The final countdown - 3 games remaining

[dejavoodoo44]

Just need to keep putting together four quarters of consistent football

And not get distracted by things that are beyond our control.

So MW and DV44, when I'm at the game on Saturday arvo, how will I be able to tell if the team is doing all of these things simultaneously?
Should I just look at the scoreboard?

Just focus on the basics.

I’d be looking at John Longmire

You're wasted on here. You know that, right? There has to be a spot in the coach's box. Dean Cox, he never looks like he is
doing anything. Take his chair. The coaches and the team need to hear this stuff.

I'll see if I can implement that process.

Yes, I'd like to think Bombersgate has put the wind up our guys. Also, winning usually means there are few changes to the team week to week
(except for injuries) so competition for spots is tight. The bottom six need to be on their best behaviour to keep theirs. We can win the last
five games and open up the chance for a home final. And we've beaten three of the current top four on the ladder.
I'm feeling increasingly bullish.

There’s someone even more bullish than you and that’s Buddy, he’s playing like a 26 year old and helping everyone to play very hungry.

Still too hard to call. If you run the scenario that the Swans win three and lose to the Pies, it's hard to stay in the top four. Requires a Freo loss (dogs next week is a challenge, but their run home is pretty good from there) AND one of either Dees or Pies to somehow lose two (and we would still need a percentage boost to take Dees) AND Lions to lose one of their remaining games (this one is a likely scenario).

Simply put, we need to win everything from here. Pies in two weeks is the top four game no doubt.

Win three and lose to the Pies? I get your are God here but quit drinking or smoking the pipes, man. There’s three rounds to go.

Whoops lol! I meant win two and lose to the Pies

I did the ladder predictor with the simple method of picking the higher-ranked team in every round.

If Sydney defeat Collingwood:
GEEL 18 4 0 WWW
MELB 17 5 0 WWW
SYDN 16 6 0 WWW
FREM 15 6 1 WWW
BRIS 15 7 0 WWL
COLL 15 7 0 LLW
RICH 13 8 1 WWW
W.B. 12 10 0 LWW

CARL 12 10 0 LLL
GCFC 11 11 0 WLW
ST.K 11 11 0 LLL
PORT 10 12 0 LWW
ESS. 8 14 0 WLL
ADEL 8 14 0 WWL
HAW. 7 15 0 LLL
GWS. 5 17 0 LLL
WCE. 2 20 0 LLL
NMFC 2 20 0 LLL

If Collingwood win, 3rd to 6th would be Collingwood, Fremantle, Sydney, Brisbane.

Remaining matches where top-10 sides play each other:

Round 21: Melbourne v Collingwood, Western Bulldogs v Fremantle, Geelong v St Kilda, Brisbane v Carlton.
Round 22: St Kilda v Brisbane, Melbourne v Carlton, Sydney v Collingwood.
Round 23: Brisbane v Melbourne, Carlton v Collingwood, St Kilda v Sydney.

A very sensible approach.

I've been playing with the Squiggle predictor. You get slightly different results each time if you use "autotip" and then reset before running again, but most runs put Sydney top 4. It's "beat Pies" really though isn't it...

[Markwebbos]

I think Pies v Dees will be very informative.
