I see what you did there. Leaving sides that aren't currently in the top 8 out of your analysisSwans, Brisbane and the Doggies (if they make it) are the only legit chances. The rest of the top 8 are pretenders.
More likely a top 8 spot given how tight it is.Can teams take the risk of doing the pre finals increase in training loads? Might cost teams finals or top 4 spot.
Really enjoy Abby's post game interviews.
Our bottom 6 is easily better than Carlton's imo.
And Sammy has Voss covered by a factor of 10Our bottom 6 is easily better than Carlton's imo.
Neither of the 2 teams appeared to be top 8 teams last night. Very average level of football.I was watching last night thinking we'd slaughter Carlton if they dish that up at the G in 2 weeks.
Hawthorns ball handling last week in the pouring rain was levels above. The ball handling by both sides last night was appallingNeither of the 2 teams appeared to be top 8 teams last night. Very average level of football.

Some sides are looking tired in this stretch before the finals, while we are still looking powerful with our running. This is why I strongly believe Ward and Maginness coming in now has been excellent management and planning, keeping our elite run strong while many sides are struggling with injuries, sore bodies etc. It could be a competitive advantage to cover over some of our other deficiencies.
They'll wilt in the 3rd.Two observations:
1. Geelong appears to have played their Grand Final against us.
2. North is showing a familiar pattern. For two years now, they are playing well in the season’s garbage time after playing so poorly when it mattered. I was tired of that pattern at Hawthorn.
