I have given up on my tipping comp like 3 rounds ago. Too many risky choices I made during the first 10 rounds.

I played it safe this week after many disappointments by the Suns and Bulldogs/Carlton. I regret it.

Adelaide to beat Port as well 🤞🏻

They are hopeless those geriatric cats. I hope they don't make finals. They couldn't have an easier kill at home.

Geelong looks very disinterested in this game, not like a team playing for finals.

Geelong is not playing with the urgency of a team fighting for a spot in the 8.

GC and Freo win, we can get to the Lions and Geelong drop out of the top 8.

Surely Carlton can't pay both McKay and Curnow In the long run. I was surprised they were able to offer long term contracts to both of them.

Sadly, we are one year late. This should have been done before his new contract at Carlton l.

He final found home at Collingwood then 😂😂

What's the story behind Howes? Sorry he was before my time.

Nick Daicos playing just to stat pad what's been a horrible night for him 😂😂😂

I think binman is elated

Why can't both teams lose? 😩

Are those weak toe pokes counted as clearances for Daicos?

They may want to win but the real question is, Can they?

But then Reid is on an open market, any VIC team could bid for him.

As long as WC believes they can get Curtain with our picks, that may be enough.

Worse than a Carlton home game?

I hope they think the same in 4 years when their salary cap is cooked and they are still a middle of the pack team with no aspirations. 😁

Yep, a lot of teams playing three or even 4 times against those two sides will get an advantage compared to others not so lucky.

I reckon we are almost a lock in the top 4. Win against North and Hawthorn means Dogs,GWS and Geelong would need to win all 5, at the very least 4, of the remaining 5 games. Hard to see us losing the 4th spot if we win those two games that should be a given.

This may very well define our strategy moving forward in terms of resting players and managing the effort for each round. We need to make sure all our superstars are in prime physical condition for finals.

Do we prefer to finish 2nd, 3rd or 4th? Finish 4th and it's MCG against the Pies. Finish 3rd and play Port or Brisbane at their home ground. 2nd looks unlikely but there is still a chance, which would be a home final against an interstate team. I believe we are travelling better this year at the G, so my guess is that we prefer 2nd or 4th. We don't want to finish in 3rd.
