Tipping those that can keep our competitors for finals out of the 8 or within striking range to overtake their spot in the 8.

  • Sydney 
  • North
  • Dees
  • Crows 
  • Freo
  • Saints
  • Hawks
  • Rich

Underlined are unlikely but it is good to dream :cool:

    Unfortunately the Giants and dogs have easy games.

    Such a big game against the the Pies!

    I would call it an 8 pointer but it's still just played for 4 points

    That Essendon draw did us no good at all.

    Had Essendon lost it would have opened up 2 spots in the 8 for us to take...Pies and Saints with both Bombers and Suns trailing us.

    Bombers beating the Saints is good but it gives the Bombers a big leg up. If Saints win it gets harder to take their spot.

    Lose to Collingwood and we will be well out of the 8.

    Looking increasingly likely we will need ten wins to make the 8 which is probably at least one win too many for us.

    LH I believe a Blues win is best for us as it puts to bed any chance of Freo making the 8 and we are yet to play them

    GWS are vulnerable but hard to see them losing to the Swans

    I chose Freo as their % is really poor and they would have to win an extra game to overtake us (unless we lose a few by a long margin).

     

    As an aside, I feel time is starting to run out for teams that have played 11 games and still outside the 8 (or in the lower part of the 8).  I think we (and some other teams) have a real advantage over them.  Use Bulldogs as an example:  Assume 10 games needed to make finals:  Bulldogs (on 5 wins from 11 games) need to win 5 from remaining 6 games.  Whereas Demons (on 5 wins from 10 games) need to win 5 from remaining 7 games.  Same logic applies to teams at the lower end of the 8.  Maybe the Ess forced bye may come back and help us...

    We could be in the 8 on Sat night if we win!

    GWS looks like us at our worst.

    Tonnes of inside 50s but cannot score, and conceding far too easily out the back.

    Sydney winning is a great result for us if we are genuine about our finals chances.

    Biggest upset of the year. Giants are full of guns. Swans missing many top players. 
     

    the 8 is open!

    Well one things for sure out of that game....

    There's  a coach more under pressure than Goodwin

    Atrocious performance by a highly skilled side

    GWS is missing Greene and Davis, but yes, with Sydney missing Franklin, Kennedy and Heeney, this is a major upset.

    Holy [censored].. GWS dropping this game and by a big percentage means that this game is a HUGE must win game.

    Its simple, we beat Collingwood, we go to 8th spot.

    C'mon Dees let's dare to dream!

    A win doesn't guarantee us a spot in the 8 - if Essendon beat St Kilda they'll take it and we'll stay 9th (with GWS 10th).

    Doesn't change the fact that this game for us this weekend is huge.

    Hmmm. When was the last time we had such a massive game with a lot riding on it against Collingwood...?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      Melbourne’s early surge of optimism came crashing back to reality in its clash with Fremantle at Optus Stadium on Saturday night. Just six days after unveiling its fun-filled, attack-minded style against the Saints, the Demons were met by a Dockers outfit determined to shut it down with a blend of speed, pressure, and physicality.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      The Casey Demons faced a tough first up task taking on reigning VFL premiers Footscray at Mission Whitten Oval. The Bulldogs, who unfurled their premiership flag pre-game, had 15 AFL-listed players and their top VFL talent available, setting them up for their 15th consecutive win.

      The Demons were fumbly, inefficient, outrun and outgunned all over the field as they went down to the Dockers by 48 points at Optus Stadium in Perth.
