    If the Hawks and Swans draw and we beat GWS we would host GWS in the first final.

    I would prefer this to playing Geelong.

    I'd prefer Geelong. Two of the softest matches in history leading into a finals series,  they'll be ripe for the picking. 

    I reckon we'll be more motivated to beat them than any team in the 8.

    By my calculations, we need to win tomorrow, otherwise it could be travel every week of the finals to go on any sort of run.

    Elimiation final vs GWS at Spotless

    Semi final vs Sydney at the SCG

    Prelim final vs West Coast at Optus

    That would be impossible.

    The teams that finish 5th and 8th play each other in round one.  Then the winner keeps going.  So apart from the location of the Elimination Final, the finals draw will be the same for both teams.

    Given we can only finish 5th or 8th (unless Sydney and Hawks draw, and then we'll finish 6th), the only difference is the location of our first final. 

     

    Our potential travel is influenced more by who wins Syd v Haw tonight,  and who wins WCE v Haw/Coll in week 1.

    Hawks are home now. That sucks.

    Was hoping for the worst situation for Collingwood. Which is probably against Richmond.

    The thought of Hawthorn winning another flag is putried!

    Nope....0.3%

    Richmond vs Hawthorn in a final ... first time ever? 

    That's unless West Coast lose by 3+ goals and drop to 4th.

    My understanding is that, with that result, we win tomorrow, we play Week 1 and 2 at the G... that’s a good result.

    No.

    We lose and GWS go ahead of Sydney on points. A draw and GWS will rise to 5th on %.

    So it's simple. GWS in Sydney or Geelong at the MCG depending on tomorrow.

    Week 1:
    Geelong @ mcg (if we win tomorrow) or GWS @ spotless (if we lose)

     

    Week 2
    Rich or Haw @ mcg

     

    Week 3
    WCE or Coll

     

     

    There are no other permutations.

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
