Talking Footy

Hey all just wondering who everyone thinks will make the final 8 and what positions? this is mine
1.Geelong
2.West Coast
3.Kangaroos
4.Port Adelaide
5.Sydney
6.Collingwood
7.Hawthorn
8.St Kilda Vs Bulldogs on %

THe bombers will make finals, cause at least one upset.

i reakon the bombers will only win 2 more games this season!

they wont make the 8 sorry dogsact there are to many better sides than the bombers in the league!

I think Brisbane will be in the mix too. Probably the Bulldogs or Saints to drop out.

yeah brisbane are really starting to play some good footy im looking forward to seeing how the final 8 ends up its just so close this year there will definantly be some upsets.

Good night Irene! With two games away in Perth to come, that was a must win Essendon. It would take a major miricle now.

haha its gonna be tough for the poor bombers but you would think they should beat carlton and richmond so who knows!

After having a good look at matters with four rounds to go, here's what I think will happen.

1. Geelong will finish on top and will keep on winning - until round 22 (they'll lose to Brisbane at the Gabba)
2. Hawthorn will not win another game this season
3. Brisbane will not lose another game until the finals at least

In the wash up I think it will finish up something like this (including points)

Geelong (72)
West Coast (60)
Port Adelaide (56)
Collingwood (56)
Brisbane (54)
North Melbourne (52)
Sydney (52)
Western Bulldogs (50)

Then St.Kilda on 46, Hawthorn and Essendon on 44, and Fremantle and Adelaide on 40.

Which means Subiaco and the Gabba get finals in the first week with two in Melbourne.

hey about where the finals are being played dont you think it sucks that geelongs home ground advantage isnt being played at skilled because theres not enough seats! they have to play it at the G or telstra dome i think but i mean they finish top and what sort of advantage is that?

I hope you're wrong about the Lions not losing a game from here on as my team is coming up against them next week.

It's a real shame Skilled Stadium just does not have enough seats for finals. Why has it never been made much bigger? Am I right in thinking the ground also has no lights?

Considering you've been right about almost everything, Im willing to agree with you on this :D

I wonder which team will use the term "mathematically possible" or "if results fall our way" first, in regards to their finals chances. My guess, Essendon. or Bulldogs.

Haha Pies. Good result for the Swans and our top 4 chances. Go Tiges. :D
