Is the final round/possible top 8 positioning always this exciting, or have I just not paid attention since 2013?!


Don't blame you.
I am much the same.

If Tigers win all 4 games, I will eat my own shit, film it and put it on YouTube. :wink:

2 games in the bag and they have Hawks and Junkies left to play...

Too early to set the table?


Not at all. They will drop one of those games. They are too flaky and injury prone.

Kind of like another team I know....

3 down and the junkies left...

Your saving grace may be that they're comfortably in the finals now and may rest a few


Don't count your chickens just yet - the Druggies are going to have a caretaker coach this week and they will want to go out with a bang after the shit they dished up yesterday. I think Richmond are likely to rest a few as you say.

Regardless, I am cooking up a good one in preparation. I might be the one dishing up the shit this week! :lol:

One thing I was definitely right about weeks ago - there is no way we would miss the finals with 13 wins. That's all I care about this week. :thumbsup:

I remember last year was pretty exciting with Brisbane needing to win by 23+ points over West Coast to secure the top 4 position over the Dogs on percentage, which they ended up doing by 0.5% after winning by 38 points.

Apart from that, I got nuthin.

I just had to look it up as I couldn't remember what happened. Wow - what an amazing set of results to decide the final 5! :eek:

It looks like we were lucky to play Hawthorn in the GF in the end - Melbourne were on a roll winning the last 4 games of the season and then their first 2 finals by 118pts and 76pts. If only Jimmy Stynes hadn't run across the mark hey?! :yikes:

It’s possible but he’ll still kick all the others and end up with 4.1…

Ya know….

IF….the Hawks beat the Dogs…?

prediction:

and they come out playing like the Harlem
Globetrotters…!

smash the Colon-Woods by 8 goals…!

Certainly our odds one way or another appear better this week ...

- Dees are > Pies (despite having recently lost to them)
- Pies maybe had a bit of a dent to their confidence after losing to Swans
- Hawks likely to rebound after an awful showing last week
- Hawks likely to perform for their captain's final game ever
- Hawks game is in Tasy where as you said Dogs don't have a good record
- Cerra might be back and Setterfield did well last week and Weitering gets another game under his belt
- Hard to see Blues losing 4 on the trot
- Our odds much better this week
- Surely Carlton can't possibly @#$%&! this one up??

Raises an interesting point though

I would imagine the players will not be allowed to keep abreast of how that game is going? (no phones, all staff to keep their gobs shut...)

Voss would not want any distractions

But if Hawks are 1,046 points ahead at 3pm maybe Voss tells the lads? ("Hey guys, can that kamikaze approach I was telling you about earlier")

Jarman Impey out for the Hawks. So they are resting players now. Not ideal.

It'll be over around qtr time.

I do also wonder if the players will be kept informed or not.

Do they still put the scores up for the other games on the screens??
