Geelong basically lost the game in 2 patches where eagles kicks some quick goals... Interesting.

Same as last week. Hawks kicked last 4 to win the game. And Dees kicked two patches of 5 in a row throughout the game to all but win.

First sensible thing he’s said all year

Geelong will leak plenty of goals this year. Will be lucky to get into the 8 (mind you not sure who will replace them but we will be top 4 - bookmark it).

Where’s Wylee buzza to save them?

He's like a slightly less ugly Ben Brown but shit.

Freo the only non-Victorian side not in the top 8. Cue "AFL commission on how to help Victoria" launch

Brisbane?

Naitanui continues to be one of my favourite opposition players to watch, right up there with most exciting players in the comp.

He’s a superstar.

6/8 non-Victorians in the top 8 - 75%
2/10 Victorians in the top 8 - 20%

Imo we will end up with 50/50 non-Victorians & Victorians making the finals.

Brisbane?

Whoops!! Missed them!

Poor old Rance he's unusually clumsy.

Must admit I take pleasure in watching Geelong and Dangerfield suffer. Although, I doubt Dangerfield even cares given his extreme narcissism.

Only 2 Vic teams in the top 8. The VFL must be getting nervous.

Or they realised that this year an interstate team has to win the competition otherwise its gonna start to look like the whole competition is rigged....

True. If I had to face anyone in the GF (non-Vic) I would hope like hell it's not GWS. The VFL must be getting really nervous with the lack of expected success of GWS and GC. If you face GWS in a GF you can guarantee the umpiring will be diabolical.

 

[CrowsB4hoes]

West Coast could win their next 5. All games very winnable.

 

[Mike Smyth]

Richmond IN, Hawthorn or GC OUT. Is the current top 8, apart from order, complete?

Surely Geelongs home games get them in too... I mean, I hope not, but they’ll still be absurdly hard to beat at their crappy home ground.

Let's pray they don't get in just so we can watch Scott's bulbous shaped head explode.

We need it to be a showdown gf. They will let us kill each other with no free kicks. Atleast it will be fair.

Greatest photo ever. Looks like a clip from a John Holmes flick:

No way. Port is one of the darlings of the VFL. They have shown that they are willing to cheaply throw away state loyalties to further their own good.

Squiggle projection is GWS, Crows, Port & Richmond all finishing top 4 with 15-7 records... & Carlton winning the spoon.

Have Sydney, Hawthorn, Melbourne & Cats making the finals too.

This means they have Gold Coast & West Coast dropping out for Richmond & Geelong

That sounds reasonable to me.

I currently have Gold Coast definitely out, and Hawthorn and West Coast battling for 8th. Richmond, Geelong and even Fremantle a chance to come in.
