Yup - if Collingwood don’t want to play, then they should forfeit the 4 points.Now I want to keep it exactly the same and get Collingwood in week 0. Call their bluff, **** em.
All for an easy 4 points to start the season.Yup - if Collingwood don’t want to play, then they should forfeit the 4 points.
Unfortunately no :-(Anyone think North can knock off the Swans?
What will be, will be.Unfortunately no :-(
Btw a lot of 8 point games this weekend, so unsure which combination of results work best for us, but I think this is what we want?
- Hawthorn (8 wins) vs Fremantle (10.5 wins) = Hawthorn win
- Bulldogs (8 wins) vs Carlton (11 wins) = Bulldogs
- Adelaide vs St Kilda = doesn’t matter!
- Melbourne (9 wins) vs Essendon (10.5 wins) = probably Essendon as I think they will definitely make the 8 regardless of this match, and Melbourne are still in contention with us?
- Gold Coast (8 wins) vs Port (10 wins) = Gold Coast
- and hard to see it happening but West Coast beating Brisbane (9.5 wins)
AFL CEO conference: All the latest information after 18-club meeting
A host of ideas and topics were discussed at a meeting with the AFL’s chief executives, including ball-tracking, a finals wildcard weekend, an in-season tournament, state of origin and more.

The AFL has confirmed it could introduce ball tracking technology for the AFLW season within weeks as club chief executives discussed a wildcard finals weekend and a radical in-season tournament at their Perth conference.
The league’s chief executives were informed on Tuesday the league had not yet decided when to introduce changes to the draft bidding system this year, but all clubs will now be able to match bids for academy players across the entire draft this November.
The clubs were also told the length of a contract would now be a critical factor in any free agency compensation, which could help St Kilda secure first-round compensation if Josh Battles leaves for Hawthorn on a six-year deal.
Previously a free agency contract only needed to have two guaranteed seasons at a certain salary, but now a longer contract will help win maximum compensation for a player’s previous club.
The Herald Sun exclusively revealed last month the ball-tracking trials conducted by the AFL were going so well the league was keen to introduce the technology for the AFLW season starting in seven weeks.
AFL football boss Laura Kane confirmed in her note to chief executives on Tuesday night the league was serious about that proposal.
“Testing is going very well. We need to pass another key milestone (in terms of testing) in July. As you know, the more we test, the more accurate the data. This is progressing and there is potential it comes in for the upcoming 2024 NAB AFLW Season,” she wrote.
“If implemented in AFLW, it would come in as ‘score assist’ to help with goal review decisions (post, touched, etc) with immediate feedback for our AFLW umpires.”
If successful, the technology would be introduced for the 2025 men’s competition.
The league last year threw up a wildcard weekend as a discussion point, with possibilities ranging from an 8 v 9 playoff on the weekend of the pre-season bye to a 7 v 10 and 8 v 9 system where the final two spots in the eight were decided.
That proposal was again raised, with the AFL aware it might have to expand its finals format at the latest by 2028 when Tasmania forms a 19th team.
Gold Coast chief executive Mark Evans has also proposed an in-season tournament similar to the NBA’s successful tournament where clubs play for premiership points but are also in a simultaneous knock-out tournament with a separate cash prize.
It drew massive ratings and a positive response from fans this year as the LA Lakers won the inaugural tournament.
The league’s executives also discussed a potential pre-season tournament, state of origin and a potential All Stars game.
Fremantle chief executive Simon Garlickpresented to the chief executives on “travel considerations and discussed ideas around equalising”, according to the AFL.PLAYERCARDSTARTSimon Garlick

The Dockers are keen for an extra home clash in the fixture and would like greater fixture parity, with the Dockers staying an extra week in Adelaide through Gather Round and having to travel to Launceston last weekend to take on the Hawks.
The league told clubs rookies would now be able to remain on club lists for five years.
It is yet to decide whether it will make changes to the points model for its draft in 2024 or 2025.
The league is set to introduce the mid-season trading of picks this year or next year.

‘Utterly unacceptable’: Freo’s horror flight as ghastly details revealed
‘Utterly unacceptable’: Freo’s horror flight as ghastly details revealedwww.foxsports.com.au
The Fremantle Dockers have suffered a horror flight where passengers were allegedly compelled to urinate in basins while staff were forced to manually scoop toilet waste into basins.
The AFL team was reportedly on a chartered National Jet Express flight from Launceston to Perth following their loss to Hawthorn on Saturday night when the plane ran out of water after just half an hour.
The Transport Workers Union – representing the cabin crew – has expressed deep concern over the ordeal, claiming staff and passengers were opened up to an unsanitary and unsafe environment as the toilets were left non-functional.
If we’re a fair dinkum team we should only drop one game for the rest of the home and away season.Starting tonight, we should be barracking hard for any team in the bottom 5.
If these bottom 5 teams can get some wins over the other teams in final contention it could make a massive difference for us.
Go the Crows!
Even if we win 5 out of 6 games, we could still miss the top 4 depending on other results. So I'd prefer to hope for the ones that will help us.If we’re a fair dinkum team we should only drop one game for the rest of the home and away season.
Either against Dogs or Lions.
We shouldn’t give a flying rats tossbag about other results with our run home
All we have to do is finish 4th and all our finals are in Sydney. (Bar the Granny, cause, well, Vic Bias)Even if we win 5 out of 6 games, we could still miss the top 4 depending on other results. So I'd prefer to hope for the ones that will help us.
Yeah. Given that the ladder is made up of wins, losses and draws + % so unless we're at the very top of the ladder, other teams losses shouldn't be discounted, IMO, as that will determine where we land even if we do win x amount of games.Even if we win 5 out of 6 games, we could still miss the top 4 depending on other results.

Very handy for usThank you Crows. Happy to take the help.
