Chances of the finals
« on: August 17, 2008, 05:41:19 PM »
How much of a chance are we?

If Freo beat the Saints

We beat Freo next week and then Carlton beat Brisbane next week we will be in the 8

Simple.......LOL

Fingers crossed.

Although we have no chance doing much it would be great experience for the kids.

Bloody Freo.

They were up by 3 goals and now are getting pumped!!!

I bet Mark Harvey is laying down just to stuff us up.

Lamentably lads Saints are now 27 points up having kicked the first 5 goals of the third quarter so if the trend in the Freo Saints game continues we will be 6 points outside the 8 so will be hoping for either Collingwood St Kilda to lose both their games and us winning both.

We have Freo at the G and Melbourne at the G
Saints have Adel at AAMI and Essendon at the Dome
Collingwood have Sydney at the Dome and Freo at Subi.

Would hate to see Freo use their trip at the G next week against us as their Grand Final only to go down to the Pies in the following week with us out of the finals picture and in 9th spot again. :banghead

Unfortunantely the way things stand our loss to the Saints in Round 7 and those 7 goals kicked by that little rodent Milne will haunt us come 2 weeks from now. :banghead

1.10 to 11.4 since half-time at Subi. Just another reason to hate Freo  :scream.

You're right HT. That Saints loss by just 3 freaking points which we should have won has come back to bite us  :banghead. They may lose to Adelaide and Essendon has had the wood over the Saints the last few times but you can bet St Kilda will win at least one of those. The worse thing is we will be teased until the last Sunday of round 22 as the Saints play the twilight game after our match against the Dees.

If we win our last 2 game which is a better than fair chance and a few things fall right for us we will make it. So I will have my fingers crossed that it all come to light.  :gotigers :gotigers :gotigers

Ironically, it may be ex Tiger Matty Knights who may need to get his Bombers up against the Saints in round 22.  Wonder if he would have extra motivation knowing that we would make the finals with a Bomber win????

this is the equation ...

assuming we win against Fremantle and Melbourne ...


we need ...


St Kilda v Adelaide (TD)
Essendon v St Kilda (TD)

we need St Kilda to have a massive fall for us to make the finals.

only if we win our two matches ...

Go Adelaide and Essendon !!!

OR


Collingwood v Sydney (TD)
Fremantle v Collingwood (Sub)


Go Sydney and Fremantle !!!

stuff the saints how good would it be if the swannies knock the pies off and then the dockers finish them off in the last round.

Then the tigers take their spot with a win against the demons....That would be incredible and i would then call for TW to be signed for 10 years
