Game Day Non-Swans Game Day Thread (The Finals)

[Punts]

I still think 14-9 will get finals, 1 or 2 upset in the right way it'll get you there outright without percentage as a factor, but you'd want to bank some percentage to be sure though, that's where the the 3rd qtr yesterday was a bit of a missed chance, but we do have Essendon & WC...would need to cash in on those.

The most unlikely part of the equation though, is us actually getting to 14-9 to begin with.

We should have cashed in yesterday

We haven’t belted teams this year at all

Our percentage is garbage , bet we don’t belt either of them

 

[The King!]

bs 50 to get the suns first goal

 

[RilesMacca]

Just hoping to A: see us finish of the year well with a scalp and B: see a cracking finals series without us shitting the bed, cracking game it was just then. Pies still in the box seat imo

 

[The King!]

This is opening up for the Lions to just peak and go back to back I reckon

 

[Jack2Jack]

It's a pretty gross top 6 tbh, Collingwood, Hawthorn, Geelong, GWS all in there. Bulldogs coming into the 8 could only make it more disgusting.
It's a sad state of affairs when watching Brisbane B2B or having to rely on Fremantle and Gold Coast to actually do something are the more preferable options if you do indeed have to go into this finals as a neutral.

Crowd goes wild when the Suns goal

 

[The King!]

Thought this guy was as shit as American sport ?

 

[bloodsbigot]

If I needed any more reason to hate Collingwood then that was it.

 

[TasSixer]

FFS Collingwood, the one time I want you to win. Good for nothing. I can't see us making it, even if we win every game we need some upsets to go our way.

Gee's I'd love that. They deserve it after being ripped off in '23

Our major achievements of late are wins against teams below us & losses against teams below us.
We are shit & have no right to a place in finals.
An example of our shitness is having delisted Francis & Hamling after Longmire mishandled Hamling as a forward only to rookie list him & now have him as a regular defender.
It’s just errors reinforcing errors.

 

[The King!]

Few Pies fans in the main board thread reckon it was fixed against them ha ha

 

[ErrolisGoldun]

Port will cause an upset or two for Kenny’s send off, unlikely for anyone else in bottom 9 to cause any upsets v top 9 (apart from ourselves).

How did the Dees look so good v us and lions and sh&t the bed afterwards?? Thought their season was going to take off. Reverted back to their boring style

 

[The King!]

We can still make it , not like everyone will tip 9 a week from here

 

[wolftone57]

I can't believe Freo actually won. By 2 points but they won. Full compliment for them with Pies down about 5 players. But they won. Lol. Just before they won in 2023 they did exactly the same. Lost some winnable games on the way home.

Still don't rate Freo. Roo many players who are not quite there and if you exploit their handball you kill them. They handball back a lot.

It was.
The whole comp is fixed in their favour as a big VIC club, but today it was fixed but went against the plan.

We only have to win 9 more in a row & we will be

McRae is a spiteful sod

Who says so?

Sadly yes. I still want us there though even if we don't deserve it. Because otherwise I have nothing to watch.

Good on our old friend Nicks leading the way for the Crows, likely a top 4 finish.

F k him I say.
Enemy now. Like Parker.

How can Freo continue with Patrick Voss up forward? His strike rate is terrible. He has kicked 16.18 this season. Last year 7.11

I love this

 

[bedford]

This is the game Freo gets found out. They simply don't have the talent to beat Pies, Crows, Lion's, Cats. I know they beat Crows earlier in the season, at home. At Adelaide Oval good luck so they are lucky they don't play them. Easy draw is about the only thing that may save them. It might come down to Dogs at Marvel in the last. Away from home? Haha.

The only thing that might save them is they have three easy games; Eagles, Port and Carlton. The other two are Lion's (H) and Dogs (A). I think Lion's will flog them even at home. Dogs at Docklands are hard and Freo don't travel well.

Dogs are the other who are in strife.

Love this thread

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

They play a good brand of footy when they're up and going fast, isn't it? Maybe they should play a bit more of that at times. It's a good version of them."

McRae... can you get more sour than that?

 

[The King!]

Daniel Curtin should win the rising star
