Honestly, Freo losing in Melbourne to North in their current form and Carlton taking St Kilda a little lightly and getting rolled isn't the most unlikely scenario in the world.

Which would only take the Bombers to win their last two and they're in! Unfortunately, and though I am hopeful more than anything else, that is probably less likely than the above scenarios playing out. But until it is MATHEMATICALLY POSSIBLE, I'll cling to it.

(when) nth beat freo in melb, and stk beat carlton..... even if we do win both , percentage would keep us out anyway i guess... theres a lot of shifting to remove that 96 pt beating.

However unlikey (and undeserved)....

Round 22.
Carlton lose to Gold Coast 12
North beat Freo by 60

Round 23
Essendon beat Collingwood by 60.
Melbourne beat Fremantle by 12
Carlton and St Kilda draw

Essendon make the 8!

What I'm saying is there is still a chance! ;)
