The Crows knew that they would only be a chance to play finals football if Collingwood was beaten by Hawthorn on Friday night (tick) and Richmond by the Sydney Swans on Saturday (No).
They then would have had to beat the Saints by enough to give them a superior percentage to the winner of the clash between West Coast and Gold Coast, which will unfold as the Crows warm up.
The eyes may still be on the Gold Coast match but the result will mean little to them as the percentage will only mean the difference between ninth and tenth now.
St Kilda has one last chance to get off last place. We may have more wooden spoons than any other club but that doesn't mean we don't care. Despite the penalty of losing the coveted #1 draft pick choice, we would love to win this and avoid the dishonour of yet another spoon.
So I'm hoping that the Crows may be a little dispirited after losing their chance to play in finals and the Saints are up for it. Who knows - maybe an upset ???
