A place to discuss games that affect our top 4/2 chances.

Richmond currently beating freo, which is great, hopefully they can finish the job

Can't believe I am about to type this: "Carn the Crows".

How likely is it that Essendon will be stripped of points?
Glad to see Richmond beat Fremantle, I've developed a strong disliking for them lately and it frees us up a bit in the top-4 temporarily

Wouldn't rely on it.

Tigs are going to do us a favour. Going to create some tension in the household leading up to the SCG game next week though - can't handle my partner when she thinks the Tigs have a chance of beating the Swans.

Goes without saying that we still have to win our own points whatever happens in any other game.

Fremantle's loss to Richmond today only means something if we beat West Coast.....but it's a start.

Means we can afford to lose atleast one more game and remain in the tol 4 guaranteed.

Wether that game is today or rnd 23 doesn't matter. But yes a win today would be lovely.

Adelaid have started OK against geelong too.

It is seeming more unlikely that they will be stripped of points from what I've heard over the last week.
It would be a shame to make the top four on default. I'd much prefer to know that we made it of our own accord.

True.
Must win today.

Crows beat geelong!!!

Cats lose !

I am reasonably confident about top 4 for us now but I really really really want to finish ahead of Essendon. They have Hawthorn next and then Collingwood. They don't have any absolute gimmes to come but also don't have to leave Melbourne again in the regular season.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out how much is going to hinge on our last two home & away games against Geelong and Hawthorn. If we're serious and peaking as we should then we should win the four games prior to our trip to Geelong.

Incidentally, our last six games are all against Victorian opposition.

I missed a key word in that sentence. -"NOT"

They will not be stripped of points.

I watched the Swans play West Coast at the Alexandria Hotel.
During half time in our game we watched the end of the Crows Cats game. Amazing how everyone wanted the Crows to win. Nice to see the Cats brought down a peg!

Maybe this is a lucky 'Carn the Crows' comment so I'm bumping it. If only the Saints had a chance we'd be 2nd by tomorrow evening.
