Adelaide beat Kangaroos
Sydney lose to Collingwood or Melbourne
Collingwood lose to Essendon (can be Sydney if Melbourne beat Sydney)
Fremantle lose to Essendon or West Coast
Brisbane lose to Geelong or Western Bulldogs

Then before we play the Showdown on the Sunday (everyone else in the eight has already played) ladder will be

Port 68
Adelaide 56
Colloingwood 52 or 56
Sydney 52 or 56
Fremantle 52 or 56
Brisbane 50 or 54
West Coast 52 or 56
Esendon 52 or 56

If percentages stay the same Adelaide are second before we play the Showdown.

We really need Collingwood to win as its unlikely Melbourne will beat Sydney.

Brisbane are unlikely to lose but you never know.

I know I have too much time on my hands

If we drop 1 game, I doubt that we will finish 2nd with the scearios that you have presented.

We must win the final 2 games to show that we are contenders rather than pretenders.

I'm confident we will.

Think positive.

Adelaide beat Kangaroos then Port.
Sydney beat Collingwood and Melbourne.


Top 3:

Port 68
Adelaide 60
Sydney 60

First final - Adelaide vs Sydney

5 wins till the premiership.

I'd just like to thank the AFC for keeping 2nd spot warm for us. ;)

Correct, our destiny is in our own hands !!! win the last 2 games & we finish 2nd & have a home final in week one (which will be a sell out)
