That would see Pies in 8th if Port beat Freo.

Win our next two and if Freo, Geelong and Brisbane all lose next week (all favourites and at home) win finish 4 th?
Freo moot. We’ll be above them after tomorrow.

So we just need to win our next two and for Brisbane and Geelong to lose next week?

Geelong. Too old, too slow. Some of their stalwarts have trouble bending down to pick up the ball.
Zero chance both Bris and Geel lose next week. Once again we’re our own worst enemy
Mate if we lose tomorrow I don’t think we need to worry about next week or the week after.
Just have to win. Don't care by how much.

Zac Butters 42 touches. Come home Zac. We'll set you up with a nice house in Willi, a late model Mercedes van with low km, and all the Mission corn chips you can eat!

What concerns me is if we win both games, we will be playing Hawthorn as they won't lose their last 2 games.. we will probably finish 6th and them 7th
Thats a free hit to them with nothing to lose. The pressure is on us

But I’d much rather the Hawks at the G rather than playing interstate. Shaping to be the only final in Melbourne so 90K+. Terrific experience and we can deal with it.
Tomorrow first.
He’s such a gun. Skill, pace, aggression with a bit of mongrel, tackles hard, and one of the best side steps in the game. Would give up plenty for him in a heartbeat.

I'll let the club focus on winning tomorrow, and since I can't contribute to that outcome, I'll speculate on possibilities.

The options are looking like us vs Hawthorn at the G, vs Brisbane at the Gabba or miss the finals completely. I’m happy with Hawthorn, thats a game we should win still.

If we are 6th and Hawks 7th, we might play at marvel as it would be our home game

Great player but such an annoying twat, racking up a nice rap sheet of dives too.

Has to be at the MCG because it’ll be the only game in Melbourne. But almost certainly would anyway, they aren’t locking out 30-40k fans
Edit: This is what was said in an article about Geelong hosting a final at GMHBA
“The contract the AFL has with the MCG stipulates that if there's only one final in Victoria in weeks one, two and three, it must be played at the MCG. Victorian preliminary finals must also be played at the MCG with a contract to 2059 for an MCG Grand Final.”
“Under the terms of the MCG’s contract with the AFL, any finals games in the first two weeks of the finals – the qualifying, elimination and semi-finals – with an expected crowd of 55,000 or more must be played at the home of football, the MCG”

MCG all the way.
Certainly can make an argument week 1 if we earn the right to play at Marvel considering we play there mostly but ultimately the MCG is where it is at during finals and you have to play there to win the flag.

I think we should play all our finals at the MCG, it’s just unfair that we never get to play there during the season. Played more games at the Adelaide Oval than the MCG this season
I think with their issues they are not likely to win both games.
You’re not wrong, but every side in the top bracket has blown games inexplicably. We aren’t alone. I always assumed we’d drop one or two from the last stretch but never figured we’d barrel Carlton, Geelong, Sydney and Melbourne and lose to Adelaide.
It’s a funny spot to be in. We now look likely to win 13 or 14 which we would have taken every day of the week at round nine, yet winning 13 wouldn’t even guarantee finals.
