Freo or West Coast

[Brant]

Still mathematically possible for us to finish 6th, though incredibly unlikely.

Best hope of finishing 2nd is St Kilda wanting to end the season by launching into their off/preseason with a win over a top 4 side. That determination mixed with a bit of luck with their side all clicking at once meeting West Coast who hopefully aren't fired up after losing today and go into this game rest a bunch of players.

Saints don't even need to win. A draw will do.

Wouldn't we have to lose by about 600+ & other teams would have to win by about 1000+ for this to occur?

I would say mathematically impossible for us to drop out of the top 4!
Would West Coast consider tanking to avoid us and play Fremantle in Perth instead???

It would rely on a few incredibly unlikely results to occur. Not going to happen but mathematically possible.

I guess they could if they really wanted to. They risk Sydney losing (who have the benefit of resting players once they know the results of matches earlier in the day) and then finding themselves in 3rd playing against us at the G.

The top 4 is set in order. I'm 99% certain of it. Though I will be barracking hard for the Saints to cause the upset.
