2018 AFL and AFLW - Tipping comp details inside!

[Makena]

With their run home, I'd be very surprised if the Swans win again this year.

This aged well

Fucking Melbourne.

[brimlad]

doesn't look good crows away them GWS at the Gee, well at least we're not playing the Pies for the final game; the cats should win and sneak in and then it will be left to the port bombers match to see who gets the 8 though if port beat the pies...

Fucking

Dees

[storm84]

With their run home, I'd be very surprised if the Swans win again this year.

This aged well

Fucking Melbourne.

I'm very happy that the Swans won (and gutted for Alex Johnson), but with GWS and Hawks over the next two weeks I stand by those words.

[brimlad]

sad to see Johnson go down it's been a long road for that guy hope he gets through and nice that the Dees coach said a few good words...
on the up side Tahiti is going off

[brimlad]

got my tips in and feeling confident, I'll be surprised if I don't get 9

[storm84]

Still surprised.

[brimlad]

108 to 91 I think we won and I think we have a chance and a point for the true believers... I was going to post a dancing jig tube but they were all so lame

[Makena]

THE MIGHTY FUCKING MELBOURNE DEMONS!

[kharis]

Wrecked my week you bastards

[Mini]

The teams in the top 8 is pretty much set now... even if Geelong lose, it would have to be a huge fucking loss for them to drop out.
Now, where everyone sits in that top 8... that is alot more up for grabs.

Really, Richmond is the only one set... and well Geelong can only get themselves up to 7th at best.
Everyone else can go pretty much anything from 2nd to 7th... Amazingly close final week really. Especially when most top 8 teams are playing another top 8 team this week

[brimlad]

the important thing is that when the Dees win next they only need the swans v hawks to draw and we end up in the top 4

go the Dees !

[storm84]

I like that two games effectively settle the ladder:
1. Richmond
2. West Coast
3. Collingwood
4. Winner of Sydney vs Hawthorn
5. Winner of Melbourne vs GWS
6. Loser of Sydney vs Hawthorn
7. Loser of Melbourne vs GWS
8. Geelong

A draw in either game mixes it up a bit, while Melbourne losing big and Geelong winning big swaps 7 and 8. But it's pretty settled otherwise.

[Makena]

Melbourne could jump to 5th with a win over GWS, or if we start getting super unlikely, 4th if we win and Collingwood lose

So while the 8 is mostly set (It's unlikely Geelong will lose to Gold Coats, but stranger things have probably happened), the order is up for adjustment

[brimlad]

good analysis storm; still hopeful the Dees slide into fourth; more of a chance of a draw swans v hawks than the Pies losing to the dockers.

but good to have a last round with so many possibilities and more importantly the Dees into the finals, 12 years that be a long time away from anything...

go the Dees

oh fifteen minutes till question time... when too much sport isn't enough

[storm84]

Yeah, there's plenty of ways in which results could mix things up on the table, but looking at the draw and points / percentages, I think it's all sorted apart from who gets to play Richmond at the MCG and who gets the home final to play Geelong with the losers of those matches battling it out in elimination.

[Makena]

So, uh, I think Kharis just may have won this comp lol

[Mini]

I think that was decided a few weeks ago...
As for 2nd place...

[brimlad]

won is an understatement... Kharis for PM at least her rule will be stable.

yes game on for the for second and third, mini is confident but he's picked the safety selection, Makena he's going all Hotham, Dis, brim and storm we're gunning for second... big weekend...

Dees grabbing 5th... go the Dees

[kharis]

Can I have the pms salary without doing anything? Would probably get more accomplished than the current bunch of muppets

[brimlad]

I think you would Kharis

and Makena the brave, game on

[storm84]

With Geelong's massive victory, Melbourne need to win to not finish 8th and play GWS in the first week of the finals in Sydney.

[brimlad]

big game for the Dees they need to step and get a big win and give the fans some joy at the G

and mini under the pump, Makena equal second and 3 games to go, who will claim second... good way to finish

[Mini]

Tipped the same for the last 2, and Makena has a better margin, looks like he managed to steal it in the end.

[brimlad]

Makena just got 2nd with a stellar 9 from 9 round, Kharis way out in front gets the meat tray; been a good season with some amazing close games and the first round of finals footy looks set to deliver some more good games.

the Dees v Cats should be awesome for friday night footy and hopefully Makena will make the trip to the G to lift the Dees to a glorious win...

go the Dees

[storm84]

All psyched for finals week action tonight, and it turns out they've got a week off. Not a fan at all of the bye before the finals, unless it messes with the momentum of Richmond, in which case I'll tolerate it.
