    If you want to work out the finals permutations, have a go at this

    Go to http://www.allthestats.com/stats/ladderpredict.asp then click on the teams you think will win, and it will predict the final ladder.
    From there - 1st v 4th, 2nd v 3rd, 5th v 8th, 6th v 7th.

    My tips - Essendon, St Kilda, Sydney, Brisbane, West Coast, Port Adelaide, Kangaroos, Hawthorn.

    Which makes my first round of finals:
    Port Adelaide v West Coast (Football Park)
    Brisbane v Collingwood (Gabba)
    Sydney v Fremantle (Stadium Australia)
    Essendon v Adelaide (MCG)

      Possible final laddders range from....

      Port Adelaide 72
      Sydney 56
      Collingwood 56
      Essendon 56
      Fremantle 56
      Brisbane Lions 54
      Adelaide 52
      West Coast Eagles 52
      ---------------------
      Hawthorn 48
      St Kilda 48
      Kangaroos 42
      Richmond 28
      Geelong 26
      Melbourne 20
      Carlton 20
      Western Bulldogs18

      ...to....

      Port Adelaide 68
      Brisbane Lions 58
      Adelaide 56
      West Coast Eagles 56
      Essendon 56
      Sydney 56
      Collingwood 56
      Fremantle 52
      -------------
      Hawthorn 48
      Kangaroos 46
      St Kilda 44
      Geelong 30
      Richmond 28
      Melbourne 20
      Carlton 16
      Western Bulldogs 14

      ....and many points in between. Basically any place from 2-8 is up for grabs by almost any team currently in those places. Collingwood (currently 2nd) can finish as low as 7th and Freo (8th) can get to 2nd (mathematically anyway)!

      What I like about these two possibilities in particular though is that both feature a R21 replay at StadeOz but (I believe) with a different result and the crowd even BIGGER (all seats must be paid for - no season tickets - so very few "no shows")

      BTW Sydney getting ahead of Collingwood requires the Bombers to win by about 12 goals (not impossible, though unlikely) with Sydney winning by the the same or greater margin (also not impossible) to keep ahead of the Bombers. The other placings will be decided by win/loss unless monstrous winning margins occur.

              I don't think the doggies will win by that much!

                  A draw separates Brisbane from the rest anyway.
