Have had better mornings on holidays (in Croatia at the moment), Pittonet in the ruck making the Blues slower than needed, Cerra and Cottrell not contributing enough after returns from injury.

Freo lost so that is at least a positive in the chase for second spot.

Over to the Dees now to beat Essendon ... time for a polo shirt change (it is 32°C here) 😁

You suck ump.

So soft ....gives a goal.

Booo.

[leave it to deever 17,617]

Our disposal has been horrible.

We do everything to win the pill and just turn it over .

Hilarious this week on First Crack, they will all have to wind in their Geelong is finished comments.

And even better the 'Melbourne is done' comments.

On paper, Carlton have an amazing list. Do they still have a soft underbelly?

St Kilda are rubbish

After last night’s brilliant effort we could still end the weekend outside the 8 if Port win. Clearly GWS will beat Richmond and Brisbane most likely over WC. So let’s go Suns!

Probably going to need 13 wins plus a good % to make the 8 this year.

Far more excited to go for the biggest upset of the year x 2 in Richmond or West Coast today. Either of them winning, and taking four points off GWS/Brisbane, would do wonders. GC beating Port helps, but keeps GC close to us.

Reality is our fixture means if we get to 13 wins we're likely to make finals because that will require us to take four points of three of our rivals for finals spots.

You do realise it is possible that after tonight they may jump ahead of us without having kicked a ball today?

😯

Back in the Neeld era we could lose by 6 - 8 goals and gain percentage.

[layzie 34,528]

Need a few results to go our way today. Cross your fingers hard 

[Jibroni 5,057]

Lets go Suns and maybe the Tigers can pull off a mInor miracle against GWS.

[daisycutter 30,021]

pa ferals winning all the stats except the one that counts

[Nasher 33,686]

So long as GCS get the job done here, we will finish the week in the 8.

At the moment the mathematical range of possibilities for our finishing position next week is 4-11. At round 18, that’s insane. I honestly can’t remember a more interesting year.

Gold Coast hanging on through the third quarter, which is good for our home final/top 4 aspirations for the optimists (and for anyone anticipating a snort-laugh at the 'Pies dropping to 12th), but for the pessimists it is all about the late sunday shift with upsets for West Coast and Richmond offering pure icing on an already good round 18 cake.

[Nasher 33,686]

I can’t see West Coast beating Brisbane unless they pluck out the old play out of their skin now the coach is gone trick. They looked mentally and physically out of juice against us week. 

For some reason I’m more optimistic about Richmond beating GWS, although I should probably remind myself that the ladder is the way it is for good reason.

[Chook 15,069]

With GC looking like they'll upset port Adelaide, there's a real chance we'll be in the 8 after this round is done.
