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.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
