    There's a certain joy to be had in what's happening to Melbourne.

          Bit less - if they win 86 to 66 for example Melbourne are gone. West Coke have a better defence so require less points-for than Melbourne.

          If Geelong win tonight, it guarantees Adelaide finish on top. That is bad news for Melbourne as the Crows will go half rat power tomorrow - they've already rested Walker and Talia from the selected side.

            So if they keep Adelaide under 70pts, a 20pt win gets them in. Over 70 but under 90 a 21pt win gets them in. Above that 22-23pts will do it. Certainly possible given Adelaide might have nothing to play for. Talia and Walker already rested. As bad as this year was we're still not Melbourne!

              I hope it happens. Dees fans will always have their GF win they can look back on: A comfortable win over the reigning premiers.

                  GWS are imposters this year. Very good chance they finish 4th and cop Adelaide away in the first final.

                    How on earth did Stevie J get a game ahead of someone like De Boer who has been decent ?
                    The plastics just don't defend well enough to win it. To easy to score from their forward 50

                        Is it any wonder Gaz keeps faking injury to avoid playing for this rabble.

                          Only in gold coast could you sack a coach and then end up losing by an average of 70 points in the next 3 weeks

                            Can see the AFL stepping in at GC over the summer and putting in an over riding committee and also choosing the coach / assistants etc. Might even give them the first 10 draft picks you know just to make it an even competition.

                              Gold Coast only needed to get within 10 goals of Port to keep Sydney 5th for GWS in week 2. Now GWS will probably host Port
                              If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.
