We have locked in a finals birth and will finish either 7th or 8th (probably 7th) and will have an away final. The thing is we will play against either 5th or 6th which is far from settled. 5 teams are battling 2nd to 6th. Sydney, Brisbane, Fremantle, Melbourne and Collingwood will be our first final with Sydney being highly unlikely. So the question is who would you prefer to play given it will be played away?

We can run the table here. Question is can Hardwick convince or inspire his warriors to climb the mountain one more time.

Conflicted as it would be great if the blues miss the finals but would be great to play the pies in the first week too and would need the blues to beat them to make that happen. We still owe them one from 2018.

Blues missing would be one of the greatest things in world sport for many a decade .. the capitulation by a cheating grub of a club would surpass who we play in the first week of the finals for sure

The heartache of the Blues ferals would be an utter delight for the rest of the population
