Swans need 27 more points if St Kilda doesn't score. 99-49 will do it.

Tx that....and obviously that 99 increases with every point saints do score.

Just slow down the pace Saints.

Think of us Dees fans and not yourselves.

Thank you Mr Steele.

    Will they announce finals fixture tonight? Nothing on AFL app

    Technically they can't confirm anything yet because St Kilda could theoretically still win and change the match ups entirely.

    But I'd assume from here it will be:

    1. Thursday - Fremantle v Dogs
    2. Friday - Geelong v Collingwood
    3. Saturday afternoon - Brisbane v Richmond
    4. Saturday night - Melbourne v Sydney or Sydney v Melbourne

    Keeps the breaks between the EF winners and QF losers close.

    If Sydney manage to lose top 4 we have Pies first week. They have been incredibly lucky - beating sides outside top 8 by very small margins. I would like them first up. Go Saints

    I think you’ve forgotten our recent history against the Pies

    l don’t want to go anywhere near them in the finals

    Yes.

    But Sydney isn't about to do a Carlton. They aren't losing from here.

    Hold my beer

    Ripper goal from Jack Steele. Looks like we might get there in the end.

    Margin back to 17 points...

    Forget about the Sydney winning margin, St Kilda are not out of this game.

    Correct.

    If St Kilda kicks one goal, Sydney would need another 7 points on top of those 27.

    Cost Swans 0.4 percent that goal

    The more you think about it Collingwood didn't win that game Carlton lost it. That is going to hurt all summer.

    St Kilda won't win this.

    But that goal means Sydney now needs to score a minimum of 34 points from here to pass us, and that assumes St Kilda doesn't score again.

    For every point St Kilda scores that 34-point target increases.

    Yeah except Collingwood can't seem to lose at the moment. Plus we now have to put up with there feral supporters 

    I want nothing more than the chance to be present and witness Melbourne beat Collingwood in a final. Preferably a GF.

    Each point advances them about 0.1 percent. They have 15 minutes to outscore Saints by 4 goals

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
