Freo could be in trouble. Weather forecast for Sydney this weekend is cold and wet . GWS could knock them off if it rains.

Its in Canberra.

    It's not negative. I'm just stating that there's a good chance we won't finish in the top four.  Are we going to bury our heads in the sand?

    No.  What we should all be hoping for  to bury is Brisbane, for starters.  
    What a pathetic meaningless thread.

    GWS and St Kilda both have something to prove and will want to finish the season off well, especially the Saints after last week.

    Swans are in red hot form, but Saints might not get blown out of the water, and we might have another big win against the Lions.

    To suggest we are not finishing top 4 a week before the final 8 is settled, is frankly, just posting garbage for the sake of posting garbage.

    Can’t believe how negative some of our supporters are.

    im surprised there’s not a recent thread called “ we won’t win the 1964 or  2021 flag”

    If we win, we're near-certain to play Sydney, with only percentage deciding whether it's at the MCG or SCG.

    In the unlikely event Sydney loses to St Kilda, we will host:

    1. Collingwood, if they beat Carlton
    2. Fremantle, if Collingwood loses and Fremantle wins
    3. Sydney, if both Collingwood and Fremantle lose and Sydney maintains its percentage buffer over Brisbane
    4. Brisbane, if both Collingwood and Fremantle lose and somehow Sydney sheds so much percentage that they drop past Brisbane (who will have also lost to us)

    If we lose, we can still finish top 4 but would need two of these things to happen:

    1. Collingwood loses to Carlton
    2. Fremantle loses to GWS
    3. Sydney loses to St Kilda and sheds enough percentage to drop behind us

    Those are in order of likelihood. The last one isn't happening, because St Kilda stink. So if you want an insurance policy, get around GWS.

    For a post that virtually all are saying shouldn’t be a separate topic, why is it getting enough oxygen to expand onto a 3rd page? (I apologise for adding to the topic)

    We're winning the flag!

    And in the unlikely chance of a draw we would play Geelong.

    Tbh everyone has the right to share their views, we’ve all encountered MFCSS at some point in time. Positive or negative, hopeful or cautious, it just shows that our current form is not as confidence inspiring. Nevertheless, I couldn’t believe how tight the table looks right now.. this will be a big week in footy!

    It's pitiful, it's almost like they revel in the misery 🤔

    Meanwhile I've added another to the ignore list, it makes Demonland way more enjoyable

    sportsbet has it effectively 50/50 to beat Brisbane, I wouldn't be so negative.

    “We're not beating Brisbane up there so…..”

    Because they smashed us in the middle of last year….then easily accounted for us in the final in Adelaide and pulverised us on the G earlier this year…wait…what??!! 
     

    FFS stop sooking and start supporting. If you actually let yourself enjoy these times, it’s a thrill ride. 
     

    Or would you rather Less pressure and be focussing on another high draft pick?

    Wanna bet? More sure of beating Brisbane than any other 8 team, only crew that make our offence look good, and our pressure is higher for longer. Easiest game of the next 4.

    I think we can beat The Bears comfortably.

    We ARE finishing top 4.

    So there 😛

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
