All times AEST.Adams to likely miss out on yet another GF?|03:011. SYDNEY SWANS (16-6, 126.3%) To participate in: Adelaide Crows at the SCG, Saturday 7:40 pmWin or even Miss: Complete 1stAnalysis: There are no reasonable circumstances where the Swans lose big to win the slight premiership. There are actually outlandish ones, though! A 100-point reduction, while Slot Adelaide defeats Fremantle through one hundred factors, would perform it.Fox Footy's prophecy: Win and also complete 1st, bunch Geelong in a qualifying final2. PORT ADELAIDE (15-7, 114.2%) To play: Fremantle at Optus Stadium, Sunday 6:10 pmWin: Finish second if GWS drops OR success as well as does not comprise 7-8 goal amount gap, 3rd if GWS victories as well as comprises 7-8 target percent gapLose: End up second if GWS drops (and Port aren't trumped through 7-8 goals greater than the Giants), third if GWS gains, 4th in quite improbable scenario Geelong succeeds and composes enormous amount gapAnalysis: The Electrical power will possess the benefit of knowing their precise situation moving right into their final game, though there is actually a really real chance they'll be actually essentially latched in to second. And in either case they are actually going to be playing in the Second Qualifying Final. Their amount bait GWS is actually roughly 7-8 targets, as well as on Geelong it's closer to twenty, so they are actually most likely certainly not acquiring caught by the Felines. Therefore if the Giants win, the Electrical power will certainly require to gain to lock up 2nd location - yet provided that they do not get surged by a despairing Dockers side, amount should not be a trouble. (If they gain by a couple of objectives, GWS would certainly need to have to win through 10 goals to record them, etc) Fox Footy's forecast: Succeed and also end up second, host GWS in a certifying final3. GWS GIANTS (15-7, 111.7%) To play: Western Bulldogs at Mars Coliseum, Sunday 12:30 pmWin: End up 2nd if Port Adelaide loses OR success yet gives up 7-8 goal lead on portion, 3rd if Port Adelaide succeeds as well as holds amount leadLose: Complete second if Slot Adelaide is trumped through 7-8 objectives much more than they are actually, third if Port Adelaide wins OR loses yet keeps portion top as well as Geelong sheds OR success and also doesn't compose 10-goal percent space, fourth if Geelong wins as well as makes up 10-goal amount gapAnalysis: They are actually latched right into the best four, and also are very likely playing in the 2nd vs third training last, though Geelong absolutely knows exactly how to punish West Coast at GMHBA Stadium. That is actually the only method the Giants will quit of playing Slot Adelaide an extensive gain by the Pet cats on Sunday (our team are actually speaking 10+ objectives) and after that a Giants loss to the Bulldogs on Sunday. If the Pet cats don't gain large (or even gain in all), the Giants will definitely be betting organizing rights to the Second Qualifying Final. They may either compose a 7-8 objective gap in amount to pass Port Adelaide, or even merely wish Freo defeats them.Fox Footy's prophecy: Lose and also finish third, away to Slot Adelaide in a qualifying finalZach Tuohy discusses selection to resign|00:534. GEELONG (14-8, 107.7%) To participate in: West Shore Eagles at GMHBA Arena, Saturday 1:45 pmWin: Complete third if GWS sheds and also loses hope 10-goal amount top, fourth if GWS gains OR sheds but keeps percent lead (fringe case they can easily achieve 2nd with enormous win) Lose: End Up fourth if Brisbane, Western Bulldogs, Hawthorn and Carlton lose, fifth if three drop, 6th if two lose, 7th if one loses, 8th if they all winAnalysis: Well, they definitely turned that one up. From resembling they were visiting develop percent and also secure a top-four place, today the Cats need to have to gain simply to guarantee on their own the dual odds, along with 4 staffs hoping they shed to West Coastline so they may squeeze fourth coming from them. On the in addition side, this is one of the most lopsided match in modern-day footy, along with the Eagles shedding 9 straight trips to Kardinia Playground through around 10+ targets. It is actually not outlandish to think of the Cats succeeding through that frame, as well as in combination along with also a slender GWS loss, they would certainly be heading right into an away certifying final vs Slot Adelaide (for the third time in 5 periods!). Otherwise a succeed need to send them to the SCG. If the Kitties actually lose, they will easily be delivered in to an eradication last on our prophecies, all the way up to 8th! Fox Footy's forecast: Gain as well as complete fourth, away to Sydney in a training final5. BRISBANE COUGARS (13-8-1, 121.6%) To participate in: Essendon at the Gabba, Sunday 7:30 pmWin: Finish 4th if Geelong drops, 5th if Geelong winsLose: Complete fifth if Western side Bulldogs drop and also Hawthorn drop as well as Carlton drop AND Fremantle lose OR win however crash to conquer huge percentage space, sixth if three of those happen, 7th if two occur, 8th if one takes place, skip finals if none happenAnalysis: Not merely performed they cop one more distressing reduction to the Pies, however they received the wrong team over them dropping! If the Lions were actually going into Round 24 anticipating Port or GWS to drop, they will still have a genuine shot at the leading 4, but surely Geelong doesn't drop in the home to West Shore? As long as the Pussy-cats finish the job, the Lions should be tied for an elimination last. Beating the Bombing planes will after that ensure all of them 5th location (and also's the edge of the brace you really want, if it implies avoiding the Bulldogs as well as Hawks in full week one, as well as very likely getting Geelong in week 2). A surprise reduction to Essendon would certainly see Chris Fagan's edge nervously seeing on Sunday to view the amount of groups pass all of them ... actually they might miss out on the eight entirely, but it is actually incredibly impractical for Fremantle to pass them.Fox Footy's prediction: Win as well as complete 5th, bunch Carlton in a removal finalSelfish Lions caught rejecting teammates|01:046. WESTERN BULLDOGS (13-9, 123.8%) To participate in: GWS Giants at Mars Arena, Sunday 12:30 pmWin: End up fourth if Geelong as well as Brisbane drop, fifth if one drops, sixth if each winLose: Finish sixth if Hawthorn, Carlton as well as Fremantle drop, 7th if 2 drop, 8th if one drops, skip finals if they all winAnalysis: Annoyingly for the Bulldogs, they can easily still miss out on the 8, regardless of possessing the AFL's second-best amount and thirteen success (which no one has actually EVER missed the eight along with). In reality it's an extremely genuine opportunity - they still need to take care of business versus an in-form GWS to promise their area in September. However that's not the only factor at stake the Dogs would ensure themselves a home last along with a victory (probably at the MCG vs Hawthorn), however even though they stay in the 8 after dropping, they could be heading to Brisbane for that elimination ultimate. At the various other end of the range, there's still a small chance they can creep in to the top four, though it demands West Coast to beat Geelong in Geelong, and also Essendon to beat Brisbane in Brisbane ... thus a very small opportunity. Fox Footy's prophecy: Win and also end up sixth, 'host' Hawthorn in a removal final7. HAWTHORN (13-9, 111.8%) To participate in: North Melbourne at UTAS Coliseum, Saturday 4:35 pmWin: End up 4th if Geelong, Brisbane and Western Bulldogs all lose as well as Carlton loses OR success yet loses big to surpass all of them on amount (approx. 4 objectives) 5th if three occur, sixth if two happen, 7th if one happens, 8th if none happenLose: Finish 7th if Fremantle sheds and also Carlton sheds while staying overdue on amount, 8th if one drops, overlook finals if each winAnalysis: Our experts would rather be actually the Hawks than the Bulldogs today, as a result of that they have actually obtained delegated experience. Sam Mitchell's males are a win away from September, and also simply need to have to take care of business versus an injury-hit Northern Melbourne who looked awful against pointed out Dogs on Sunday. There's even a quite small chance they creep right into the leading 4 even more realistically they'll get on their own an MCG elimination last, either against the Pets, Freo or even Carlton. (The best-case case is perhaps the Dogs shedding, so the Hawks complete 6th and also play the Blues.) If they are actually upset by North though, they are actually equally as scared as the Canines, expecting Carlton and Fremantle to observe if they are actually rejected of the eight.Fox Footy's prediction: Win and finish 7th, 'away' to Western Bulldogs in an elimination finalMagic of Hok-ball described|03:418. CARLTON (13-9, 110.7%) To participate in: Street Kilda at Wonder Stadium, Sunday 3:20 pmWin: Finish 4th if Geelong, Brisbane, Western Bulldogs and Hawthorn all lose OR Hawks gain yet fall back Woes on percentage (approx. 4 goals), 5th if 3 take place, 6th if pair of occur, 7th if one happens, 8th if none happenLose: Complete 7th if Hawthorn sheds by enough to fall behind on percent AND Fremantle sheds, 8th if one occurs, typically miss finalsAnalysis: Crippa's home state actually helped them out this weekend break. Fremantle's loss, mixed along with the Blues' win over West Coast, views them inside the eight and even capable to play finals if they're outplayed through Street Kilda upcoming full week. (Though they will be left behind wishing Port to trump Freo.) Reasonably they're visiting wish to defeat the Saints to guarantee on their own a location in September - and also to give on their own an odds of an MCG eradication ultimate. If both the Canines and also Hawks drop, cry might even throw that final, though our company would certainly be actually pretty stunned if the Hawks lost. Percentage is most likely to follow into play thanks to Carlton's substantial draw West Coastline - they might require to push the Saints to steer clear of participating in Brisbane in Brisbane.Fox Footy's prediction: Gain and also end up 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: Complete sixth if Western Bulldogs, Hawthorn and also Carlton drop, 7th if pair of drop, 8th if one drops, miss finals if all of them winLose: Will certainly miss out on finalsAnalysis: Oh fantastic, an additional explanation to dislike West Shore. Their rivals' failure to beat cry' B-team means the Dockers are at real danger of their Around 24 activity ending up being a lifeless rubber. The equation is fairly simple - they require a minimum of among the Canines, Hawks or Blues to shed before they play Port. If that occurs, the Dockers can win their means in to September. If all 3 win, they'll be gotten rid of by the time they take the field. (Technically Freo can easily also record Brisbane on amount however it is actually extremely not likely.) Fox Footy's prophecy: Lose and skip finals10. COLLINGWOOD (11-9-2, 100.1%) Collingwood may theoretically still participate in finals, however needs to have to comprise a percent space of 30+ objectives to capture Carlton, plus Fremantle must lose.
