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.

    Despite all logic, I'm excited about the GWS game on Sat now and I think we are a chance.

    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: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
