It would take quite an effort, but I suppose they're up to the task. How were we not competitive against them a couple of weeks ago?

If Melbourne miss we have to as well, so I don't really have a dog in that fight.

Actually if Melbourne lose by enough, and we win by enough we can finish above them in the 8.

We'd also need West Coast to lose in that situation.

However if Essendon lose as well we can also jump them regardless.

So there's a tiny chance that Essendon and Melbourne choke their way out of finals for us and West Coast.

The only problem with relying on us to win by 100 is the fact we can't kick straight. We'd need to have at least 80 scoring shots minimum for that to be even remotely plausible

 

[Hayes4PM]

Come on Pies! Come on Freo!

 

[saintbill]

Petracca is going to be a very special player.

 

[Saint Watto]

Pies are melting...Dees have kicked the last 4.

 

[STK2020]

Did Brisbane stay in the rooms after half time.
You shit excuse of a footy club , gonna totally F@#k my multi .

 

[Hayes4PM]

Come onnnn Pies hold on. Come on Freo. Daddy needs a new finals campaign.

Pies aren't going to win by enough to make it relevant.

Can't quite see us beating Richmond by 90 odd tomorrow.

Still, be good to give Dees supporters a bit of a fright. Also opens up a chance for West Coast to overtake them, which doesn't look impossible with Adelaide resting some important players.

Everything on Freo now!

 

[puppy_dog7]

How embarrassing is it that Mason Cox is a better set shot then 90% of our team.
Just goes to show what happens if you have a simple set shot routine.

Don Pyke: 'We won't be resting anyone...'
*proceeds to rest everyone*

Thanks Don!!

 

[Saint Watto]

Pies meltdown happening in turbo mode.

 

[StFly]

Lol the past 20 seconds in the Pies match.

 

[TheBalls]

North have gone from pick 1 to (probably) pick 4 in just over a half of footy.

 

[The Jack]

Tom McDonald doesn't mind a good sook.

 

[burningdwarf]

If we can't get in, I hope WC can knock Melbourne out of the 8.

Would be hilarious.

 

[Sainter88]

Where's that absolute toss pot who was giving us the sh* ts after the Melbourne match?

 

[cartel]

Melbourne seem to have a lot of whingers, but he does stand out.

 

[Saint Watto]

Pies have steadied...should win from here.....think the Dees were 41 down at one point.....like us against them a few weeks back...it takes a lot of petrol out of the tank to get back close let alone get up and win.

I always use the "magical 30" formula...if a side is 30 or more in front at any point...they usually win.

40 or more in front......increases the win rate dramatically.

 

[66sainter]

Didn't realise how much of a flog Tom Mcdonald is, complains to the umpire at every opportunity, had a massive crack at Cox after missing that goal but has made 3 horrible turnovers this quarter, massive campaigner!

 

[SaintSteele9]

So it's about five goals for the Eagles to get in... Gives them plenty of impetus in a game where Adelaide would be more concerned with self-preservation!

 

[theprospect]

Not overly fussed if we don't make the 8, I don't expect we will thanks to our % yet again but FMD I would love so much for Melbourne not to make it after the massive media wank-fest over them and their floggish supporters going on about them playing finals. Them missing would be the most Melbourne thing ever.

Melbourne are imposters and dont deserve to be in the finals but neither do the WCE downhill skiiers

+1.

 

[SaintSteele9]

Even after everything this season has provided, there's an absolute ****load riding on all three games on the last day of the H&A. Unbelievable!

 

[Saint Shags]

Haha and I called them losing to the Pies as well!
