Perpetuity AEST.Adams to likely miss out on an additional GF?|03:011. SYDNEY SWANS (16-6, 126.3%) To participate in: Adelaide Crows at the SCG, Sunday 7:40 pmWin or even Miss: Finish 1stAnalysis: There are actually no realistic scenarios where the Swans crash to gain the small premiership. There are actually outlandish ones, though! A 100-point loss, while Port Adelaide defeats Fremantle by 100 points, would certainly perform it.Fox Footy's prediction: Gain and finish 1st, lot Geelong in a certifying final2. SLOT ADELAIDE (15-7, 114.2%) To play: Fremantle at Optus Coliseum, Sunday 6:10 pmWin: Finish second if GWS loses OR success and doesn't make up 7-8 target percent gap, 3rd if GWS wins and composes 7-8 target percent gapLose: End up second if GWS sheds (as well as Port aren't defeated through 7-8 targets greater than the Giants), third if GWS succeeds, 4th in quite unexpected situation Geelong wins as well as comprises massive percent gapAnalysis: The Energy will possess the perk of recognizing their precise circumstance moving into their last video game, though there's an extremely real opportunity they'll be actually pretty much latched right into 2nd. And also either way they are actually heading to be playing in the 2nd Qualifying Final. Their amount lead on GWS is actually about 7-8 objectives, and on Geelong it is actually closer to twenty, so they are actually most likely not obtaining captured due to the Kitties. As a result if the Giants gain, the Electrical power will certainly require to gain to lock up 2nd area - yet provided that they do not get whipped by a desperate Dockers edge, portion should not be a complication. (If they succeed by a number of goals, GWS would require to succeed through 10 objectives to capture them, and so on) Fox Footy's prophecy: Succeed as well as end up 2nd, multitude GWS in a training final3. GWS GIANTS (15-7, 111.7%) To participate in: Western Bulldogs at Mars Stadium, Sunday 12:30 pmWin: Finish second if Slot Adelaide loses OR wins yet quits 7-8 goal lead on percent, 3rd if Port Adelaide wins and also keeps percentage leadLose: End up second if Port Adelaide is actually trumped through 7-8 objectives much more than they are actually, third if Port Adelaide gains OR sheds but holds amount lead AND Geelong loses OR success and does not comprise 10-goal percent space, 4th if Geelong success and also comprises 10-goal portion gapAnalysis: They are actually latched into the top 4, and are actually very likely playing in the second vs third certifying last, though Geelong surely recognizes how to whip West Shore at GMHBA Coliseum. That is actually the only technique the Giants will drop out of participating in Port Adelaide an extensive win by the Cats on Sunday (our company're talking 10+ goals) and afterwards a Giants loss to the Bulldogs on Sunday. If the Felines don't win large (or even win in any way), the Giants will certainly be betting organizing civil liberties to the 2nd Qualifying Final. They can either make up a 7-8 objective void in percent to pass Port Adelaide, or even just wish Freo beats them.Fox Footy's forecast: Drop and complete 3rd, away to Port Adelaide in a certifying finalZach Tuohy reveals decision to resign|00:534. GEELONG (14-8, 107.7%) To play: West Shore Eagles at GMHBA Stadium, Saturday 1:45 pmWin: Finish third if GWS loses and also surrenders 10-goal portion top, fourth if GWS wins OR sheds yet keeps percentage top (fringe circumstance they can easily meet second along with substantial win) Lose: Finish fourth if Brisbane, Western Bulldogs, Hawthorn and also Carlton lose, 5th if three lose, 6th if two lose, 7th if one drops, 8th if they all winAnalysis: Well, they really turned that people up. Coming from seeming like they were mosting likely to develop percentage as well as secure a top-four area, now the Pussy-cats require to gain simply to guarantee themselves the double possibility, with four groups hoping they shed to West Coastline so they may pinch 4th coming from them. On the plus edge, this is actually the best lopsided matchup in contemporary footy, with the Eagles shedding nine straight excursions to Kardinia Park by approximately 10+ targets. It's certainly not unlikely to imagine the Kitties succeeding by that scope, and also in mix with also a slender GWS loss, they 'd be moving into an away training final vs Slot Adelaide (for the third time in 5 seasons!). Or else a gain need to deliver them to the SCG. If the Kitties in fact drop, they will almost certainly be sent out into an elimination final on our predictions, right up to 8th! Fox Footy's forecast: Gain and complete fourth, away to Sydney in a certifying final5. BRISBANE COUGARS (13-8-1, 121.6%) To participate in: Essendon at the Gabba, Sunday 7:30 pmWin: Finish 4th if Geelong sheds, fifth if Geelong winsLose: Finish fifth if Western Bulldogs drop and also Hawthorn lose as well as Carlton drop AND Fremantle lose OR gain but go belly up to get over huge percentage void, 6th if three of those take place, 7th if two happen, 8th if one takes place, overlook finals if none happenAnalysis: Certainly not simply did they cop another distressing reduction to the Pies, however they got the wrong crew over all of them losing! If the Lions were going into Shot 24 wishing for Port or GWS to lose, they will still possess a true chance at the leading four, yet certainly Geelong doesn't lose in the house to West Shore? Provided that the Pet cats get the job done, the Cougars should be tied for an elimination ultimate. Trumping the Bombing planes would certainly after that guarantee all of them 5th spot (and also's the edge of the bracket you desire, if it suggests staying clear of the Bulldogs and also Hawks in full week one, as well as most likely acquiring Geelong in full week 2). A surprise reduction to Essendon will find Chris Fagan's side nervously checking out on Sunday to see the number of crews pass all of them ... actually they could skip the 8 entirely, but it is really outlandish for Fremantle to pass them.Fox Footy's prophecy: Gain and also complete 5th, host Carlton in an eradication finalSelfish Lions caught steering clear of allies|01:046. WESTERN SIDE BULLDOGS (13-9, 123.8%) To play: GWS Giants at Mars Arena, Sunday 12:30 pmWin: End up 4th if Geelong and also Brisbane lose, 5th if one loses, sixth if both winLose: End up 6th if Hawthorn, Carlton and Fremantle shed, 7th if two drop, 8th if one drops, miss out on finals if they all winAnalysis: Irritatingly for the Bulldogs, they may still overlook the eight, in spite of possessing the AFL's second-best amount as well as 13 success (which no person has actually EVER missed the eight along with). In fact it's a very genuine option - they still require to function versus an in-form GWS to ensure their spot in September. Yet that's not the only factor at risk the Pet dogs would ensure on their own a home final along with a triumph (probably at the MCG vs Hawthorn), yet regardless of whether they keep in the 8 after losing, they may be moving to Brisbane for that removal last. At the various other edge of the spectrum, there is actually still a little chance they can easily creep in to the best 4, though it demands West Shore to defeat Geelong in Geelong, and Essendon to defeat Brisbane in Brisbane ... thereby a very small possibility. Fox Footy's prophecy: Win and also finish 6th, 'host' Hawthorn in an elimination final7. HAWTHORN (13-9, 111.8%) To play: North Melbourne at UTAS Coliseum, Sunday 4:35 pmWin: Finish fourth if Geelong, Brisbane and Western Bulldogs all lose AND Carlton loses OR wins but goes bust to eclipse all of them on amount (approx. 4 targets) fifth if three occur, 6th if pair of happen, 7th if one occurs, 8th if none happenLose: Finish 7th if Fremantle loses and also Carlton loses while keeping overdue on portion, 8th if one sheds, skip finals if both winAnalysis: We prefer to be the Hawks than the Bulldogs immediately, due to who they have actually obtained delegated face. Sam Mitchell's guys are actually a win off of September, as well as merely need to perform against an injury-hit N. Melbourne who looked horrendous versus stated Pets on Sunday. There's even an extremely small chance they slip into the leading 4 more genuinely they'll earn on their own an MCG elimination final, either versus the Pets, Freo or Carlton. (The best-case case is actually perhaps the Pet dogs shedding, so the Hawks complete sixth and play cry.) If they are actually outplayed through North though, they are actually just as scared as the Canines, waiting on Carlton and also Fremantle to find if they are actually tossed out of the eight.Fox Footy's prediction: Win and complete 7th, 'away' to Western Bulldogs in a removal finalMagic of Hok-ball explained|03:418. CARLTON (13-9, 110.7%) To play: St Kilda at Marvel Arena, Sunday 3:20 pmWin: Complete fourth if Geelong, Brisbane, Western Bulldogs and also Hawthorn all drop OR Hawks gain yet fall back Woes on percentage (approx. 4 objectives), fifth if three happen, sixth if two take place, 7th if one takes place, 8th if none happenLose: Finish 7th if Hawthorn sheds by sufficient to fall back on amount AND Fremantle sheds, 8th if one occurs, otherwise miss finalsAnalysis: Crippa's home condition truly assisted all of them out this weekend break. Fremantle's loss, combined along with cry' win over West Shoreline, views them inside the 8 and even able to participate in finals if they are actually upset through Street Kilda next full week. (Though they would certainly be left behind praying for Slot to beat Freo.) Realistically they're mosting likely to wish to trump the Saints to assure on their own a place in September - and to give themselves a chance of an MCG eradication last. If both the Pets and also Hawks drop, the Blues could even throw that last, though our company will be actually fairly shocked if the Hawks lost. Percentage is actually likely to find in to play because of Carlton's significant gain West Shore - they might need to have to push the Saints to steer clear of playing Brisbane in Brisbane.Fox Footy's prediction: Win as well as complete 8th, away to Brisbane in a removal final9. FREMANTLE (12-9-1, 113.7%) To participate in: Slot Adelaide at Optus Stadium, Sunday 6:10 pmWin: Complete sixth if Western Bulldogs, Hawthorn and also Carlton lose, 7th if 2 lose, 8th if one loses, miss finals if each one of them winLose: Will certainly miss finalsAnalysis: Oh great, an additional main reason to dislike West Coastline. Their competitors' inability to beat the Blues' B-team implies the Dockers are at genuine risk of their Round 24 game becoming a dead rubber. The equation is quite basic - they need at the very least one of the Canines, Hawks or even Woes to lose prior to they participate in Port. If that happens, the Dockers can easily succeed their means into September. If all 3 succeed, they'll be actually dealt with by the opportunity they get the area. (Technically Freo can easily likewise capture Brisbane on amount however it's exceptionally unlikely.) Fox Footy's prophecy: Drop and overlook finals10. COLLINGWOOD (11-9-2, 100.1%) Collingwood may technically still participate in finals, but needs to comprise a portion space of 30+ targets to record Carlton, plus Fremantle needs to drop.
