Our best bet is to win our next 4 and catch up the %. Finish 2nd.

And hope Bris and west coast don’t seriously smash any teams.
Today’s result guarantees if we don’t make top 4 we will get home final

To finish 2nd

Defeat Carlton by 30 points
Defeat WCE by 30 points
& beat Bris by 30 points

And WCE & Bris don’t win any games by more than 20 points.

Run home

1. Geel v North Bris*. Carl
2. WCE v Adel. Rich* haw
3. Bris v Suns Geel Rich*
4. Rich v Carl WCE Bris

* = Away

If we win our 3 games and Bris d Geel at the Gabba then the top 4 are = on 16 wins.
% will decide the order.

ps: Carlton have a really brutal final month.

Our % worse than all of top 6 with little chance of jumping anyone % wise given the run home, I expect Collingwood and GWS to win remaining three and us to drop one and finish 6th.

I reckon Adelaide and the Bummers are big chances to beat the Chokers.

If omens are real, then the flag's in the bag:


If you like omens and you’re a Richmond fan, you’re in luck.
The Tigers continue to roll towards the finals with many suggesting they should be the favourites to claim the flag, just as they did in 2017.

The funny thing is, they’re almost exactly where they were this time two years ago.

Heading into Round 20 in 2017, the Tigers sat fourth on the ladder with a 12-6 win-loss record. They had scored 1556 points and allowed 1408.

Heading into Round 20 in 2019, the Tigers sat fourth on the ladder with a 12-6 win-loss record. They had scored 1556 points and allowed 1422.

In Round 20, 2017, they played a team that was about to very disappointingly miss the finals (Hawthorn) at the MCG, and won scoring 93 points.

In Round 20, 2019, they played a team that was about to very disappointingly miss the finals (Melbourne) at the MCG, and won scoring 93 points.

So after Round 20, 2017, they sat with a 13-6 record, having scored 1649 points and allowed 1472.

And after Round 20, 2019, they sit with a 13-6 record, having scored 1649 points and allowed 1482.

that leaves GWS still winning all three and us finishing 5th under the scenario of us losing 1 which is more likely than not IMO.

Lucky 1 and 2 point wins by GWS the last 2 weeks was a bummer!

We're not going to lose one. If so, as MD Jazz said, we don't deserve top 4.

Brisbane haven't felt the G since R4 when they got done by the Bummers. Another chance to spank a copycat...

We are beating sides at the G, even those who are cotenants.

Can't see why we shouldn't win all the remaining games at the G. West Coast will be the toughest IMO
