How We Want Cards To Fall

Post: # 626639Post Newman »

We beat Adelaide and Dons of course. But we don't beat Adelaide by too much as we want them to finish 5th and Collingwood 6th. Only percentage separates them. If my calculations are correct - assuming Collingwood beats Port and Adelaide beats Dogs .... we play Magpies in final at MCG and Swans play Crows. Are my calculations correct? Just want to avoid an AAMI final. Good on ya Blues!

Freo is it? Either way you'd think they'd win. Just want Adelaide's % to stay ahead of them.

Adelaide play Dogs in Round 22 at AAMI and so Dogs could win.

We could be 7 with Crows 6

If we lose to the Crows we could finish 8 with them 6.

Then again if the Dogs win we would be 8 and them 5...

Lots of variations are possible...

I would of thought if we beat the crows tomorrow, we will be a big chance to play them at home in week 1 (as i would be on the dogs to beat them next wee). We would finish 6th and they would be 7th ??

Big game tomorrow people !

disagree think crows better than 50 50 at home........Dogs of late have played quite poor.

IMHO just like yours

5th or 8th long term on the basis of being able to stay in Melb as you will then avoid Geelong until the GF.

win 2 and will prob finish 6 or 7 which makes it a little difficult and possibly play Adel or syd in Melb (depending on other results)
Saints to win 2
WB def Adel
Coll Def Freo
Syd Def Bris 50/50

If happen to lose to Adel and def Ess and Bris d Sy 7th v Adel
Syd def Bris finish 8th v Coll

Here is a question -going in to final game - win finishe 7th and go to Adel lose and finish 8th and stay in Melb - what do you do???

I for one want to win as many games as possible. Not sure we are good enough to start manipulating the draw.
