@mariner4life and it was all across the park that they had struggles. The Hawks talks were killing it.
Real test for the Pies coaches to see if they can be ruthless with some of their selections.

Fucking stupid Lions

Dogs got the win they needed, but their problem was, the only top 8 teams to lose were in the top 4. So their equation still hasn't changed. Win out, hope someone else loses.
Adelaide had to fight harder than expected but they got theirs.
Geelong barely got out of 2nd gear to beat the Dons.
Freo toughed out at Port
The Suns keep doing things they have never done, and that's go away and win the ones they are supposed to. They are looking good for top 4.
GWS of course pumped North.The Lions are now in danger and need to win both against Freo and Hawthorn to get top 4, and win at least one to even make the 8! Also the fixture can get absolutely fucked. We've had double ups against Geelong, Collingwood, Gold Coast, Hawthorn and the Dogs. Geelongs double ups against the top 9? Lions and GWS. And they will only leave Victoria 5 times all year.

Looms as an awesome last few rounds. Top teams hanging on, few teams at the bottom who might have something to prove. Nobody really in full tank mode.
You'd have to think the Lions get one of the next two. Surely. Maybe? Would still rather be them than the Dogs.
-
Our best is still the best in the comp, but our injury toll is horrific, and Lachie Neale is a huge out. We should get the 1 we need to play finals and that might be enough as the top 8 is incredibly even.
But even if we miss i can't wait for the finals, every team will be thinking they are a chance.

@barbarian said in AFL 2025:
as long as you are in the eight.
If the table I'm looking at is right we are. Yay, yay.
We on 64, 9th placed Bulldogs on 52 with two games left, best they can do then is 60.
Game this week v Collingwood for the minor premiership, give or take mathematicals.
Also, if the ladder I'm looking at is right, why have GC and Essendon only played 20 games, and everybody else has played 21?
-
because the Qld games on the opening weekend got washed out, and they were unable to reschedule the Suns game (Lions and Geelong both had a bye in like week 3 and played then).
They will play two games in the last round -
