Interestingly there are no dead-rubbers this weekend despite it being round 22. Although many games look like they will be one-sided we saw from last week, anything can happen

Do we know which games we want to go our way to set up the preferable finals scenario? or too early?

Hopefully the Saints give the Cats a bruising encounter. Finals still on the line for the saints and they have been in better form

Giants should take care of the Tigers tonight, with some good players back.

    In theory most games look straight forward, but who knows with this season.

    Gone GWS tonight in an upset (even with Green out) as I'm sitting third in the tipping at work and 1 behind 2nd.  Think GWS have more incentive to do well and tigers haven't been good against good opposition lately. 

    Saints maybe but who could trust them. Same with blues...

    Some Geelong fans on footy sites are claiming that he won't play again this year.

    If this is the case, that's a huge blow for them.

    I foolishly made that call two weeks ago….I thought both Hawks and Pies were definitely going to tank from here on in.

    Rd 20 : 

    Blues over Saints

    Pies over Eagles

    Hawks over Lions 

    Freo over Tigers

    Rd 21 : 

    Giants over Cats

    Suns over Blues (kind of an upset)

    Saints over Swans

    Bombers over Dogs

    With 2 weeks left I lead the work footy tipping by 3, should of been 2 but I accidentally tipped GWS by mistake, what luck. But surely this is the week that it’s a straight fwd round.

    Giants 

    Dogs

    Cats

    Power

    Lions

    Swans

    Dees

    Bombers

    Eagles

    Taking tonight’s game each in my multis, hopefully some return this weekend .

    Really looking fwd to tonight’s game, think it’s going to be really physical. Basically an elimination final.

    I’ve been pouring over the weather reports in five different states to determine which of this weekend’s games is likely to be affected by adverse weather. Saturday night’s game at the Gabba is the most likely and my assessment is that Collingwood will take the money against Brisbane after an adjournment of half an hour due to tropical rainfall accompanied by hurricane force winds and a thunderstorm.

    Is this a gws home game?

    And if so why is hardwick complaining about being at marvel?

    Would love the Giants to knock off the Tigers and end their finals chances once and for all.

    But the more belief GWS get, the more dangerous they’ll become in the finals. Just want to see a good match, and for the Dees to win Sunday.

    Last weekend was our lottery ticket coming up trumps.

    It is.

    They should’ve played it down at KP to be fair, just to stick it up Hardwick all the more.

    Nice to see that the work experience kid is still at AFL House despite lockdown.

    Tigers - yellow and black.  Umpires - yellow and black.  

    It just beggars belief when they could have gone with fluoro green, light blue or even white for the umps.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
