O'Loughlin, Hall, Goodes and Ball should be kept off the ground as much as possible if the game is under control. As tempting as it might be for Hall to have a dip at the Coleman - it's more important that he gets through unscathed.

Agree 100%

This will actually be the third year in a row we have played a team well out of finals contention at the MCG in Round 22. Surely that's some kind of stat?

Back on topic - I just watched the last 5 minutes of the Freo game on afl.com.au. Brilliant mark and goal by J.Lo! Dumbfounded that Peckett got caught HTB in the last minute - where did he think he was, out having a Sunday stroll?

Looking for options - obviously not much movement or talk by the Saints at the end - probably exhausted.

Now the Dogs look like they may be out of contention for a final 8 spot. (Still a slim chance to make it). They are one team that was starting to worry me coming into the finals.

Melbourne can be a potential threat now they have their confidence back.

Yeh, but it was the dogs coming home with a wet sail.

It was funny today, we went to the pics and came out at after 4pm. The big screen in the shops had the Ade v Pies, the score was 105 - 79, and I thought good game by the crows. Then when I got closer I realised it was 19 points. I just burst out laughing in the middle of the shops!!!!

I hope the Crows don't make the Grand Final. The AFL would have to replay the Grand Final twice because of the nil-all draws in the first two.

Poppycock

Why am I getting nervous that last nights result is not in our best interest ?
Consider that coming 3rd will see us play the Crows in the first week of the finals - Lose, and we will most likely face the Eagles at Subiaco in the preliminary ...

First week becomes a MUST win ... The Eagles at Subiaco is TOO daunting - I'd rather face THAT in the first week when we still have a double chance

I'm sure there will be comments ...

I'm totally in agreeance with you. You're not brad hardie are you?

So it is. That changes the favouritism to the Eagles for that one but it will be a bone jarring affair none-the-less

Actually, woosha doesn't care whether the eagles finish one or two. It's going to be a humdinger of a game at any rate.

(Without looking at the fixture and other information), can the Crows finish 1st and we finish 4th and play in Adelaide?

Yes.

[hammo]

I think the best outcome would be for the Eagles and Crows to belt the crap out of each other next week and for there to be a few injuries, Saints style.
