So... just coincidence, or has Clarko started coaching to win now there's no personal benefit for him to finish down the ladder?

 

[johnthegardener]

Not looking good for the Dockers with Essendon ahead of the Bulldogs. Still plenty of time to go.

 

[WaywardSonSon]

Did we just become best friends?

Most likely! Haha

More as a **** you to the club for turfing him. We need that kinda swagger.

Just checking the ladder I think WC will miss the 8 with GWS & Bombers finishing in 7&8 positions.
I doubt Carlton will win either of their last 2 & neither will we so we finish where we are now 13th & WC finish 9 which is the best result in terms of the draft we can hope for to pick in front of them.
A disappointing end to the year. It would be nice to win the Derby but we won’t get close with how we’re playing & Saints will smash us.

Doesn't WC need to beat us or Brisbane to play finals? I don't see how WC can finish ninth and Freo are so poor we finish 13th, one of the two has to win next weekend and that either pushes West Coast to 44 points and at best equal with all these other teams or we are a game clear of 13th

I see really the Bombers, Richmond or GWS in the 8 unless WC get kissed on the dick and get to play Brisbane in Perth.
St Kilda will beat us and lose next week.
Can’t see Carlton or GC winning enough games to go above us…
so I think we go in with pick 7 and 29

I'm pretty excited about winning the trade period this year. Hopefully we get some new shiny draft picks than can spend the next year's in the rehab group.

What a time to be alive.

Anyone else got the feeling Eagles will come out tonight and put the Dees away easily?

Little bit. I think they will win but not sure on the margin. Dees haven't been blown away this year and top spot is on offer so you'd think they would give a yelp. Guess it depends on how they rate the Eagles given only the Dogs of the top 7 have troubled them this year.

Hopefully it is a wet, brutal slog.

Nope. I feel the opposite.

About time drug dealer's are getting the public recognition and credit they deserve.

Am assuming that's his role? I honestly have no idea.

I think he’s he guy who could provide 45 urine samples a day during the Cousins, Kerr, Chick etc etc era.

No I think the dees will smash them. They have the ability to turn on the jets when they want to and they will want to finish top.

West coast lose tonight i cant see them playing finals even if you them include beating us next week.

44 points with their percentage wont cut it as GWS or Richmond one of them will more then likely win their last 2 depends on who wins that clash. As GWS have carlton and Richmond have hawks in last game so winner next week likely to win last round.

And Essendon have GC, Collingwood to finish off if they dont reach 44 from here that's a massive failure.

So west coast need 2 wins from last 3 i suspect beating just freo wont cut the mustard

 

[Taylor]

I think Melbourne have looked vulnerable all year, West Coast can get them

 

[nurries]

Melbourne are a more talented version of Freo. Apply the pressure to them and they fold under pressure. WC will win in a canter

They're in no danger from West Coast then. Have to be the only side that is comparable to us in pressure ratings.

 

[estibador]

I like the way this game is shaping up.

 

[Ge3ks]

Go Dees

 

[Bring back Drum]

I hope the Freo hierarchy are watching the structures of both teams forward line. In particular the role of the talls & the separation they have from each other.

Why would you want a fwd line that keeps their defender from being able to be a 3rd man up and impact the contest?

Funny how the "push in the back" rule comes back for eagle games
