2014 Non Eagles Discussions Thread

ACL for Macaffer as well, shame for both of them.

 

[The Dodger]

I actually like the idea of a Robbie Gray Brownlow.
Has a lot of attributes that remind me of GAJ.

Was who he was compared to when he started playing before all of the injuries took there toll.

 

[Small Moves]

Funny. Richmond just can't seem to put the Saints away.

Let's hope it's equally hard for Adelaide to do so next week.

Let's hope it's equally hard for Adelaide to do so next week.

Was just thinking that. It would do us a big favour.

I missed the last three quarters of the Richmond game. Did the Saints play well to get back into or did Richmond take their foot off the pedal?

 

[West Coast 06]

Actually don't think Richmond took their foot off the pedal as much as they all started running hard forward when they got the ball and neglected to run hard the other way when they lost it.

This allowed Saints to capitalise but don't know that either team played that well. (Watched the second and fourth quarters not the whole game, but that was my take)

Things started going downhill for Richmond after Cotchin the sook gave away that cheap free. That's where the Saints started to close the lead.

Saints started to kick straight and the Tigers started missing some. Same scoring shots for most of the day.

 

[MIKE85]

Didn't see the game yesterday, are the Saints any chance of not getting belted by 100+ against the crows? I heard on the radio this morning, that if we win by a little, the crows will still have to keep the saints to only 20 or 30 points to be able to catch our percentage? Does it matter what the opposition score? Is it just the final margin, or is better for the crows to win say 100-20 then it is 150-70?

Yes it matters what the opposition scores.

It's worked out with points for/points against. So it's very difficult to try and predect what each team needs to win by and hold their opponent to, when there are four unknowns (how much each of WCE/CG/ADL/STK score).

Lenny's last game for the saints so i can see them playing well but not winning so i don't think Crows will win by 100+.

Yeah I did a quick ladder predictor thing (a little limited in the margin ranges) But if we win by 30, and crows win by 100, we still make it, if we win by 12 (the only other option apart from 1) and they win by 100, they make it. Read in the finals thread that they will need to win by about 13 goals more than we beat Gold coast by.

Another of our 2006 premiership team has retired, Quinten Lynch has pulled the pin

 

[JADED]

Would love for him to get 1 last game. Kicked 5 goals in the VFL on the weekend. Come on Buckley, all these injuries, pin your hopes on the Q, after all, "its a f*kkin young boys dream"

Does that just leave Butler and Waters from 06?

Foot off pedal, cue in rack, stars on bench , firm eye on next week....

If we win by 30, Adelaide will most likely have to win by at least 110.

Here's a spreadsheet. Insert the scores into the yellow section and go for your life.

 

[SpaceClef]

We have to worry more about Richmond winning or us losing than Adelaide IMO

 

[Jafa]

Erm - Lol Essendon.

 

[ep2018]

Oh great, more incentive for Richmond to win today... they will finish 7th and play at the MCG if they win.
