I would like to see the pies beat Lions (helps our top 2 aspirations) Suns beat Carlton and Crows knock over the Swans

[Diamond_Jim 11,979]

Anyone but Carlton please !!!

[Deebauched 1,219]

The most important game for us is suns v blues not even our game rates.

Suns win or even draw and its all over . We're locked in to 4th .

I cannot think we will go out of the top for - and if we did, we don't deserve a flag. It's all about top two as far as I'm concerned. Go Pies (gulp); go Freo (gulp  again)!!

[Roost it far 6,239]

I want the Lions and Port to lose, us back to second. If we do manage to finish second it’ll be a huge help in claiming the flag

This season is a nightmare. 
At least I don’t have to barrack for Geelong ever again. 

[old55 21,595]

Gold Coast, Freo and the Saints can all win IMO.

Being optimistic is good but finishing 2nd? We have a makeshift fwd line that kicked 8 goals last week.  I'll settle for 4th and get the tough season tired  Pies at the G in the QF with Fritsch back and maybe tmac.

Finishing 3rd is a disaster. If we're locked in on Sunday evening i'd use the Buddy farewell game to experiment . Couldnt care if we drop the game.  4th is No1.

I’m happy with fourth. Can’t see the Pies doing much this September and would love to pump them in front of their fans.

I see the Lions are into favorites tonight. Pies go very well when they're slightly written off, wouldn't be surprised at all if they got up tonight even with all their outs.

[Bring-Back-Powell 13,378]

The number 1 priority is Carlton losing. If that occurs then we can pop open the champagne at 4:50 tomorrow afternoon and celebrate another top 4 finish. Hopefully Carlton "Carlton" it up as they usually do on the Coast.

Port and Brisbane both losing and top 2 is back on the agenda. 

If it comes to a scenario where Brisbane lose, we win and then posters hope Port beat Freo for us to get a better draft pick at the expense of a top 2 spot, then I'd have to wonder where their priorities lie.

[layzie 29,583]

Freo anyday over Port.

A home final is worth a bit more to me than a slightly upgraded draft pick. 

[Roost it far 6,239]

Do we’re barracking for The Pies, Suns and Freo?

I'm the opposite re Coll vs Bris.  If Brisbane beat Collingwood and we beat the Hawks, we should play the Pies first week of finals, even if we lose against Swans. I'd be confident of beating Collingwood and all our finals will be at the G.  😈

Finish second and play either port or lions st the G best option. Pies next best option 

[Jibroni 4,222]

You would expect the Lions to be primed for tonight and TBH the Pies dont have much to play for.

They have plenty to play for. Their form has been very ordinary and they’d want to build it up again going into finals. You don’t want to crawl into September.

Granted but with Top 2 sewn up I imagine there desire will be less than Brisbane's. 

[Clintosaurus 6,621]

Carlton will be umpired to a win. Nothing surer. Second week straight.

[DubDee 21,243]

would love to see the Saints grow a pair and end the Cats season

Lions easily tonight

Crows v Swans??? a draw?

[Redleg 37,960]

If you are playing Pies in a QF or a semi or PF later, I would prefer it in a QF without N. Daicos and Moore just returning from a hamstring.

Beat them and it’s a PF at the G, likely against an interstate team.

That is our best chance of getting to a GF imo.

Then again a home QF against an interstate team is a big chance for a PF too.

Who knows?
