For those still playing at home, a GWS loss is a big thing for any sliver of a finals chance we still have.

If we beat them next week we'll be near-guaranteed to finish above them (subject to percentage).

If they then beat St Kilda in the final round, and St Kilda lose to West Coast, all three of us (i.e. St Kilda, GWS and us) will finish on 9 wins.

If our percentage catches St Kilda's and stays in front of GWS', we then play finals (doesn't matter what Collingwood and the Dogs do from there).

Yes that's all far-fetched. About as far-fetched as GWS losing to Adelaide.

perhaps more likely is the dogs to lose to Freo in the last round - if we win our 2 last games we'll get in 8th assuming no big jumps in %

    This is where I am at too, I think.

    Now I am just going to get hopes built up again, for no logical reason 

    And I'm the big [censored] that just bought 3 tickets to Saturdays game now.... Completely contradicting my post about not watching this team while goody is in charge...

    How Leon Cameron got a 2 year extension I'll never know.

    He is driving the Ferrari like its a '96 Hyundai hatchback. Aside from last year, they have been poor given they have the most talent in the comp

    I agree DubDee, I've always thought he has massively underperformed for the list he had.

    Gws are gone. So where is their media pile on about softness , everything on the line failure etc. 

    Won't happen. 

    Dees knock them off next week will be part redemption for me.

    He is a crap coach always has been.  A monkey could have taken that team to the top 4.   Not winning a flag is a huge fail.

    Dogs still on the Box seat with 2 easy games to play.

    Freo are no easy beats.  They are almost unbeatable in Cairns  ?

    I just had a full swing of mood. The optimism is back, at least until Saturday. We probably win on Saturday and then put in a stinker against the Dons, but there’s still a chance. Thanks Croweaters

    Easy is how you would have described gws vs crows 2 hours ago.

     Our big hope is freo knocking off dogs. They have A graders and an impressive young coach in Longmuir

    I also wouldn't dismiss the Hawks either... they are due for a win. Had a shocking loss to Adelaide, but nearly beat Saints, Essendon, and Port. Their last win was in Round 9 against Carlton. Could be another upset looming!

    Supporting this club requires a total lack of logic.

    Go Dees.......somehow

    I am reading a lot of delusional nonsense on this thread. We do not deserve to play finals and nor are we a chance. Don't rely on others to do the dirty washing.

    Sydney are a young developing team.  I trust them.  They've lost plenty of games, but they're honest.  You know what you're going to get (virtually) every week.

    I respect them and their coach.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?
