If we were to beat Brisbane, we might be 1 game out of the 8...Just went down a ladder analysis rabbit hole and found out that since 2012, this is the equal closest the AFL ladder has been in terms of W/L in 10 seasons. Particularly for the 12 teams ranging between 6th and 17th on the ladder.
At the start of round 16 only 4 wins separates 6th from 17th, which has only happened one other time in the past 10 seasons (2014).
The average gap is 6.3 wins, and the widest margin was a whopping 9 game variance (2016 and 2012).
Probably a lot of conclusions can be made from that, but 1 thing is for sure, if a team goes on a heater, or goes ice cold in the last 8 games they could still drastically change their ladder/draft position.

Bulldogs father-son prospect Sam Darcy is a No. 1 pick contender in this year’s draft. And Luke Beveridge has issued a pre-emptive strike against rival clubs.
Luke Beveridge had issued a pre-emptive strike against clubs who might bid on father-son Sam Darcy with the No.1 overall pick, adamant the Crows unfairly denied Riley Thilthorpe a $10,000 investment package last year.
The 203cm key position-forward ruckman, and son of Dogs board member Luke Darcy, is considered a real chance to land in the first two spots after six goals for Vic Metro last weekend.
As revealed by the Herald Sun last year, Adelaide was happy to follow its own draft order to bid on Dogs NGA player Jamarra Ugle-Hagan despite knowing Dogs list manager Sam Power would match that bid.
It meant Ugle-Hagan was handed the mantle as the No.1 overall pick and accepted a $10,000 investment package from AFL sponsor as the first player chosen.
No.2 pick Thilthorpe has shown he could easily have been that player, given his exceptional early displays, but Ugle-Hagan was, by consensus, the best kid in the land.
Now history could repeat, with the Dogs sure to match any bid for Darcy, with Beveridge suggesting those kind of tactics were “vindictive” and against the best interests of the player who ultimately went to that club.
North Melbourne is set to have the No.1 overall pick on ladder order and could bid on both Pies father-son Nick Daicos and Darcy before taking the third-best player in SA midfielder Jason Horne.
Beveridge told 3AW Darcy might get bid on with the No.1 overall pick.
“He might and it was interesting last year with “Marra”, ultimately he gets the NAB portfolio, he gets the cash reward, he gets the recognition, with the club in Adelaide which nominated him and Riley Thilthorpe misses out on that,” he said.
“Personally if you know the Dogs are going to take him and you have the No 1 pick, wouldn’t you want your lad who is coming in to get that and let your lad have that even though you want to make us pay. There are not that many vindictive list managers and recruiters in the comp.”
The Dogs have their first and fourth-round picks but could easily trade in more points, so they will not have an issue with matching that bid.
Beveridge said he was open to playing Ugle-Hagan in his forward set-up after a month-long delay with concussion and VFL scheduling issues with Covid.
“I think the circumstance that escapes (media) is a month and a half ago we named him as emergency, he was running out games in a healthier fashion and was really productive and we loved the way he was going about it and he got the concussion and missed a month of footy and now he’s coming back into action. He had a tough day at Coburg on the weekend, but he had some valuable contributions.
“So now we are looking for him to play some footy and we are hoping he makes his debut some time in the near future but we will see how he goes. We are not wedded to any particular formation on our forward line. He plays well and he will be considered.”

Yep, in fact mathematically we could land anywhere between 11th and 17th at the end of this round depending on the margins and some surprise resultsIf we were to beat Brisbane, we might be 1 game out of the 8...
Or how about he says..well if a club at the top of the order wants him then as tgey have a pick before we do then they are entitled to draft him and we wish him well...Luke Beveridge on father-son prospect Sam Darcy and Jamarra Ugle-Hagan

Noble likes to trade down so who knows.
Their list is a basket case and in need of players in 24-30 bracket more so than GC.
They cant attract any decent players even after throwing massive offers out.
They should throw a bucket load at MCrouch and we get band 1
The difference this year is Barrett supports NM and would champion the trade if it suited their cause
My family and I often vote for the most punchable head in footy, luke beveridge has had my vote since 2015.

Would be a bit of a conundrum for us though - we are crying out for that elite mid an Darcy is a forward..but wow, can he play. Thilthorpe and Darcy - extremely talented twin towers up forward...but it won't happen. The dogs will 100% match any bid..they literally would be idiots not to for the value they would get by taking himIf we end up with pick 1 or 2 we should bid on Darcy. Absolutely have to after Bevo's huge sook.
If we were to beat Brisbane, we might be 1 game out of the 8...
Well, there's one at least....
