(If) we win next week against Brisbane what is our preferred outcome for the QF?

1.) Finish 2nd and play Sydney at the MCG

2.) Finish 3rd and play Sydney at the SCG

3.) Finish 3rd and play Collingwood at the MCG

I for one think a 3rd place finish playing against Sydney at the SCG is actually the best option. We play really well away from home and I think the hostile environment will be a good intro to our finals series and it will give extra motivation.

I don’t think any of these are relevant for us. We will lose against the lions and finish 5th or 6th.

    I'm more confident against Brisbane than I have been against any team going back to the Bulldogs game. Could not visibly see us beating Collingwood or Carlton, had bad vibes against the Dogs and uncertainties about Freo. If we push Brisbane around a bit we win. I question their ability to win under genuine finals pressure.

    Maybe GWS win in Canberra, and maybe Coll lose to Carl…

    We’d be 4th…

    If we lose to Brissy then we will play either carlton or the dogs. I would rather the dogs so lets just ensure we win and get double chance.

    Now that the Pies losing to the blues seems a real possibility there are new realistic outcome. 
    we lose, pies lose. Finish 5th and play the blues. Not a bad outcome. 

    can’t see us making % up on the Swans so it’s either

    Away to Swans PL

    Tigers or Blues at the G   EF

    anything else??

    I can understand that given our last few encounters with them. Sooner or later they’ll get one back. We are playing poor, they aren’t that much better. On the eve of Finals at their home deck, I think they get it done and Freo take the 4th spot.

    Man looking at the options, I’m still cut at Max King. Saints would give Sydney a game and lions would be 4 pts behind us 

    even if we lost next week we’d probably be fourth

    If other games go as expected…

    Win - likely Sydney in Sydney

    Lose - likely Richmond in an elimination.

    Calm thoughts, calm thoughts…

    Freo will likely beat GWS so if Collingwood beat Carlton, we will drop to 6th.

    Hardest draw in the league and still a chance of 2nd. That said those losses mid season killing us now and having to rely on other results feels dirty. Saint will get touched by 50+. 

    I’d much rather play Swans in Sydney in a QF than play the Toigs at the MCG and risk get eliminated by those flogs.

    We'll beat Brisbane next week. As soon as we apply some pressure they will fold like a cheap suit. They are the definition of a flat track bully

    Sydney will win handily and finish second on %

    So I reckon it's a QF at the SGC for us. And I'll be there if it happens

    IF the Pies win , Dees and Lions Draw , Freo win and the Swans lose. The top six would be Cats,Pies,Demons,Lions,Freo then Swans. This would be great for us .

    There is only one thing we have to do next weekend and that is win. Others will sort out themselves.

    In what universe is this going to happen?

      I rate Sydney as our biggest threat  and most worried about at any ground.

    A universe where Max King can kick straight?

    Upsets can happen. I rate the Dees a premiership threat, and they lost to the 9th placed Bulldogs...

    If we beat the Lions and Sydney wins it will come down to % on if we play Swans at the MCG or SCG

    The wining score differential is about 2 goals

    We need to win with a margin and  Saints to challenge Swans and clear us 2+ goals

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day or has everyone given up. Maybe it is because a prime time Friday game is so rare ... double checks today is Friday ... Come on DL'ers support the team one last time for the year!

    • AFLW PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      The Demons return to Casey Fields (aka the Field of Dreams) this Saturday to host the Saints in Round 2. If you’re feeling lucky, head down the Monash for some family-friendly footy—you might even walk away a winner. The first 5,000 adults through the gate will receive an entry into the $10,000 helicopter ball drop. With Casey’s infamous wind, what could possibly go wrong? Closest ball to the pin wins. So spread the word, get down there—and good luck!

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.
