Perpetuity AEST.Adams to potentially miss another GF?|03:011. SYDNEY SWANS (16-6, 126.3%) To participate in: Adelaide Crows at the SCG, Sunday 7:40 pmWin or even Miss: Complete 1stAnalysis: There are no practical scenarios where the Swans go belly up to win the slight premiership. There are unlikely ones, though! A 100-point reduction, while Port Adelaide trumps Fremantle through one hundred aspects, would do it.Fox Footy's prophecy: Win and finish 1st, multitude Geelong in a certifying final2. PORT ADELAIDE (15-7, 114.2%) To participate in: Fremantle at Optus Stadium, Sunday 6:10 pmWin: Finish second if GWS sheds OR wins and also does not make up 7-8 objective portion void, 3rd if GWS success and composes 7-8 goal amount gapLose: Complete 2nd if GWS loses (as well as Slot may not be beaten through 7-8 objectives much more than the Giants), 3rd if GWS wins, 4th in very unexpected scenario Geelong gains as well as makes up huge percentage gapAnalysis: The Electrical power will definitely have the perk of understanding their exact situation moving into their final game, though there is actually a quite genuine chance they'll be actually practically latched into 2nd. And also in any case they are actually mosting likely to be playing in the 2nd Qualifying Final. Their percentage lead on GWS is about 7-8 objectives, as well as on Geelong it is actually closer to twenty, so they're most likely certainly not acquiring caught by the Pet cats. For that reason if the Giants win, the Energy will definitely need to gain to lock up second location - but so long as they do not get whipped through a determined Dockers side, portion shouldn't be actually a complication. (If they win by a number of goals, GWS would need to have to succeed by 10 targets to capture them, and so on) Fox Footy's prediction: Gain as well as finish 2nd, lot GWS in a qualifying final3. GWS GIANTS (15-7, 111.7%) To play: Western Bulldogs at Mars Coliseum, Sunday 12:30 pmWin: Finish 2nd if Slot Adelaide sheds OR wins yet quits 7-8 target lead on percentage, 3rd if Slot Adelaide wins as well as has portion leadLose: Complete 2nd if Slot Adelaide is defeated through 7-8 targets greater than they are, third if Slot Adelaide wins OR loses yet keeps portion lead AND Geelong drops OR triumphes as well as does not comprise 10-goal percent void, 4th if Geelong victories as well as makes up 10-goal portion gapAnalysis: They're locked into the leading four, and are actually most likely having fun in the 2nd vs third training final, though Geelong absolutely knows how to thrash West Shore at GMHBA Stadium. That's the only way the Giants will leave of participating in Slot Adelaide a substantial gain due to the Felines on Saturday (our company're talking 10+ objectives) and then a Giants loss to the Bulldogs on Sunday. If the Pet cats don't win huge (or even gain at all), the Giants will definitely be betting hosting civil rights to the Second Qualifying Final. They can either comprise a 7-8 objective void in portion to pass Port Adelaide, or simply hope Freo trumps them.Fox Footy's forecast: Shed and end up 3rd, away to Slot Adelaide in a training finalZach Tuohy describes selection to resign|00:534. GEELONG (14-8, 107.7%) To participate in: West Coastline Eagles at GMHBA Coliseum, Saturday 1:45 pmWin: End up 3rd if GWS loses as well as surrenders 10-goal percentage top, 4th if GWS wins OR sheds yet holds onto percentage lead (fringe case they may achieve 2nd with large gain) Lose: Finish 4th if Brisbane, Western Bulldogs, Hawthorn as well as Carlton shed, 5th if 3 lose, 6th if two shed, 7th if one sheds, 8th if they all winAnalysis: Well, they really tightened that up. Coming from resembling they were heading to construct amount and also secure a top-four location, today the Felines require to succeed simply to promise themselves the double possibility, with 4 teams wishing they drop to West Shoreline so they can easily squeeze fourth coming from all of them. On the plus side, this is actually the most uneven matchup in present day footy, along with the Eagles losing nine straight excursions to Kardinia Park by an average of 10+ goals. It is actually certainly not impractical to picture the Pussy-cats succeeding through that scope, and also in mix along with also a slim GWS reduction, they would certainly be actually moving right into an away certifying last vs Port Adelaide (for the third time in five times!). Otherwise a succeed should deliver all of them to the SCG. If the Kitties actually lose, they will definitely possibly be actually sent into an eradication ultimate on our predictions, right down to 8th! Fox Footy's prophecy: Win and end up fourth, away to Sydney in a qualifying final5. BRISBANE LIONS (13-8-1, 121.6%) To participate in: Essendon at the Gabba, Saturday 7:30 pmWin: Complete 4th if Geelong loses, 5th if Geelong winsLose: End up 5th if Western Bulldogs shed and also Hawthorn shed as well as Carlton drop as well as Fremantle lose OR win however go belly up to get rid of very large portion space, 6th if three of those happen, 7th if pair of occur, 8th if one occurs, miss out on finals if none happenAnalysis: Not simply did they cop yet another painful loss to the Pies, however they got the wrong staff over all of them losing! If the Lions were actually going into Round 24 hoping for Port or even GWS to shed, they 'd still possess an actual shot at the best 4, yet absolutely Geelong does not lose in your home to West Coastline? Provided that the Cats do the job, the Cougars should be actually bound for an eradication final. Beating the Bombers would certainly at that point assure them fifth location (and also is actually the side of the brace you wish, if it indicates staying away from the Bulldogs as well as Hawks in full week one, and also likely getting Geelong in week two). A surprise loss to Essendon would find Chris Fagan's edge nervously seeing on Sunday to find how many teams pass all of them ... theoretically they could skip the eight totally, yet it is actually extremely impractical for Fremantle to pass them.Fox Footy's prophecy: Succeed as well as finish 5th, multitude Carlton in a removal finalSelfish Lions recorded keeping away from teammates|01:046. WESTERN BULLDOGS (13-9, 123.8%) To participate in: GWS Giants at Mars Arena, Sunday 12:30 pmWin: Complete fourth if Geelong as well as Brisbane lose, 5th if one sheds, 6th if both winLose: Complete 6th if Hawthorn, Carlton and Fremantle drop, 7th if 2 lose, 8th if one drops, miss out on finals if they all winAnalysis: Irritatingly for the Bulldogs, they can easily still skip the 8, in spite of having the AFL's second-best percentage and thirteen victories (which no person has ever before skipped the 8 with). In reality it is actually an extremely genuine opportunity - they still require to take care of business against an in-form GWS to promise their place in September. But that is actually not the only trait at risk the Dogs will guarantee themselves a home last along with a triumph (probably at the MCG vs Hawthorn), but even when they stay in the eight after dropping, they might be heading to Brisbane for that removal last. At the various other end of the sphere, there's still a little chance they may creep in to the leading four, though it needs West Shoreline to trump Geelong in Geelong, and also Essendon to trump Brisbane in Brisbane ... hence a small chance. Fox Footy's prediction: Win and also end up sixth, 'range' Hawthorn in an eradication final7. HAWTHORN (13-9, 111.8%) To participate in: North Melbourne at UTAS Stadium, Sunday 4:35 pmWin: Complete 4th if Geelong, Brisbane as well as Western Bulldogs all lose AND Carlton loses OR success however goes belly up to surpass all of them on percentage (approx. 4 targets) 5th if 3 happen, sixth if two occur, 7th if one happens, 8th if none happenLose: Finish 7th if Fremantle drops and also Carlton drops while keeping overdue on portion, 8th if one loses, overlook finals if both winAnalysis: Our team would rather be the Hawks than the Bulldogs immediately, because of that they have actually got delegated encounter. Sam Mitchell's males are actually a gain off of September, as well as only need to take care of business versus an injury-hit North Melbourne that appeared horrendous versus claimed Canines on Sunday. There's even an incredibly long shot they slip into the leading four additional truthfully they'll gain on their own an MCG eradication ultimate, either against the Pet dogs, Freo or Carlton. (The best-case circumstance is actually probably the Pets shedding, so the Hawks finish sixth as well as play the Blues.) If they're upset through North though, they're just as intimidated as the Pet dogs, expecting Carlton and Fremantle to see if they're evicted of the eight.Fox Footy's forecast: Gain and also end up 7th, 'away' to Western Bulldogs in an elimination finalMagic of Hok-ball revealed|03:418. CARLTON (13-9, 110.7%) To participate in: Street Kilda at Marvel Coliseum, Sunday 3:20 pmWin: End up fourth if Geelong, Brisbane, Western Bulldogs and Hawthorn all drop OR Hawks win but fall back Woes on percent (approx. 4 goals), fifth if three happen, sixth if pair of occur, 7th if one happens, 8th if none happenLose: End up 7th if Hawthorn loses through good enough to fall behind on percentage as well as Fremantle drops, 8th if one takes place, typically skip finalsAnalysis: Crippa's home condition actually assisted all of them out this weekend break. Fremantle's loss, combined along with cry' sway West Shore, views them inside the 8 and also capable to play finals if they are actually outplayed through St Kilda following full week. (Though they would certainly be left praying for Port to defeat Freo.) Reasonably they are actually heading to intend to trump the Saints to promise on their own a location in September - and to provide on their own a chance of an MCG removal last. If both the Pets as well as Hawks lose, cry could possibly even hold that last, though we 'd be actually pretty surprised if the Hawks lost. Percentage is most likely to find in to play thanks to Carlton's significant gain West Coast - they may require to pump the Saints to steer clear of participating in Brisbane in Brisbane.Fox Footy's forecast: Gain as well as 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 6th if Western Bulldogs, Hawthorn and also Carlton shed, 7th if 2 shed, 8th if one sheds, skip finals if each one of all of them winLose: Will miss out on finalsAnalysis: Oh excellent, yet another reason to loathe West Coast. Their opponents' failure to beat cry' B-team means the Dockers go to real threat of their Around 24 game becoming a dead rubber. The equation is actually pretty simple - they need at the very least some of the Pet dogs, Hawks or Woes to drop before they participate in Slot. If that happens, the Dockers can easily succeed their means right into September. If all three win, they'll be done away with by the time they get the field. (Technically Freo can easily likewise capture Brisbane on percent yet it's extremely unlikely.) Fox Footy's prophecy: Drop and miss out on finals10. COLLINGWOOD (11-9-2, 100.1%) Collingwood may technically still participate in finals, however needs to have to make up an amount void of 30+ targets to catch Carlton, plus Fremantle has to shed.
