Sounds like todays results have thrown a big spanner in the works. Very hard to finish top 4 now.

Top 4 gone now.

If i was a north supporter i would be dissapointed if scott didnt rest half a dozen players and throw this game. Playing adelaide in Adelaide is commiting football suicide. What should he do?

Hearing North have been given permission from AFL to rest 10 players.

$2.20 out to $9 . Looks like it.

Is this 'resting business' becoming a farce?

I don't think. It's purely and simply sensible management by clubs that have earned that luxury over the course of the season.

The downside of course is that it likely makes for an uneventful final round. The upside is that all teams in the finals should be as close to as healthy as they could possibly be at this tine of year.

I reckon they should just have a bye round for the last round of the season and give everyone the week off heading into finals.

Hate Jokers in tipping comps.

Most likely upsets - Geelong, Melbourne, maybe Essendon? Even if two of those eventuate you're in strife yeah?

The only way we would play in Adelaide is if - a: Adelaide win, Bulldogs win & we beat Richmond by 100+ or b: Adelaide win, Bulldogs lose & we win.
Highly unlikely.
