Round 23 - Other Games aka the final countdown

[LeeToRainesToRoach]

Clarko is the new Lyon. Strangler.

 

[Coburgtiger]

If West Coast get pumped by enough, we can lose tomorrow, and still play Geelong at the G.

2 more goals for the Horks and we move to 4th, but shouldn't tank tomorrow......or......tactics.

 

[taraba]

We can't afford to lose and lose the double chance, it's just that tomorrow's game becomes a dead rubber as we will meet Brisbane at the Gabba in the QF.

It’s not a dead rubber. If we lose we drop to fifth.

 

[OldTiger1967]

Eagles look flat. Big game last week? Hope we have run in our legs tomorrow!

 

[Smoking Aces]

I rather play brisbane away
Then West coast in perth.
To have WC out the top 4 are what dreams are made of.
Go hawkers.

I agree Zip. Avoid a Perth final at all costs.

 

[TigerFlag2017]

Apparently the eagles were made to listen to the tiges themesong on the plane home last sunday.

Surprisingly it hasn't worked out that well....

 

[LeeToRainesToRoach]

I don't get the angst.

It's 2015 all over again. Brisbane get to learn all our tricks for the game that counts, on their home turf.

 

[TigerForce]

It’s not a dead rubber. If we lose we drop to fifth.

That's what I mean. If we win we meet them again.

 

[TigerForce]

% equal with us. This is crazy!!

Eagles are tanking it to keep us out of the 4

 

[rensman]

this means lions have no incentive to beat us tomorrow as they can't drop lower than 2nd unless we smash them. so they'll need to play good enough but don't have to kill themselves trying to keep up.
btw, for the stats minded, how much do we have to beat the Bears by to pass them on the ladder?
sad thing is most of us miss seeing the boys live week 1 with the current scenario , but the last two weeks of the season are more important ;-)

 

[Pandaboy]

Is this going to be another North 2015 scenario?? That final still gives me nightmares

 

[seven]

Game over here - we will not be playing Geelong first week of finals

Salty Scott will be popping the goon bag as we speak.

 

[LeeToRainesToRoach]

Barracking for the Hawks now. Another few goals will give us a tiny window if we lose tomorrow.

 

[TigerForce]

Now the Horks are going to stop and keep WC just above us in % !!!! This is torture to us!!

 

[taraba]

That's what I mean. If we win we meet them again.

Yeah but it’s only a dead rubber if that’s the only outcome. We still need to win for top four. It may even actually be better to lose and play Essendon first up. Crazy.

 

[TigerForce]

My head's in a spin....FMD.

Can WC kick 5 in 12 minutes?

 

[taraba]

Ah of course. Eagles now kick some cheap goals to screw us on the percentage factor. God damn this.

 

[jb03]

If we beat Brissie two weeks in a row we will likely play either the Pies and Eagles in the Prelim (whoever wins that semi and assuming Cats beat Pies in week one).
