Here's my attempt:
  1. Saints - 88pts
  2. Cats - 84 pts
  3. Dogs - 60pts
  4. Crows - 60pts
  5. Lions - 56pts
  6. Pies - 52
  7. Blues - 48
  8. Port - 48
  9. Bummers - 40
  10. Sydney - 36
  11. Hawks - 32
  12. WCE - 24
  13. Roos - 24
  14. Tigers - 20
  15. Freo - 20
  16. Dees - 12
Now, a few things.
Firstly I don't think the Saints will go undefeated. Not sure which one they will drop, but maybe vs Roos?
Secondly, I don't think that the Tiges and Freo will be dumb enough to win 5 games......although now I think about which clubs are involved....anything could happen.

I have gone for who I think are the favourites going into each game.

1st week of finals:
  1. Saint vs Crows
  2. Cats vs Dogs
  3. Lions vs Port
  4. Pies vs Blues
Saints and Cats in prelim, Port and Pipes Eliminated :D:

That leaves us probably playing thr Doggies, as they would be the highest placed loser playing the lowest placed winner, but not sure.

If we played the Dogs I'd feel 50/50 about making a prelim vs playing the Crows in Adelaide (10% Chance).

Then we would go into the Saints side of the draw taking the Dogs spot......or the Cats side of the draw taking the Crows spot........

Dreaming to get here let alone beyond, but the Cats have been less than convincing in their prelim finals and we could do a '99 prelim again. :eek:

Wow, sorted, bring on the GF vs Saints. :D
 
This was my attempt, however keep in mind, as a previous poster mentioned, it depends on which CFC turns up on the day.

Help, I'm stuck in the matrix!

I know most will brush it off, and it seems a bit of a stretch, but unless we play the Crows over in Adelaide in week 1, I like our chances against the other teams fighting for 5th-8th.

As you say, week 2 could likely put us against the Dogs or even the Pies and considering our recent record we would not be without a chance in either game.

I secretly think a prelim this year is not out of the question - the only hurdle it seems is making the finals, and then it all gets pretty easy :o
 
This is my shot, hopefully we have a hard and desperate team that turns up each week to get us here!

16 Melbourne 22 3 19 0 1711 2340 73.12 12
 
So its looking like:

Maggies vs blues MCG (or vice verser)
LIons vs Blues GAbba ( or vice verser)
Adel Vs Blues AMMI ( or vice verser)

They're my opinions on what will happen if we make the elimnation finals.

Found this was fun to do.

This is a possibility if we play to potential and finally get away from up one week down the next.
All the games I have penciled in a win are winable, but ??????

This is what I have come up with. Port, Hawks & Sydney all may win one more or so than predicted, but I wouldn't think it'd be much more than that.

At worse, one of those teams MAY end on the same number of wins as us, and our percentage gets us in - though obviously I think it'll pan out as my ladder predicts.

This wouldn't really be a great scenerio for us at all - travelling to both Brisbane & Adelaide would be a horror run. We'd be lucky to get a win against the Lions but then the Crows would smash us you'd think - still, anything can happen once finals start...

EDIT: Funnily enough, if we drop a game we should win (i.e. Sydney) there will be a lot of criticism and suggestions we aren't good enough for finals, yet it could actually mean we face the Pies & Dogs in Melbourne which would give us a better chance than the above scenerio. (Assuming I am able to accurately predict all remaining games of the season of course;))

I have done the ladder predictor a few times, and i just can't find a way for us to make the 8, unless we win the 3 winnables, Sydney, North & Melbourne, plus either Collingwood, Geelong, Port (@ AAMI), Adelaide. I'm not sure we can do it, we also need Essendon and Port to drop 1 or 2 they shouldn't.

Prove me wrong blues!
