The bottom half of the top eight look just as dangerous as the top half.

Most of the form teams are in the bottom half. I would hate to come across the Swans or GWS in finals. We'd win cos I think we're the best, but damn. What a year to win a flag if you can do it.

You need to remember tho that a lot of these sides have put so much effort just to make finals it’s going to be a big ask to have them continue at this pace. 
Sydney is the only side in the bottom part of the 8 that really scares me.
GWS are also very good but again their form is very up and down and they barely made the 8. Losing to them earlier this year will also be a good thing for us as we won’t take them lightly.

Except for the top team Clint. They look alright.

But if finals are in WA it’s much better to not have WC in finals with their insufferable fans and the rigged umpiring. 

Ahh .... But I personally don't know any WC fans.
I know plenty of Essendon fans.
And they're all arrogant fl0gs.

Can't risk a loss to them.

I don’t know if it’s just me but I’m not scared of facing Essendon in finals if that unlikely event occurs. 

the Lions will hammer them week one

Essendon has won 5 games since the bye.

Those wins have been over 4th, 14th, 15th, 17th and 18th.

If they win next week, they'll add 16th.

So that's the bottom five, plus the Dogs in a form slump.

I maintain their form is a mirage.

If Brisbane are getting their game to click, they're better than Sydney IMO. Would not want to draw them in the semi final if we lose the first final.

With Essendon replacing West Coast, here is the top 8's record the current top 8:

  • Melbourne: 7-2
  • Sydney: 6-3
  • GWS: 5-5
  • Geelong: 4-4
  • Bulldogs: 4-4
  • Brisbane: 4-4
  • Port: 3-4
  • Essendon: 1-8

Interesting the vagaries of the draw there. We've played top 8 teams 9 times. Other top 4 candidates Cats, Dogs, Lions only 8 times, and Port only 7!

Assuming the top 8 doesn't change, it will be 10 for us in total, 9 for Geelong and the Dogs, and 8 for Port (given we all play top 8 sides again this weekend).

Port's repeat games this season are Adelaide, Collingwood, Carlton, St Kilda and the Dogs. That's two bottom 4 sides, a bottom 6 side if Hawthorn passes Carlton this weekend and another bottom 10 side. Just one repeat game against a top 8 side.

Meanwhile have just noticed that Brisbane have only played one current top 8 side since the bye: Geelong in Round 15.

Their games post-bye have been against 2nd, 10th, 11th, 12th, 14th, 15th, 16th, 17th and 18th, and they have 9th to come.
