Who TF is on Papley??? The bloke isn’t getting within 10 metres of him

I hate Tom Papley so much that I’d love him to come to us.

Hawks are home. 

Top 4 locked in. 

what a day!

Not yet.

We still need at least one win to ensure Brisbane can't pass us, and at least two if Sydney beat Essendon (regardless of the result of GWS v Port, too).

[DubDee 26,191]

How filthy would you be as a Lions fan?

Zero effort for 3 Quarters and then 8 goals in the last. Far out.
Top 4 on the line and they choke

True but if we can’t win one of our last 3 games we don’t deserve top 4. We are just about there. Very unlikely the others win all remaining games also

Will a Jeelong v Melbourne Final in 2021 be automatically held at the MCG with crowds being low?

There's a contract with the MCC that has to be honoured doesn't it?

The MCC/MFC alliance has to be worth something doesn't it?

Sorry, I forgot how this really all works - we'd be screwed over big time, but wouldn't it be even sweeter beating them on the one and only time the GF if played on their dung mound?

[Deesprate 1,324]

Is Eddie Maguire getting early onset dementia. Just stated Swans have won by two points and it only 3 qtr time.

After today Sydney finish with St Kilda, North and Gold Coast.

If they win today they'll have won 5 straight against 5 sides better than those three (West Coast, Dogs, GWS, Fremantle, Essendon if they win).

They are the threat right now. If they win today we still need another two to be sure of holding them off.

It is an outside chance. But Week 1 if we are 3rd, be ready for a Jeelong outburst 

[titan_uranus 25,052]

Seeing Franklin play well today really irritates me - he 100% should be suspended and sitting in the stands.

[The heart beats true 18,178]

Sydney getting the rub of the fluorescent yellow here.

[titan_uranus 25,052]

12.2 in the second half to Sydney. They just can't miss, and Essendon can't stop them.

Sydney are a huge threat for our top 4 spot. The way they're playing it's hard to see them losing to St Kilda, North or the Gold Coast.

Could this be just  one more example of corruption at the top?  (Just asking)

I'm barracking for a Swans loss rather than a bombers win

Ok, ima try that instead. ?

Yep. We have to win 2 of 3 to make top 4. O fear that won’t happen. Looks like 5th spot for us.

Man, you’re making it so hard to want Essendon to lose. ?

[The heart beats true 18,178]

Meh. This just goes on my ‘reasons to hate Essendon’ list.

[Pates 9,661]

Damn Swans getting the job done on Essendon I think.

We just have to keep winning. 
nothing wrong with that

[Wadda We Sing 10,685]

Anyone caught barracking for Essendon could face penalties...

[The heart beats true 18,178]

That game will be remembered as the game that made me very glad we didn’t go anywhere near Peter Wright.

[DubDee 26,191]

if the Giants and tigers lose there will be a team in the 8 with 8 wins with only 3 rounds remaining. We could have the worst ever finals  team this year

if anyone is wondering when we got to 8 wins this year, it was in round 8

?

[titan_uranus 25,052]

So the status is this:

1. Three more wins guarantees top 2
2. Two more wins guarantees top 4
3. One more win is not enough for top 4 unless and until Sydney loses a game (or Port loses twice)
