The unofficial "Where is T&T?" who to root for thread
Finals bound - want these teams to beat the other top 8 threats as they are in anyway
1. GEE 13 wins & 141%
2. COL 11 & 117%
3. BL 11 & 114%
4. WCE 11 & 113%
5. RIC 10 & 104%, 6 MCG games to come
Top 8 threats - these are the ones we want to lose, excluding us!
6. ESS 10 & 103%, played extra game
7. GWS 9 & 121%, injury plagued
8. ADE 9 & 110%, played extra game
9. PA 8 & 105%
10. WB 8 & 94%
11. HAW 7 & 100%
12. NM 7 & 99%
13. FRE 7 & 96%
Out of it - hoping these teams can take some scalps when they play our top 8 threats
14. SYD 6 & 95%
15. STK 6 & 80%
16. MEL 5 & 80%
17. CAR 4 & 83%
18. GC 3 & 64%
Round 18
RIC V PA
Tigers unlikely to miss the 8 with 10 wins on the board and 6 MCG games remaining
CAR V GC
No impact
GWS V COL
Collingwood with 11 wins & 117% are almost there anyway
BL V NM
Brisbane with 11 wins & 114% are almost there anyway
FRE V SYD
Freo on 7 wins and Sydney on 6
GEE V HAW
Geelong on 13 wins are home, Hawthorn still in the mix
MEL V WCE
Dees are Gawn
STK V WB
A win gets us to 9-8, 12-10 we're a chance and 13-9 we're in
Our 4 main rivals for a top 8 spot are Essendon, Adelaide, GWS and Port, need to finish ahead of 2 of those 4
Essendon beating Adelaide last night probably bodes well for us as Adelaide have the softer draw ahead
GWS & Port big chances to be beaten by Collingwood & Richmond this week, root your hearts out!

Great thread bd. We are up to date with our rooting now.
-
Re: The unofficial 2019 "Where is T&T?" who to root for thread
First and foremost we need to suitcase the Saints tomorrow. It's probably our only shot at getting the percentage back to square.
-
Re: The unofficial 2019 "Where is T&T?" who to root for thread
Richmond doing the right thing so far against the Power. 22 points up 17 mins in during the third quarter.

Re: The unofficial 2019 "Where is T&T?" who to root for thread
Tigers did the right thing but gws are giving the pies a hiding early .
-
Re: The unofficial 2019 "Where is T&T?" who to root for thread
The rooting was going so well until the Pies ruined the mood.

Hooray for this thread. All good, been a bit busy work wise and life wise

Re: The unofficial 2019 "Where is T&T?" who to root for thread
I was so cut that the Swans fell short at the death. And North were not far away.

The South result doesn't matter to us and the North result went our way so I am not that upset

Re: The unofficial 2019 "Where is T&T?" who to root for thread
Can't imagine getting cut about whether another team wins or loses unless it has a direct affect on us.

Unless you pick them in a tipping comp.

True true I don't tip and didn't think of that.

Re: The unofficial 2019 "Where is T&T?" who to root for thread
We are still competing with Freo for a spot and their percentage is slightly better than hours. If they had lost surely this would have been a plus for us. If there is something I've missed - pray do tell.
-
Re: The unofficial 2019 "Where is T&T?" who to root for thread
Just realised Brisbane are second! They got right under my radar. I thought they were still in the mix but looks like they're out of the oven, on the plate AND - ready to be sliced up by us at the Gabba! Go Dogs!

Re: The unofficial 2019 "Where is T&T?" who to root for thread
hawks up by 32 half time. cmon cats!
-
Re: The unofficial 2019 "Where is T&T?" who to root for thread
Hawks by 18 points half way through 3rd quarter
-
Re: The unofficial 2019 "Where is T&T?" who to root for thread
Hawks by 19 with a quarter to go.
-
Re: The unofficial 2019 "Where is T&T?" who to root for thread
Can we delete this thread please.

Re: The unofficial 2019 "Where is T&T?" who to root for thread
We are probably rooting in vain now but just for the hell of it, let's hope the following happens this weekend:
Dogs beat Freo
Carlton beat Adelaide
Brisbane beat Hawks
GWS beat Port
West Coast beat North
Melbourne beat St Kilda

The least safe bet in that pool is arguably us.

Thanks Axeman
Melbourne v St Kilda & West Coast v North probably irrelevant, but if Gold Coast can get their shit together against Essendon that would help

Yeah just to mathematically finish off the saints and north. I didn’t bother mentioning Gold Coast because that ain’t going to happen unfortunately.

Wouldn’t it be nice though. Already Essendon supporters getting on your nerves.

Re: The unofficial 2019 "Where is T&T?" who to root for thread
So far going our way. We must must win tomorrow.

Re: The unofficial 2019 "Where is T&T?" who to root for thread
To say our season lives or dies tomorrow is putting it lightly. We win tomorrow and we may still have some lattitude to drop 1 game out of Brisbane, GWS, Essendon or Adelaide and still sneak into 8th on 12 wins.
A win tomorrow - providing GWS beat Port tonight, and we're outright 9th and only out of 8th in %.
I hope that scenario is a source of motivation for the lads tomorrow.
I've Geelong finishing top of ladder and Wet Toast 2nd. I'd much rather play Geelong in Vic rather than the Eagles in the west. Yes I know we burnt their house down in 2016, but think it would be a different proposition this year.

Yep we would be equal 8th just % keeping us out if all that happens.

I know it's woulda, shoulda, coulda. But geez last week hurts given what we could've been playing for tomorrow if we'd not shit the bed against the Saints.

Absolutely. So disappointing last week in particular that terrible first quarter.

I believe if we’d won last week we would’ve been out of the 8 on %... so stay tuned for a choke tomorrow!
