If port flogs bombers and get GWSd we can miss finals. Am I wrong ?

Why the [censored] would you even be thinking about that?

There needs to be a 580 point or so turnaround for us to miss out.  Impossible.  We're playing finals.

[Bates Mate 4,510]

Proud of the boys today so determined not to lose

What a mammoth effort in the last.  When they got in front we hunkered down and got the job done.

I am so proud of the players, the club and everyone involved.

Enjoy it everyone, we have earned it!

And I still firmly believe that we are a big, big chance to cause some havoc in September!!

Wise thank you for all your positivity through all the close losses you always believed it was refreshing to read your posts. Ditto to Pro Dee. We're finally there.

I tipped Dees by 17 points on page 13 of the Match Preview and Team Selection Thread - never in doubt!

[beelzebub 23,383]

Well done Dees

Poi tastes good

We've either beaten or come close to beating the majority of teams in the top 8.  Should provide a lot of confidence in the finals.  What a difference a win makes.

Yeah, as good as!

"Did we win" ?!

Does anyone have any predictions as to who we might face in the finals if we win/loose?

If we win, we’ll finish 5th and play Geelong (unless they somehow lose to GC and Port replaces them, or Fremantle beat Collingwood and we finish 4th and play Richmond). 

If we lose, we’ll play the loser of Syd-Haw (if we stay above Geelong on percentage) or GWS (if Geelong pass us on percentage). Unless Fremantle beats Collingwood.

Yes. Another one that could have really made a difference against the Swans. Was missed.

Let's hope we can get Viney (at least) back in for the finals.

Forgot about Viney! Keep assuming he’s gone for the year, good pickup. And how much have we missed Hibberd too! Cracking game of footy, we’ll umpired and I wish they’d stop coughing up big leads though, I’ll never get to see a flag as I think I’m on the verge of a heartattack this year and nearly a mental breakdown ?

Now we play for an MCG final.

Are we sure we want that?

[Cassiew 1,903]

We beat West in West. Not even tigers could do that

[John Demonic 5,850]

Hard to be 'blissed out or happy' after the emotional drain of the last 3 hours

[dees189227 12,399]

[dees-picable 211]

How good was Maximus today. Best tap ruck game I can remember. Not to mention below his feet and his vision......A true leaders game. 

[Demon Disciple 12,274]

"Season comes down to this quarter. I’m going to be optimistic for a change. Leave no doubt"

As i said in the game-day thread, leave no doubt. Enjoy it tonight, but back it up next week and we go in with some momentum and confidence we can do some damage.

[BAMF 4,385]

Could barely watch. losing that one would have been truly heartbreaking

If Hawks win and we beat GWS then we're at home vs the Cats
