      Do we generally like the bolded teams winning?

      I think we're too far back from Sydney and Brisbane so better for them to knock back a team aspiring for the 8 and another just ahead of us in GWS who we can overtake if we keep winning.

      Freo/Geelong is a bit of a win/win but it might be the only chance we get to overtake Geelong. They have 2 games they should win comfortably coming up

      Hawks would be nice if they drop away but I have them missing the 8 even if they beat Carlton so pegging Carlton back off our tail would be helpful

        We have our destiny almost totally in our hands.

        Freo over Geelong helps for top 4.
        Sydney lose all 3 remaining and we can overtake them
        Collingwood are no threat if we keep winning
        GWS are taken care of by us if we keep winning.
        Carlton and Hawthorn are no threat to our position if we keep winning.

        Pleasure in a Carlton loss would be tempered by Hawthorn being potentially more of a finals threat.

        Essendon no threat to us but losing to Gold Coast would cement them to 20 years without a finals win, but leave them with a chance of another finals loss.

              Sydney have lost everything , backline is stuffing up everything and the mids have no connection with the forwards.
              Amazing turnaround to lose all the team work they had going.
              Let’s see if the first 15 min is all they had but you can’t get much worse.

                Sydney are gone. It's only quater time but Pies have dominated after the first ten minutes.

                    Did I see Leon Cameron on the Sydney bench and McCartney on the pies bench ?

                      Leon is the "Executive General Manager of Football" at the swans.

                        Swans look shot.

                        This is some capitulation. But I called this. Their model was so unsustainable.

                          Whatever that music is after the swans kick a goal is horrid.

                            Not sure if this shows that the Swans aren’t done, or that the Pies are gettable, no matter what.
