Freo has beaten the Weagles, takes them to 56 points, Which means they overtake us. The Weagles are ahead of us on percentage already.

Whatever happens from now on, we're eighth, nothing we can do to change that now.

It's just a matter of where we're going, and it's down to either Sydney or to Perth to play Freo.

If Adelaide win tomorrow, then they go to 56 points, but with better percentage, that'll push the shockers to 6th, Weagles 7th -Week 1 Finals Derby. On top of that, Adelaide will book themselves fourth spot, against...that's right, the Power Chokers. Derbies all round.

What do you guys think? Would it be better for us to go up to Sydney, or across to Perth, considering we walloped the shockers by 10 goals just two weeks ago...Sydney looked pretty shaky against the Dees today.

Assuming Brisbane beats the Doggies as expected, here are the two possible ladders

Adelaide Win:

port
coll
bris
adel
syd
freo
wce
ESS

Adelaide Loss:

port
coll
bris
syd
adel
freo
wce
ESS

Adelaide have a lot (4th spot) to play for, so I'd doubt they'd hold back for this game. I'd frankly prefer not to travel west, so I say this with great difficulty, but

go crows!!!??

phew, eugck, ugh..okay I said it...

If that happens Freo will finish above the Crows with more wins.

I want Sydney, full stop.

Sydney won't have O'Loughlin, Saddington, or Ball. Without those three we're a chance. It's just a matter of playing all four quarters against them.

Should we win, it would also set up the possibility of another crack at the Scum assuming the Bears can knock them off.

sure....a match against sydney would be great after hopefully the crows win...but assuming we somehow beat sydney...we would then play the loser of port vs adelaid @ AAMI!... if a miracle did occur, we would then play either brisbane or collingwood...

can we safely say....were f**ked?

If Port win, then I'll get some money from a tipping comp.

If Adelaide win, it will be better for Essendon.

Hmm, who to barrack for
