AFL Final 8...

[TazaD]

Sorry robby...I saw you said something about the final 8 last week, but just never got around to it.... Predicted Ladder # Team Pl W L D PF PA Pt Perc 1 Adelaide 22 20 2 0 2328 1760 80 132.2 3 Collingwood 22 17 5 0 2412 2054 68 117.4 2 West Coast 22 16 6 0 2210 2021 64 109.3 5 Melbourne 22 16 6 0 2234 2048 64 109.0 6 Sydney 22 14 8 0 2207 1979 56 111.5 4 W Bulldogs 22 14 8 0 2360 2172 56 108.6 8 Port Adel 22 13 9 0 2195 2222 52 98.7 13 Bris Lions 22 11 11 0 2107 2190 44 96.2 7 St Kilda 22 10 12 0 2041 1997 40 102.2 11 Geelong 22 9 13 0 2121 2067 36 102.6 9 Fremantle 22 9 13 0 1980 2146 36 92.2 12 Hawthorn 22 9 13 0 1975 2193 36 90.0 10 Richmond 22 8 14 0 1982 2278 32 87.0 15 Carlton 22 5 17 0 1951 2274 20 85.7 14 Kangaroos 22 4 18 0 1960 2250 16 87.1 16 Essendon 22 1 21 0 1987 2399 4 82.8 That's without picking the margins...getting games right is hard enough! Obviously interesting that I've got Collingwood to finish 2nd ahead of WC...St. Kilda and Geelong missing out (I gave us the win v. Geelong)...and Essendon not winning another game! I think it's fair to say that Feo really have little chance...but Port and even Brisbane are huge smokies imo. Some easy (and a lot of home) games to come. :ok

Re: AFL Final 8... Big price about Brisbane over the break, which although I predicted eleventh for them, I still felt was a bit of overs at 4.50. The Brown situation obviously changes things right now. Pretty much had the same ladder Taza, only cats and Saints in and Port and Bris out and Rich with a bit better sniff. I did take some 2.20 during break about Melb for the four. Surely it's five teams for four spots (doubt dogs have enough to give - sixth for them) or more realistically three for four spots (Adel stand out). I rated Melb a 1.57 chance, wish I had a bit more on it come to think of it. Been specking the Cats (top-8) last few weeks also.
