As far as I can read, I think almost everyone's analysis is off the mark.

ASSUMING the Pies beat the Hawks and the Swans beat the Lions:

If we beat Freo, we finish 6th and Freo finish 7th, we host Freo at MCG.

If we lose to Freo, we finish 8th and play Sydney in Sydney.

Ladder:

5. Sydney 48 106.5
6. Freo 48 103.8
7. Hawthorn 46 111.1
8. Carlton 44 108.8

With Sydney a lock to beat Brisbane there are 4 scenarios:

1. Carlton win, Hawthorn win

Syd 52
Haw 50
Carl 48
Fre 48

2. Carlton lose, Hawthorn lose

Syd 52
Fre 52
Haw 46
Carl 44

3. Carlton win, Hawthorn lose

Syd 52
Carl 48
Fre 48
Haw 46

4. Carlton lose, Hawthorn win

Syd 52
Fre 52
Haw 50
Carl 44

As another poster said, scenario 3 seems the best.

True in theory, or if Freo belt us by a lot more than Sydney beat Bris, and make up 3%

freo @#$%&! us in the ass today

bastards

i say we tank R22 - let freo smash us and hope brisbane beat sydney - so we can get freo to 5th and us in 8th then smash freo at subi in week 1 of the finals

either way tank and if sydney beat brisbane we play syd in syd at ANZ which is similar to MCG

i would rather play SYd at ANZ than hawks at MCG

no point winning R22

The ball is in our court. We need to win on Friday night. Then we can fill the MCG with Blues fans for the first final in Melbourne in a long time. Best case is we play Freo again :)

If Sydney win and secure 5th spot and a final up in Sydney

does this mean all the finals in Melbourne will be at the MCG?

because a few seem to reckon that if we play Freo in Melbourne it will be at Etihad

if there are 4 finals in Melbourne I know we will draw the short straw and play at Etihad but if there are 3 then surely they can all be at the MCG (Fri night/Sat day or Sat night/Sun day)

Round 22
Collywobbles beat Hawthorn
Sydney beat Brisbane
and most importantly
The Mighty Blues beat the Anchor Wankers

=

HOME FINAL AGAINST THE ANCHOR WANKERS !!!

And this means the passionate, blue-blooded, Carlton supporters will create an atmosphere so potent, so ferocious, that the anchors will be truly awkstruck. After seeing the re-kindled, inflamed support of the Carlton faithful, freo will have no other option but to fold, like so many before them who faced
us in September

:)
