Game Day The battle of the Port, v Freeo

[FishingRick04]

This isn't correct. If we score 55, we can allow Freo to score 78 before we drop below Geelong.

The table of maximum Freo scores we can allow, is here:

That oft forgotten last line to the Creed. "Unless it is unlikely to have an impact on the result in which case don't bother, even if it causes us to lose we can still reasonably put it down to bad luck, so its cool". On SM-G975F using BigFooty.com mobile app Seems you have reading...

GWS has pulled players and tanked their game today, so Freo might be super unmotivated

 

[Greasyrhys]

As much as I want us to win, the ideal results would be for the dogs and saints to win, and for us to go down narrowly with no injuries/suspensions.

Play hard for a half then coast the game out waiting for finals.

Double chance is secured, that is all that matters. Feel the other top 3 teams port can match up on and beat if they come to play.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Its more than a port, its the true wharfie tradition.

Fremantle wharfies yesterday cancelled their 48 hour strike for today and tomorrow. Maybe they have given up on Freo.

Wonder if the Giants want to play their first final in Sydney against the Swans. Makes sense.

Hinkley saying the quiet part out loud about Houston being a single player and replaceable in the system.

I think we're going to struggle today.

I think it's better than "Dan is a big loss, this is also going to be a tough game against quality side at their home"

I'd rather play us in Sydney.

GWS pulled players? Damn because they're looking good right now

 

[manureid]

So haven't really looked at it, but if the giants win we probably want to lose and drop to 4th and play Sydney away vs winning and playing GWS at home? Is that the deal?

 

[V8clock]

What margin can we lose by while still hanging onto 2nd?

 

[PJ Power]

May well be that anyway.

Dogs are shit ...lose today and we're cooked. We'll need a home final if we want to get through

 

[Powerade 08]

2 GWS players clear heavy hits to the head, not checked for concussion.

 

[portly]

I want to win, well.

Stuff stuffing around.

Just do it.

 

[philreich]

It’s annoying that Geelong got that artificial bump to percentage by playing the Seminyak eagles.

Ah well should be an exiting day with all the machinations.

Then again, we had the chance to do something similar in round 1, but we kicked 16:24 (plus they were allowed to kick one of their goals from the 5th row of the grandstand). But hey - if we're good enough, we can win anywhere, any time.

It would be nice to earn 2nd outright but if we don't have to win I wouldn't be risking Mitch.

 

[Sun_Burn]

Dogs are shit

Whys that?

See the original post

 

[EskimoPAFC]

Essentially we have to win this or lose by what, under 20 points?

No room for error.

We lose and we mostly likely play Geelong and the Hawks, and I can see what will happen there.

We need to stay on the other side of the draw and at home.

No excuses Kenny or you’ll be shipped out!

Think we win this well.

Geelong is the only team we've been able to beat in a final in the last decade

 

[Alberton Proud]

Bring it on
