Round 20 and it's getting fair dinkum

[carey]

There just rolling along at the minute but finals are a total different game and anyone who thinks other wise are kidding them selves but I certainly wouldn't be discarding Sydney just yet.

Same as the dogs. I love watching them dont get me wrong but, Does that game hold up at the G in finals footy? I'm not sure.

[Spargo]

West Coast have touched up Sydney, now touched up Freo & really should've beaten Hawthorn. Nic Nat to come back and yet they are still being doubted to beat the Dogs & Crows let alone give the flag a shake? Give me a spell. This lot are the real deal - more resilience than any team in the comp.
Second spot is theirs if they want. WB in Perth this week, yes they're going well (at Etihad albeit) but get them on Subiaco and it may be a different story. The Crows the following week in Adelaide who still haven't beaten anyone of note yet.
The Eagles are in it up to their necks.

Beat North round 1 & Richmond last week - that's it.

You were right the 1st time

Bennymacca must be asleep I thought he'd be all over that comment!

Freo are not chance IMO in playing in the GF this year they have no forwards capable of really hurting good sides in the finals race PAv looks like he is struggling big time Walters is in and out of games to much the best one on one forward is prob fyfe and he is needed elsewhere.. I'm still not convinced on the eagles yet albeit they do play a attractive brand of footy..

Not sold? They are doing this without a backline. Hawks are the bench mark, but we are not far away.

Eagles are good but nowhere near the Hawks. Hawks havnt hit top gear yet, only foxing ATM.

Hawks had to lay over 100 tackles to beat WC. What's top gear for them then.

[carey]

In the wet tho. Always increased tackle count. I think your both right if that makes sence!

Hawks clear favorite for mine but West Coast aren't far off.

Can't argue with the truth!

Reckon we are about where we should be. About the same as Richmond north and Geelong

Hawks have the mindset of always winning. No fear of losing. Makes them the teams they are.

Who do you think should be favourite for the wooden spoon now?

How many points does the 3% equate to that brisbane are in front of carlton?

Crownbet have brisbane favourites, i would have thought carlton would have been a clear favourite.

I think they have Brisbane as favourites because they look to have a tougher draw on paper.
Lions have the Crows, Hawks and Dogs.
Carlton have Melbourne, GWS, Hawks
% differance is probably around 40 points. Can see Brisbane copping 2 maybe 3 absolute beltings, Carlton might only cop 2 hidings out of that lot.

not sure who will end up with the spoon, but just for reference with the percentage, crows and geelong were within 0.1% of each other before this round and are now 10% different, so 3% isnt much - maybe if one team wins by 5 goals and the other team loses by that amount it would easily account for that

Serious question, have the Eagles beaten anyone decent away from Perth?

Carlton were 2% up before the weekend and now 3.6% behind after losing by 64
