NON MFC: Rd 22 2021

[McQueen 17,867]

Dons pose a bigger risk of Finals upsets than Eagles. 

[At Least I Saw a Flag 5,274]

Does anyone else think that that Crodan person from Freo looks like Papa Smurf?

Freo, you ripper!

[Jaded No More 68,972]

Bye bye West Coast.

Both Freo and West Coast can still make the eight. Only two outside that can. 

[BDA 22,875]

I enjoyed that game. Great atmosphere, seasons on the line. West Coast lose. Great stuff

[DEE fence 5,039]

WCE should really chair Margetts off the ground...

[Chook 15,022]

Lovely simple end to the H+A Season:

Melbourne win, top of the ladder
GWS/Essendon win, finals

GWS/Essendon lose, WCE/Freo win, finals.

It's all set up.

Giants and bombers play blues and pies so no chance for WA teams

Ch 7 news has just decreed that in their view Hawkins will not be charged. 
So, nothing to see here. 

I didn’t realise paying hundreds of millions for tv rights also allowed Channel 7 MRO voting rights, but there you go.

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

The worst thing about the Hawkins decision is you can almost guarantee if he was at small club he would have been suspended.

You been watching this season. Sad part is ten wins might get you a finals game. Granted it most likely will take 11 wins.

West Coast have to beat Brisbane in Brisbane and Freo need to beat St Kilda by a massive margin and hope Essendon lose to Collingwood. Good [censored] luck. 
GWS play Carlton. Lol.

AFL website says Hawkins and Dangerfield, no case to answer. 
 

Predictable,  really. It was an act of foolish optimism to have posed the question in the first place…(with apologies to Monty Python)

Freo only need Ess or GSW to lose.if they can win.

Absolutely 100%. Annoys the F out of me that the cats get this free ride with the MRO. 

Rules for one club, different for other clubs. 

When it comes to the MRO’s ruling the first box that gets ticked is “Do they play for Geelong?”

Yes = no case

No = immediate suspension

Again look who Essendon and GWS are playing.

Did you pick the Hawks to beat the Dogs this week.

Actually yes. Game was in Tassie for one. Clarko on a mission to give Hawks board the fingers. Dogs lost Bruce so need time to adjust. 
Freo’s list is decimated by injuries.

So then you know upsets happen.

My hopes for week 23

We win the minor premiership

Port lose to the doggies and finish 4th so play us in week 1 of finals

West coast lose to Brisbane and miss finals

The pies beat Essendon (they did it to us a few years ago maybe they'll repeat the trick against the bombers)

Freo to beat the Saints who have nothing to play for thereby sneaking into 8th spot at the expense of Essendon

That would be an epic final H&A weekend as far as i'm concerned

[Tom Dyson 1,633]

Bit of a shame that freo winning means that essendon stay in the eight. 

Essendon scare me more atm than west coast.

You can’t count on much this year but the pies and blues being [censored] is the closest thing to a sure thing we have right now
