Perpetuity AEST.Adams to likely skip yet another GF?|03:011. SYDNEY SWANS (16-6, 126.3%) To play: Adelaide Crows at the SCG, Sunday 7:40 pmWin or Miss: Finish 1stAnalysis: There are actually no sensible cases where the Swans crash to win the slight premiership. There are actually impractical ones, though! A 100-point reduction, while Slot Adelaide beats Fremantle by 100 points, would certainly carry out it.Fox Footy's forecast: Win and finish 1st, bunch Geelong in a qualifying final2. SLOT ADELAIDE (15-7, 114.2%) To play: Fremantle at Optus Stadium, Sunday 6:10 pmWin: End up 2nd if GWS loses OR wins and also doesn't compose 7-8 target percentage gap, 3rd if GWS success and also comprises 7-8 target percentage gapLose: Complete 2nd if GWS loses (and also Slot aren't defeated through 7-8 targets more than the Giants), 3rd if GWS gains, 4th in really unexpected scenario Geelong succeeds as well as composes gigantic portion gapAnalysis: The Electrical power will certainly possess the advantage of knowing their exact instance moving into their last video game, though there's a quite genuine possibility they'll be actually virtually secured right into 2nd. And also either way they are actually going to be playing in the Second Qualifying Final. Their percentage lead on GWS is actually about 7-8 targets, and on Geelong it is actually closer to twenty, so they're most likely not getting caught due to the Kitties. Consequently if the Giants gain, the Energy will definitely require to win to secure second spot - yet just as long as they do not acquire thrashed through a hopeless Dockers side, amount should not be actually a problem. (If they gain by a couple of goals, GWS will need to have to succeed through 10 goals to capture all of them, and so on) Fox Footy's prophecy: Succeed as well as end up 2nd, bunch GWS in a training final3. GWS GIANTS (15-7, 111.7%) To participate in: Western Bulldogs at Mars Coliseum, Sunday 12:30 pmWin: Complete second if Slot Adelaide drops OR triumphes but quits 7-8 objective bait amount, 3rd if Port Adelaide succeeds and has amount leadLose: End up 2nd if Port Adelaide is trumped by 7-8 targets more than they are actually, 3rd if Slot Adelaide wins OR drops however has amount top and also Geelong loses OR triumphes as well as doesn't compose 10-goal percent gap, fourth if Geelong triumphes and makes up 10-goal percentage gapAnalysis: They're locked right into the top 4, and also are likely having fun in the 2nd vs third qualifying last, though Geelong absolutely knows just how to surge West Shoreline at GMHBA Coliseum. That is actually the only means the Giants will drop out of participating in Port Adelaide a large win by the Kitties on Sunday (our company're speaking 10+ objectives) and after that a Giants loss to the Bulldogs on Sunday. If the Felines don't gain significant (or win in all), the Giants will be playing for holding rights to the Second Qualifying Final. They can either comprise a 7-8 objective gap in portion to pass Port Adelaide, or just really hope Freo trumps them.Fox Footy's prophecy: Lose and also finish third, away to Port Adelaide in a certifying finalZach Tuohy discusses selection to resign|00:534. GEELONG (14-8, 107.7%) To participate in: West Coast Eagles at GMHBA Arena, Sunday 1:45 pmWin: End up 3rd if GWS loses and also surrenders 10-goal percentage top, fourth if GWS gains OR sheds but keeps percentage top (fringe case they may meet second with substantial win) Lose: Finish fourth if Brisbane, Western Bulldogs, Hawthorn and also Carlton shed, 5th if 3 lose, 6th if two drop, 7th if one sheds, 8th if they all winAnalysis: Well, they truly screwed that one up. Coming from appearing like they were going to construct percent and secure a top-four location, right now the Pussy-cats require to succeed merely to assure on their own the double chance, with four groups wishing they drop to West Shoreline so they can easily pinch 4th coming from them. On the in addition side, this is actually one of the most askew competition in modern footy, with the Eagles losing nine direct excursions to Kardinia Park through around 10+ goals. It is actually not unrealistic to imagine the Cats gaining by that frame, as well as in mix along with even a narrow GWS loss, they 'd be heading right into an away training final vs Port Adelaide (for the 3rd attend 5 seasons!). Otherwise a gain ought to send them to the SCG. If the Cats in fact shed, they will probably be delivered into a removal final on our prophecies, all the way up to 8th! Fox Footy's prediction: Gain as well as end up 4th, away to Sydney in a training final5. BRISBANE LIONS (13-8-1, 121.6%) To play: Essendon at the Gabba, Saturday 7:30 pmWin: End up fourth if Geelong drops, fifth if Geelong winsLose: Finish 5th if Western side Bulldogs shed as well as Hawthorn shed as well as Carlton shed and also Fremantle shed OR gain however lose big to get over big amount space, 6th if 3 of those occur, 7th if 2 occur, 8th if one takes place, skip finals if none happenAnalysis: Not merely did they police officer another agonizing reduction to the Pies, however they got the incorrect crew above them dropping! If the Lions were entering Shot 24 anticipating Slot or even GWS to shed, they 'd still have a real shot at the best 4, but definitely Geelong does not drop in your home to West Coast? Just as long as the Felines finish the job, the Lions must be bound for a removal last. Beating the Bombers would certainly then ensure all of them 5th place (and also is actually the side of the brace you wish, if it indicates preventing the Bulldogs and also Hawks in full week one, and probably obtaining Geelong in full week pair of). A shock loss to Essendon will see Chris Fagan's side nervously enjoying on Sunday to view the amount of groups pass them ... technically they can skip the 8 entirely, yet it is quite outlandish for Fremantle to pass them.Fox Footy's forecast: Win and also end up 5th, multitude Carlton in an eradication finalSelfish Lions recorded avoiding colleagues|01:046. WESTERN SIDE BULLDOGS (13-9, 123.8%) To play: GWS Giants at Mars Coliseum, Sunday 12:30 pmWin: Complete 4th if Geelong as well as Brisbane lose, fifth if one loses, 6th if both winLose: End up sixth if Hawthorn, Carlton and also Fremantle shed, 7th if two drop, 8th if one drops, overlook finals if they all winAnalysis: Annoyingly for the Bulldogs, they may still overlook the 8, despite having the AFL's second-best percent and thirteen victories (which nobody has EVER overlooked the eight with). In reality it's an incredibly real opportunity - they still require to perform versus an in-form GWS to guarantee their place in September. But that is actually certainly not the only thing at concern the Pets would assure on their own a home last along with a success (likely at the MCG vs Hawthorn), yet even though they stay in the eight after losing, they can be heading to Brisbane for that removal ultimate. At the other end of the range, there is actually still a small opportunity they can easily slip right into the best four, though it needs West Shoreline to beat Geelong in Geelong, and Essendon to defeat Brisbane in Brisbane ... thus a very small chance. Fox Footy's forecast: Win as well as finish 6th, 'range' Hawthorn in an eradication final7. HAWTHORN (13-9, 111.8%) To play: North Melbourne at UTAS Stadium, Saturday 4:35 pmWin: Complete fourth if Geelong, Brisbane as well as Western Bulldogs all drop AND Carlton loses OR victories but crashes to overtake them on amount (approx. 4 targets) 5th if 3 take place, sixth if pair of take place, 7th if one takes place, 8th if none happenLose: Complete 7th if Fremantle drops as well as Carlton loses while keeping behind on amount, 8th if one drops, miss finals if both winAnalysis: Our team prefer to be the Hawks than the Bulldogs right now, because of that they've got delegated experience. Sam Mitchell's guys are actually a gain out of September, as well as just need to have to perform against an injury-hit Northern Melbourne that appeared horrible against claimed Dogs on Sunday. There is actually even a quite small chance they sneak into the best four even more realistically they'll gain on their own an MCG elimination last, either against the Dogs, Freo or Carlton. (The best-case instance is actually probably the Pets shedding, so the Hawks complete 6th as well as participate in the Blues.) If they are actually upset through North though, they're just like frightened as the Pet dogs, awaiting Carlton and Fremantle to see if they are actually tossed out of the eight.Fox Footy's prophecy: Gain and also end up 7th, 'away' to Western Bulldogs in an eradication finalMagic of Hok-ball described|03:418. CARLTON (13-9, 110.7%) To participate in: St Kilda at Marvel Arena, Sunday 3:20 pmWin: Complete 4th if Geelong, Brisbane, Western Bulldogs as well as Hawthorn all drop OR Hawks gain but fall behind Blues on percentage (approx. 4 targets), 5th if 3 take place, sixth if pair of take place, 7th if one occurs, 8th if none happenLose: Finish 7th if Hawthorn loses through good enough to fall back on portion AND Fremantle drops, 8th if one happens, typically skip finalsAnalysis: Crippa's home state actually helped them out this weekend break. Fremantle's loss, blended with the Blues' draw West Coast, views them inside the eight and also also able to play finals if they are actually outplayed through Street Kilda following full week. (Though they will be left praying for Slot to beat Freo.) Truthfully they are actually going to wish to beat the Saints to guarantee themselves a place in September - and also to provide on their own a possibility of an MCG elimination last. If both the Pet dogs and also Hawks lose, the Blues can even throw that last, though we would certainly be pretty surprised if the Hawks lost. Percentage is most likely to come right into play with the help of Carlton's massive sway West Shoreline - they might need to have to pump the Saints to avoid playing Brisbane in Brisbane.Fox Footy's prediction: Win and also finish 8th, away to Brisbane in a removal final9. FREMANTLE (12-9-1, 113.7%) To participate in: Slot Adelaide at Optus Coliseum, Sunday 6:10 pmWin: End up sixth if Western Bulldogs, Hawthorn and also Carlton lose, 7th if two lose, 8th if one loses, skip finals if each one of them winLose: Will definitely miss finalsAnalysis: Oh fantastic, an additional explanation to detest West Shoreline. Their competitors' inability to defeat the Blues' B-team means the Dockers are at real risk of their Round 24 activity ending up being a lifeless rubber. The equation is actually quite straightforward - they need a minimum of among the Dogs, Hawks or even Blues to drop prior to they participate in Slot. If that takes place, the Dockers can succeed their method into September. If all three gain, they'll be eliminated by the time they take the area. (Technically Freo may likewise capture Brisbane on percent but it is actually very unlikely.) Fox Footy's prediction: Drop and also overlook finals10. COLLINGWOOD (11-9-2, 100.1%) Collingwood can actually still play finals, but needs to have to make up an amount gap of 30+ targets to record Carlton, plus Fremantle must lose.
