Win Prizes Port, Pies & Saints 2024 Death Ride

[Snuffaluphagus]

There are some rule changes, as it's my baby and there has been some... disappointing opinions in here. The thread is for cheering on picks, you deathride or you have civil conversations in the non-freo thread.

**** Port, **** Pies, **** Saints!!!!

Welcome pick 9 and 10

Saints are playing really good footy, they can do it next week I reckon

Looks more likely than WC at this stage.

Even then, Dogs and GWS is 50/50

So I reckon we finish 9th or 10th if this keeps going the way it is, with a Collingwood the other pick.

I think Port go out in straight sets giving us maybe 14 as well

9, 10, and 14 gives us a heap of flexibility

That’s lovely..assuming we can win…sweet summer child

Haha, yeah, more so that Carlton winning isn't the end of the world haha.

It's a hedge on my emotional well-being

We just need to win. Carlton will get a few back next week.

By at least winning we drop Collingwood one spot down and give us a shot should GWS knock off WB.

Us winning pushes port down and they tend to s*#t the bed in finals.

We will already know. We are the last game.

If we finish 9th or 10th does JLo come into question?

Not a chance. They backed him in when we were worse than this. They'll be counting all those close losses as wins.

Well if they do, we will NEVER win a premiership

And bringing up the injuries, which is something the MC could have avoided if they had played Reidy earlier and let Darcy get back in to match condition before recalling him

Esssendon, Hawks, and Geelong were all lost at team selection. Pure arrogance expecting Jackson to perform when he hasn't done so for weeks, or expecting Darcy to get up when he couldn't even walk properly all week.

The GWS one I'd argue was more on the players. Maybe on the coach for not subbing out Banners. But the amount of easy shots we missed and unforced errors when the game was on the line in the final minutes was more so player's fault.

Noone wins after playing Freo for some reason


So probs rule out GWS



What a waste of a year wowee

There's some crazy cope from the Pollyannas on this forum. Counting losses as wins, saying they didn't care about this season, we'll be good for years to come.

 

[freo_leo29]

Pies confirmed top 10 pick

They would need to beat Dees by 100 and Blues lose by 100, it just aint happening

I'm just happy to compete.

Yes



Genuinely every single thing that happened in the AFL went wrong that round.



It even extended to my fantasy team so I lost a prelim too

Just means everything has to go our way next round right.......right?

 

[Cobbler]

Pies dropping out of the 8 was a dream. Saints sliding was good too.

Solid thread. Enjoyed the posts.

I’d love to push another 1st forward into 2025.

Nothing left to ride really.

I wasn't gonna say that in my post but didn't want to tempt fate

Our pick keeps getting better
