One win away from a home final
With Collingwood going down, one more win guarantees us sixth spot and a "home" final against Swans or Pies.
If Adelaide or North lose we finish fifth and still play Pies or Swans or Crows.
If Crows AND roos lose we finish fourth and play Cats.
I don't want to think about what will happen if we lose.

Re: One win away from a home final
If every top side wins we could play the pies at the G on Sunday is my guess. That was what a lot wanted but they thought we would be 8th not 5th. I still think we will finish 6th and play Collingwood or Sydney.my les foote wrote:With Collingwood going down, one more win guarantees us sixth spot and a "home" final against Swans or Pies.

A chance of a TD final too!!
If there are 4 finals in Melbourne the game that involves an Interstate side and NOT Collingwood will get the Dome..and that very well could be us v Adelaide or us v Sydney
If that happens we will be playing Sat night however, as they cant play 3 consecutive gamest the G..the TD will need to be Sat night to break it up
If we play Collingwood, would almost certainly be Sat night at the G. I can hear Channel 10 drooling from here

This means no interstate final for us, at all no matter how far we go.
4 Adelaide 22 13 9 0 2021 1821 110.98 52
5 St Kilda 22 13 9 0 2059 1934 106.46 52
6 Sydney 22 12 9 1 2061 1860 110.81 50

8 Collingwood 22 12 10 0 2261 2038 110.94 48
We could play in Adelaide in week 2.
Win it for HIM!

IF we get collingwood I for one AM SICK of getting Colllingwood on the rebound only to bend over and allow Malthouse and that pack of a shyte side to overrun us - wesimply HAVE to stand up now...geezus weve lost twice to them already by small margins which is bad enough...SURELY the REAL St Kilda will finally come to play Collinwgood and actually apply some pressure????

The "AFL economic rules" are enforced in that event.

Re: One win away from a home final
if we lose to essendon we've really no business being in the finals. going on what i saw last week, we'll win and win well.my les foote wrote:I don't want to think about what will happen if we lose.
sure, they'll have something to play for in seeing off rama etc, but let's not forget that the stakes are high for us as well.
collingwood at the mcg would be a great challenge and a chance to atone for two miserable and depressing performances against them this year.
if it happens i hope we tear them a new one.
mcg, collingwood, finals, the harvey factor ... they don't come much bigger.

Well at least it shows that we have the most altruistic supporters - happy to throw away the home advantage in a final just to allow an extra 40,000 maniacal pie fans to inspire their team and influence the umps!
All i can say is please scream your loudest those lucky enough to get there!
