If I've read the ladder correctly, Fremantle make the eight if they beat Port next week and any of Carlton (v St Kilda), Hawthorn (v North) or Footscray (v GWS) lose.  They're in with a show but have to win to be any chance.

Correct. 

Fremantle’s destiny is out of their hands. They may be eliminated by the time they play, if those three sides all win. But if any lose, they will pass the loser(s) with a win because of their draw. 

Collingwood effectively eliminated (mathematically alive but need 150+ point swings or something).

    How Fagan continually puts up with that perenial big game choker in ERIC HIPWOOD Bafles me. Until they banish him and a few others who choke in big games, they will go nowhere

    He's only ever played a big final against us in 22 lol  ....And inducted himself into: The Kent Kingsley Memorial Society of Spuds Who Play Well Against Melbourne

    Freo missing finals on 13.5 wins will be pretty funny

    Although the Blues losing on 13 would be better

    Ha ha 24 hours ago the ferals were [censored] a hoot, the players were celebrating.

    24 hours later they're flat & now whinging about games they lost earlier in the season. 

    Just would have been sweeter if they lost that gf last year.

    Oh well. After next week I don't have to see them or essendon play again this year

    So, the pies win a flag - and fail to make the finals the following year.

    Culture issues?

    On First Crack, all three panelists had us as the most disappointing club 2024. Collingwood 4 pts in front of us was 2nd, 3rd most disappointing and Huddo didnt even have them in the top 4 most disappointing. 

    Im not suggesting we don’t belong there but surely that #1 spot solely goes to the pies - the reigning premiers ?

    Guess they all know Pies fluked a flag they didn’t really deserve. Hence it’s little wonder they are where they are.

    How are Adelaide and St Kilda not numbers 1 and 2?

    David King had written us off prior to the Carlton pre-season game, whilst he talked St Kilda up all summer.

    Adelaide was supposed to be the next big thing and are going to finish bottom 4.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
