We can still make the finals!!!!

[Lance Uppercut]

Mathematics never lies. Essendon can make the finals and give Hirdy & Sheeds a finals sendoff!!

Brisbane must do no better than draw against Geelong, and they've already had 2 for the year, but a loss with Geelong on the rebound is the most likely outcome.

Freo also must do no better than draw against Port- at AAMI. Given Freo's road record and Port's current form, we are ON here.

St Kilda can have a draw with Richmond. We would most likely have to pass their percentage anyway, but a loss to Richmond would take that uncertainty out. And look who Richmond beat last week!!

Now it gets a bit tricky.

Collingwood will need to beat Adelaide by 151 pts

Essendon will need to beat West Coast by 202 pts to pass Adelaide's percentage, while passing St Kilda's on the way. For every 3 points less than 151 that Adelaide lose by, Essendon would need to win by 4 more, ie 147 pts Adel loss, 206 pts Ess win.

That would see the top 8

Geelong    72
Port         60
West Coast  56
Hawks     56  (after beating Syd)
Coll          56
Kangas     52 (after losing to Bulldogs)
Sydney    46 (as above)
Ess         44 (just pipping Adel on % as discussed)

That would see 5th vs 8th Elimination Final at the 'G' Collingwood vs Essendon!! Actually there are some other scenarios that can see Coll finishing 5th if Hawks lose, and then Kangas win by a big margin. 80 pts should do it

Should I book the tickets now?

[drew_j]

So we just have to beat Westcoast by a lazy 35 goals.

 

[Bomberland06]

We'll do it for Hirdy.

 

[Sam the RAMA fan]

Hehehe!
Gave me a good laugh!

 

[drew_j]

Hehe, like last week?

 

[Tambu]

Hehe, like last week?

[Longy413]

Love your work Lance.

 

[Boris_Bewick]

o rly?

Haha yeah Lance how could you possibly be serious

 

[monty1104]

its not technically an impossibility. What happens if the whole WCE team is hit my a debilitating virus just minutes before the match and they cant change their team. It is highly unlikely, but not impossible.

They might get the flu from all those horse dr...oh nevermind.

Book 'em Lance.

 

[Dr Moose]

I know it's harsh but if this season was really a flu-stricken horse you wouldn't make it suffer any longer. Anyway, I've got Cowboys in form and some Wallabies to occupy my September with
