The_Ruffneck said:bit of a trick question , doesnt say if they mean at the end of 22 rounds or at the end of the finals series
But the Port/Essendon 1st/8th placing are always qualified by "at the end of Rd 22" or "before the finals" Ask anyone in the street who came 1st and 2nd in the AFL comp for the past 2 years and the correct answers are Brisbane and Collingwood.Rocket23 said:I dont even reckon it is a trick question, I think it is wrong. The ladder does not officially change whether it is at the end of the Finals or not. There is an award for whoever finishes on top so considering Port have won it the last two years and Essendon the year before do they have to give that Trophy to the Lions???
Essendon finished 8th this year & last year and history and the record books will say that!!

I dont think you can really rate 3rd to 8th cos the finals are really only set up to desice 1st and 2nd.

Losers in first week = 7th and 8th (highest ranked team before the finals gets 7th (ie Freo last year, Melb this year), losers in 2nd week 5th and 6th etc etc.Rocket23 said:Good point Row Z. If you dont have a play off for minor placings then how can you change the position of the ladder??
To me the question was who finished the season in 8th place. ie the 8th best team. That has to be post finals, as pre finals only Port fans care about!Pope I understand the way in which it works but the fact is if you ask anyone who knows about footy who finished on top the last 2 years they will say Port Adelaide. If you asked who won the GF they would say Brisbane. Brisbane didn't finish first they won the GF!!!
Same as Freo, WC last year, WC will get pick 3+8+1=12, Melb 13.On a side note. Who gets the higher draft pick Melbourne or West Coast???
