13 wins should get you into the finals now ...

With wins, North and Geelong are safe now you would think in 6th and 7th.

Swans, Pies, Weagels, Crows, Hawks just need sort out top 5 so home finals and a double chance still up for grabs with Pies and Crows losing yesterday. Swans, Hawks and Weagles should have easy wins today against GWS, Suns and Port respectively.

The 5th team is likely to be playing Freo which wont be easy altho it isnt in Perth.

Freo winning puts them in the front running to take 8th spot. Carlton still a chance as are Saints and Bombers but Richmond are done.

******************

Ladder before Sunday Aug 19th games ...

Sydney Swans 60 146%
Adelaide 60 125%
Collingwood 60 119%
Hawthorn 56 156%
West Coast Eagles 52 122%
North Melbourne 52 115%
Geelong Cats 52 114%
Fremantle 48 109%
Carlton 44 110%
Essendon 44 104%
St Kilda 40 116%
Richmond 36 110%

Adelaide play 2 of the cellar dwellers, Dees and Suns but as they showed yesterday, if you dont come to play you will lose. That being said, they should win both and get a good % boost and finish in the top 4, definitely and depending other games a top 2 and home final is a big chance.

Sydney, Hawks and Collingwood and West Coast play each other over the last 2 weeks. On form Hawks would be expected to win both (but playing Swans in Sydney and Weagles in Melb, no guarantees) their % would give them top or 2nd.

I'm saying Collingwood will be the team that falters, losing to West Coast but narrowly beat Bombers and fall to 5th on %.

So for me ... top 8 ...

Hawks
Adelaide
Sydney
West Coast
Colliingwood
North
Geelong
Fremantle

Watch it happen nothing like my summary ... Chuckle

how do you come to that after what they dished up last week and the fact they were lucky to beat them in melbourne with eagles fielding a weaker side then they will on the weekend?
