1st week of the finals

[locky801]

I don't think there is an actual figure... % isn't just decided by winning margin otherwise we would have Point Difference rather than %. St Kilda need to keep Essendon to a pretty low score AND win by a big margin.

well thats happening

As joker said...96 points I think was the call....

[Wedgie]

Scores are currently 118 to 38, if St Kilda score the next 11 points or more without Essendon scoring they're in the 4.

[Wedgie]

Bloody hell, come on Essendon!

[Wedgie]

Crikey, if the Saints get the next one they'll be 4th on the ladder.

[Wedgie]

Saints currently 4th on the ladder. ****!

[Wedgie]

lol, first time Ive ever seen a team flood and play tempo football when they're 101 points up.

[RoosterMarty]

Shocking effort by Essendon, they handed the Saints a top 4 spot.

[Wedgie]

Its official, Saints are 4th.
Cats v Saints at the MCG on Sunday

[Thiele]

Looks Like Adelaide vs Collingwood next saturday afternoon

[Wedgie]

Fri Hawks v Bulldogs MCG
Sat arvo Crows v Collingwood Aami
Sat night Sydney v Kangaroos Telstra Stadium (Olympic stadium)
Sun arvo Cats v Saints MCG

[Thiele]

This how i think next weekend will unfold

Bulldogs vs Hawthorn next Friday

Adelaide vs Collingwood Saturday Afternoon

Sydney vs Kangaroos Saturday night

Geelong vs St Kilda next Sunday

[the joker]

******* Useless essendon. if Rama kicked that goal when he hit the post saints needed 4 more goals

[Sploosh]

That was pretty pathetic. You wouldn't think Essendon would have allowed St K to win by so much, but you have to wonder with such a rubbish non-effort by Essendon?

Not really, considering they only had 23 players left in their squad that were fit the standard of side they put together wouldn't have beaten Central, it was always on the cards.

[the joker]

just for the second and third week of the finals.

the winner of adelaide and Collingwood will play
the loser of St Kilda and Geelong at telstra if crows win and at the mcg if collingwood win

and the winner loser of hawthorn vs Western bulldogs
will play the winner of Sydney and North Melbourne. that game will be at the Mcg

the third week of finals all finals will be at the MCG.
probably will be

Geelong Vs western bulldogs

Hawthorn Vs St kilda/ crows

So who was the fit player that missed selection? He'd feel pretty good about himself

[Macca19]

Craziest final round - if not any round - in the history of the game. Everything you think wouldnt happen actually happened.

Hope no Crowies bought plane tickets!

[Hondo]

Hope no Crowies bought plane tickets!

Well, if they listened to all the media (here and in Vic) on Sat night they would have. C7 declared the top 4 locked and the AFL web-site started pumping out the Crows v Cats articles.

As soon as I heard a 15 goal win was what the Saints needed I wished I hadn't started my Crows v Cats thread

Still, it needed a great effort from the Saints and a no-show by the Bombers. And that's what we got. It was last week's shocker v St Kilda that ultimately cost us we should have made sure they stayed out of the picture.
