Oppo Camp Non Eagles Discussion thread - 2017 edition (continued in Part 2)

Hit Adelaide hard physically early, understandably they'll not go in hard for the rest of the game to preserve themselves for finals.

There's no excuse not to make finals now.

We suck is technically still an excuse.

 

[ioppolo]

We'll lead by 6 goals with 3 minutes left and let Adelaide score 3 junktime goals.

 

[whatis]

Gawn destroyed by the big American too for the lols. Now just up to our pea hearts but at least the game means something now.

 

[Crimson King]

Oh lawd, pls let us face Port if we make the finals. I would back us in against them.

 

[2006_Eagles]

Exactly 3 goal win needed. Taut.

 

[new breed]

At least we have one final chance in our own hands ......

What an epic send off for Subi

 

[JADED]

Only 0.9% behind. (and a win of course)

 

[ioppolo]

If our match against Melbourne ended 30 seconds earlier we'd be in the box seat. Funny that.

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.

Ben Brown one goal behind Kennedy in the Coleman

Missed two easy late as well, he could have gone past JK

This is true.

Forgive my lack of critical thinking in this post

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.

I think we will grow more by missing out - undeserved !!

 

[byebyexenxen]

Carlton doing ok too.

Been out all day and just seen the results

Part of me wishes our season was rubbed out already, part is me excited

Gah, bloody footy eh?

 

[ioppolo]

If we won the premiership, it'd be the worst H & A season by a premier in history. Absolute worst.

 

[lewigie]

Has Port still not beaten a top 8 team this year? A team that will finish in the top 8 I mean

Possibly us.

And the Swans in round 1.

Eagles just posted on Facebook the margins we need for each score

Buddy now leading the Coleman

 

[lewigie]

Boooooooo . This same shit happened last year or the year before. Franklin turned it on last round of the year

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Talia isn't playing, we should be able to get JK 4 at least
