For the first time I'm not worried who we come up against, we can beat them all. If Sydney win both games, this might be the year the premiers won it outside the top four.
The two teams that are looking the goods are the Tigers and Eagles.

You'd think so. As long as its mathematically possible to get 4th you have to give it your best and percentage is very close between Tigers, Bulldogs, Swans. Swans have the advantage in Rd23 of playing last so will know what they have to do by game time. Tigers and Bulldogs will have to put best efforts in to keep 4th spot potential alive.
you know we have improved a lot since the beginning of the year while North are still pretty inconsistent and the commentators were pretty damming of them yesterday and the way they play against top teams - one commentator reckons they have lost some hard edge stuff from last year and that Higgins appears to be the only player that has added to their 22 (and Waite in patches) - the rest of the team has stagnated.
my only concern is that they may get two chances in a row to try and beat us - I will be fascinated to see what tactics the two teams adopt on Friday night, as I could see North fox quite a bit. I am not as worried about playing them on the G as I was a few weeks back.
In any case, no final is an easy affair and no final is ever a given
5th v 8th is normally Sunday afternoon (which is the one time spot I hate)

By my calculations the bullfrogs would have to beat the lions by about 70 points more than we beat North to be above us. If we lose it doesn't matter.tigerlove said:
Works perfectly for me, just praying we don't cop a friday night final, already missed far to many games this year. Would have to suck up to the boss n get at least a half shift covered on friday to be able to go to the game.year of the tiger said:
We just keep on winning and let the matches take care of themselves. We're in and no one else in the 8 scares us.
AFL has already indicated that the Friday night game is highly likely to be in Perth.TigerMasochist said:
Don't care who we face, but of those teams, Taylor Walker is the most difficult opponent for Alex Rance and Adelaide are in the best form of the 3.
If we finish 5th and all the expected wins occur:
Week 2: Sydney in Sydney
Week 3: Hawthorn at the G'
Grand Final: Freo
If we finish 6th:
Week 2: West Coast in Perth
Week 3: Freo in Perth
Grand Final: Hawthorn
Finish 6th and we could go to Perth 2 weeks in a row! And we probably get the Crows in red hot form in week 1.
Finish 5th and Freo is by far the most likely opponent in a Grand Final... on our home turf.
