Home Qualifying Final is secured.

A shame that Carlton is playing finals.

I dunno whether to be happy or sad, does this benefit us in any way?

Best result for the Pies. Top 2 sewn up. Rest players for the next few weeks and hit the finals at top speed.

Melbourne losing means that it knocks one other contender out for Top 2.
Only Brisbane and PA can potentially catch us.
Hope for PA to lose, and we are guaranteed top 2.

Not sewn up. If we lose the next 2, and PA win the next 2, we will finish 3rd, with Brisbane on top, which would be a disaster (Final against PA away). Must still win one of the next two.

Freo set for their biggest Derby win in history.

Their previous biggest win against the Eagles was 75 points in 2010.

WC being thrashed by Freo. Would you believe 120-25 ?

Post by **Donny** » Sat Aug 12, 2023 10:31 pm

120-26. Ouch.

Yeah, I think WCE caved in to peer group pressure. In their current state of total collapse, the purple haze just became too much to resist - in a very parochial contest.

Only game of any consequence for us tomorrow is the last game of the round: PA vs GWS.
Pray to the pagan gods of football that PA lose, which will give us ownership of Top 2 regardless of what happens in the final 2 rounds.
