for the win.

We want GWS to win or lose by a small amount, they're playing for a home final (even though 3rd would give them a game in Sydney), I still can't see them getting smashed.
If this happens then Port has to go all out for the win also.

Either way we still have to go out and beat the Aints to make sure and to get on a roll.

Please don't bring back any half fit players, or players short of a gallop. We know how that ends. Play the kids.

Even if we make fourth, we’ll be playing Sydney in Sydney so just as bad as playing Brisbane in Brisbane.

Let's just worry about winning this game first.

Having said that I'd love it if WBD and Hawks lost and us and Freo won.

Yes if the Dogs beat the Giants then I expect Freo to beat Port.
Even if the Giants win and Port are playing for a home final I'd still back Freo to win at home.
Either way I think we have to beat St Kilda.
