Exactly 3 goal win needed. Taut.
I don't think so. I think that site just works out how many more points we would need right now to match their percentage. So the 17 points means we would need to be sitting on 1881 points for instead of 1864, right now.

Our final percentage depends on both teams scores and that will depend on how high scoring it is. If we can restrict Adelaide to 50 points, then we would need to win by 19 points. The higher scoring it is the more we need to win by.

This is true.

Forgive my lack of critical thinking in this post :oops:

96-73 would get us ahead if Melbourne, or something like 105-80. We've hardly cracked 100 all year, so something around the 4 goal margin mark, with us keeping them under 80 will work. Hard to do with how easily they score. They live an over the top/out the back east goal, and that seems to be the way we always get scored against at subi.
