    Had a sneaky that the Eagles would win . I thought GWS were very unimpressive against an undermanned Gold Coast last week .

        Maybe the blow torch will actually get applied to Port if this game finishes the way it's started.

          That Eagles win is yet another Steve in tbe rollercoaster that is 2016.

          If Geelong win against Richmond tomorrow they'll probably finish 4th.

          5th, 6th and 7th areare a raffle at the moment. Absolutely cannot drop the ball in the next 2 weeks. If we want a home final we must win both the next 2 games.

          I can easily see GWS and WC dropping their Round 23 games. If they do ask eyes will be on us on the Sunday.

                    Yep, less interstate teams in the top 4 the better.

                      Interesting if WC and GWS drop one.

                      If we win both, we take 5th and play North at the G.

                      Would never happen, but tanking against Freo to guarantee a home final against WC is an interesting prospect.

                        Say North were playing the Eagles at Etihad next week, who would you pick? Very line ball, same/same to me. Yes it will be at the G, but North are better at Etihad anyway.

                          Also, if we can't beat North at the MCG, we simply do not deserve to make it to week 2.

                            North match up on us ok and I'd hate to lose to them in a final. Would prefer to play WC in Melbourne every day of the week.

                              Well, that's obvious

                              Match ups are weird. North are one team that are tricky. I'd still be confident, but not as much as I would be playing WC.

                              5th has us playing loser of 1st v 4th in the 2nd week, so likely Hawks or Cats, then onto either Adelaide or Sydney. Tough however you look at it.
