SYDNEY SWANS (16-6, 126.3%) To participate in: Adelaide Crows at the SCG, Saturday 7:40 pmWin or Lose: End Up 1stAnalysis: There are no practical circumstances where the Swans crash to gain the minor premiership. There are outlandish ones, though! A 100-point loss, while Port Adelaide defeats Fremantle by 100 factors, would certainly perform it.Fox Footy's prophecy: Gain as well as finish 1st, lot Geelong in a qualifying final2. SLOT ADELAIDE (15-7, 114.2%) To participate in: Fremantle at Optus Coliseum, Sunday 6:10 pmWin: Complete second if GWS loses OR wins as well as does not make up 7-8 objective percent void, 3rd if GWS victories and also composes 7-8 objective percent gapLose: End up second if GWS sheds (as well as Port may not be trumped by 7-8 objectives greater than the Giants), 3rd if GWS wins, fourth in very not likely situation Geelong gains and comprises substantial percentage gapAnalysis: The Energy will definitely have the advantage of recognizing their specific case heading in to their ultimate video game, though there is actually a very true odds they'll be actually more or less locked in to second. As well as in either case they're heading to be playing in the Second Qualifying Final. Their percentage lead on GWS is about 7-8 objectives, and on Geelong it's closer to 20, so they're possibly certainly not acquiring caught due to the Kitties. For that reason if the Giants gain, the Energy will certainly need to gain to secure second place - but just as long as they don't get surged through a despairing Dockers side, amount shouldn't be a trouble. (If they succeed through a number of goals, GWS would require to gain through 10 objectives to record all of them, and so on) Fox Footy's prediction: Succeed as well as end up 2nd, bunch GWS in a certifying final3. GWS GIANTS (15-7, 111.7%) To participate in: Western Bulldogs at Mars Arena, Sunday 12:30 pmWin: Complete 2nd if Port Adelaide drops OR wins yet gives up 7-8 objective lead on percent, 3rd if Slot Adelaide gains and also holds percentage leadLose: Finish second if Slot Adelaide is actually beaten by 7-8 objectives much more than they are actually, third if Slot Adelaide wins OR drops yet has percent top and also Geelong sheds OR wins as well as doesn't make up 10-goal amount space, fourth if Geelong wins and makes up 10-goal percent gapAnalysis: They're locked right into the top four, and are actually very likely playing in the second vs 3rd qualifying final, though Geelong absolutely knows exactly how to punish West Coast at GMHBA Coliseum. That is actually the only technique the Giants would drop out of participating in Port Adelaide a substantial gain due to the Kitties on Saturday (our team are actually speaking 10+ targets) and then a Giants loss to the Bulldogs on Sunday. If the Felines don't gain large (or gain at all), the Giants will be playing for throwing civil liberties to the Second Qualifying Final. They may either compose a 7-8 target gap in percentage to pass Slot Adelaide, or even merely really hope Freo defeats them.Fox Footy's forecast: Shed and end up 3rd, away to Slot Adelaide in a certifying finalZach Tuohy discusses decision to resign|00:534. GEELONG (14-8, 107.7%) To participate in: West Shoreline Eagles at GMHBA Stadium, Saturday 1:45 pmWin: Finish third if GWS loses and also surrenders 10-goal portion top, fourth if GWS gains OR loses yet keeps portion top (fringe case they can achieve second along with gigantic gain) Lose: Finish 4th if Brisbane, Western Bulldogs, Hawthorn and also Carlton lose, fifth if 3 shed, 6th if two drop, 7th if one sheds, 8th if they all winAnalysis: Well, they really turned that people up. From seeming like they were actually heading to develop percent as well as secure a top-four location, today the Pussy-cats require to win only to assure themselves the dual chance, with four staffs hoping they shed to West Coast so they can easily pinch fourth from all of them. On the bonus side, this is actually the best unequal matchup in modern footy, with the Eagles shedding nine direct excursions to Kardinia Playground by around 10+ goals. It is actually not impractical to think of the Pussy-cats succeeding through that scope, and also in mixture along with even a narrow GWS loss, they will be heading in to an away training final vs Slot Adelaide (for the third attend five seasons!). Or else a win must send them to the SCG. If the Pet cats in fact shed, they are going to probably be actually sent right into a removal last on our predictions, all the way up to 8th! Fox Footy's forecast: Win and also end up 4th, away to Sydney in a qualifying final5. BRISBANE LIONS (13-8-1, 121.6%) To play: Essendon at the Gabba, Sunday 7:30 pmWin: Finish 4th if Geelong loses, 5th if Geelong winsLose: Finish fifth if Western side Bulldogs lose as well as Hawthorn drop and also Carlton lose AND Fremantle shed OR win but go under to overcome big portion gap, sixth if 3 of those happen, 7th if two happen, 8th if one occurs, miss finals if none happenAnalysis: Not simply did they police an additional uncomfortable loss to the Pies, yet they obtained the incorrect team above them dropping! If the Lions were entering Shot 24 expecting Port or even GWS to lose, they would certainly still have a true shot at the best four, yet certainly Geelong does not drop in the home to West Shoreline? Provided that the Kitties finish the job, the Lions need to be tied for an eradication last. Defeating the Bombing planes would certainly then promise them 5th place (and also is actually the edge of the brace you yearn for, if it implies avoiding the Bulldogs as well as Hawks in full week one, as well as very likely obtaining Geelong in week 2). A shock loss to Essendon would observe Chris Fagan's edge nervously viewing on Sunday to view the amount of staffs pass them ... theoretically they might miss the eight totally, however it is actually quite outlandish for Fremantle to pass them.Fox Footy's forecast: Gain and also end up 5th, bunch Carlton in an elimination finalSelfish Lions caught rejecting teammates|01:046. WESTERN BULLDOGS (13-9, 123.8%) To play: GWS Giants at Mars Stadium, Sunday 12:30 pmWin: End up fourth if Geelong and Brisbane lose, fifth if one drops, 6th if both winLose: End up sixth if Hawthorn, Carlton and also Fremantle lose, 7th if pair of lose, 8th if one drops, skip finals if they all winAnalysis: Annoyingly for the Bulldogs, they may still miss out on the 8, despite possessing the AFL's second-best percent and thirteen triumphes (which nobody has ever before skipped the eight along with). In reality it's an extremely real option - they still require to function versus an in-form GWS to ensure their area in September. But that's not the only factor at concern the Pet dogs will ensure themselves a home final along with a victory (probably at the MCG vs Hawthorn), but regardless of whether they remain in the eight after shedding, they can be heading to Brisbane for that elimination final. At the other edge of the sphere, there's still a very small opportunity they can slip into the leading four, though it calls for West Coast to trump Geelong in Geelong, and also Essendon to beat Brisbane in Brisbane ... thereby a tiny chance. Fox Footy's prediction: Win and end up 6th, 'host' Hawthorn in an eradication final7. HAWTHORN (13-9, 111.8%) To participate in: North Melbourne at UTAS Stadium, Saturday 4:35 pmWin: Complete fourth if Geelong, Brisbane and also Western Bulldogs all lose and also Carlton drops OR wins however crashes to surpass all of them on amount (approx. 4 objectives) fifth if 3 occur, sixth if pair of occur, 7th if one occurs, 8th if none happenLose: End up 7th if Fremantle sheds AND Carlton drops while remaining overdue on amount, 8th if one loses, miss finals if each winAnalysis: Our experts prefer to be actually the Hawks than the Bulldogs at this moment, because of that they've got delegated to experience. Sam Mitchell's guys are a gain far from September, and also just need to take care of business versus an injury-hit N. Melbourne who appeared horrendous versus stated Pets on Sunday. There's also a really long shot they slip right into the best four additional realistically they'll gain themselves an MCG elimination final, either against the Canines, Freo or even Carlton. (The best-case circumstance is actually probably the Pet dogs shedding, so the Hawks end up sixth and participate in the Blues.) If they're upset by North though, they're just as frightened as the Dogs, expecting Carlton and Fremantle to view if they are actually evicted of the eight.Fox Footy's forecast: Win and finish 7th, 'away' to Western Bulldogs in a removal finalMagic of Hok-ball discussed|03:418. CARLTON (13-9, 110.7%) To participate in: Street Kilda at Wonder Stadium, Sunday 3:20 pmWin: Complete fourth if Geelong, Brisbane, Western Bulldogs and Hawthorn all shed OR Hawks gain yet fall back Woes on percentage (approx. 4 objectives), fifth if three happen, sixth if two occur, 7th if one occurs, 8th if none happenLose: Complete 7th if Hawthorn sheds through good enough to fall back on percent AND Fremantle drops, 8th if one takes place, or else miss finalsAnalysis: Crippa's home state truly helped all of them out this weekend. Fremantle's loss, incorporated with cry' sway West Coastline, sees them inside the eight and also even able to play finals if they're upset through Street Kilda following full week. (Though they will be left behind wishing Port to defeat Freo.) Reasonably they are actually going to want to beat the Saints to assure on their own a place in September - as well as to give on their own an opportunity of an MCG removal ultimate. If both the Pets and Hawks shed, the Blues might even throw that last, though our company will be actually pretty stunned if the Hawks lost. Amount is actually very likely ahead in to play with the help of Carlton's significant sway West Shore - they might need to have to pump the Saints to steer clear of playing Brisbane in Brisbane.Fox Footy's forecast: Win and end up 8th, away to Brisbane in an eradication final9. FREMANTLE (12-9-1, 113.7%) To play: Slot Adelaide at Optus Stadium, Sunday 6:10 pmWin: End up 6th if Western Side Bulldogs, Hawthorn as well as Carlton shed, 7th if 2 shed, 8th if one drops, miss finals if each one of all of them winLose: Will certainly skip finalsAnalysis: Oh terrific, yet another cause to despise West Coastline. Their opponents' lack of ability to beat cry' B-team means the Dockers are at real danger of their Around 24 video game ending up being a lifeless rubber. The equation is actually quite easy - they need to have at least among the Dogs, Hawks or Woes to shed prior to they play Slot. If that happens, the Dockers can win their means into September. If all three win, they'll be gotten rid of due to the opportunity they get the field. (Technically Freo can easily additionally capture Brisbane on portion yet it's extremely unlikely.) Fox Footy's prophecy: Drop and miss out on finals10. COLLINGWOOD (11-9-2, 100.1%) Collingwood can technically still play finals, yet needs to have to compose a portion void of 30+ targets to record Carlton, plus Fremantle must lose.
