All times AEST.Adams to potentially skip another GF?|03:011. SYDNEY SWANS (16-6, 126.3%) To participate in: Adelaide Crows at the SCG, Sunday 7:40 pmWin or Lose: Complete 1stAnalysis: There are no sensible cases where the Swans lose big to win the slight premiership. There are outlandish ones, though! A 100-point loss, while Slot Adelaide beats Fremantle by 100 points, would certainly do it.Fox Footy's forecast: Win and also complete first, multitude Geelong in a training final2. SLOT ADELAIDE (15-7, 114.2%) To participate in: Fremantle at Optus Stadium, Sunday 6:10 pmWin: End up second if GWS drops OR victories and does not compose 7-8 target portion void, 3rd if GWS success and makes up 7-8 goal amount gapLose: End up 2nd if GWS loses (and Port may not be trumped through 7-8 targets greater than the Giants), third if GWS wins, 4th in quite unexpected circumstance Geelong succeeds and also composes substantial percentage gapAnalysis: The Electrical power is going to have the benefit of recognizing their exact instance heading into their ultimate video game, though there's a really genuine opportunity they'll be pretty much latched in to 2nd. As well as in any case they are actually mosting likely to be playing in the Second Qualifying Final. Their percent lead on GWS is approximately 7-8 goals, and on Geelong it's closer to twenty, so they are actually most likely not acquiring caught by the Pussy-cats. For that reason if the Giants gain, the Power is going to require to gain to lock up 2nd location - however so long as they do not obtain surged through a despairing Dockers side, amount shouldn't be a problem. (If they win through a number of goals, GWS will require to gain by 10 targets to catch them, etc) Fox Footy's prophecy: Succeed and also finish 2nd, multitude GWS in a certifying final3. GWS GIANTS (15-7, 111.7%) To play: Western Bulldogs at Mars Stadium, Sunday 12:30 pmWin: End up 2nd if Port Adelaide drops OR success yet surrenders 7-8 goal lead on percent, 3rd if Slot Adelaide wins as well as has portion leadLose: Finish 2nd if Port Adelaide is actually beaten by 7-8 targets more than they are, third if Port Adelaide wins OR sheds however has percentage lead as well as Geelong sheds OR wins and also doesn't make up 10-goal amount space, fourth if Geelong triumphes and makes up 10-goal portion gapAnalysis: They are actually latched in to the top 4, as well as are actually probably having fun in the 2nd vs 3rd training ultimate, though Geelong surely recognizes how to whip West Coastline at GMHBA Arena. That's the only way the Giants would quit of participating in Port Adelaide a substantial win by the Pussy-cats on Saturday (we're chatting 10+ objectives) and after that a Giants loss to the Bulldogs on Sunday. If the Felines don't gain major (or win whatsoever), the Giants will definitely be actually betting holding civil rights to the 2nd Qualifying Final. They may either compose a 7-8 goal space in amount to pass Slot Adelaide, or only wish Freo trumps them.Fox Footy's prophecy: Lose and also complete 3rd, away to Port Adelaide in a certifying finalZach Tuohy details decision to retire|00:534. GEELONG (14-8, 107.7%) To play: West Shore Eagles at GMHBA Stadium, Sunday 1:45 pmWin: Finish third if GWS drops and also gives up 10-goal portion lead, fourth if GWS wins OR sheds however holds onto amount lead (edge scenario they can reach 2nd with enormous win) Lose: Finish 4th if Brisbane, Western Bulldogs, Hawthorn and also Carlton drop, 5th if 3 lose, 6th if pair of drop, 7th if one loses, 8th if they all winAnalysis: Well, they definitely screwed that one up. Coming from appearing like they were actually mosting likely to develop percent and also lock up a top-four place, right now the Cats need to have to gain merely to promise themselves the double odds, with 4 teams hoping they shed to West Shore so they may squeeze fourth from them. On the bonus side, this is actually the best unbalanced competition in contemporary footy, with the Eagles shedding nine straight journeys to Kardinia Playground by an average of 10+ objectives. It's not unrealistic to picture the Kitties gaining through that scope, and in blend along with even a slim GWS loss, they 'd be actually heading right into an away qualifying final vs Port Adelaide (for the 3rd attend five seasons!). Or else a gain should send them to the SCG. If the Felines really lose, they are going to likely be actually sent in to a removal ultimate on our prophecies, right to 8th! Fox Footy's forecast: Gain and also complete 4th, away to Sydney in a training final5. BRISBANE COUGARS (13-8-1, 121.6%) To participate in: Essendon at the Gabba, Sunday 7:30 pmWin: Finish fourth if Geelong loses, 5th if Geelong winsLose: End up fifth if Western side Bulldogs drop as well as Hawthorn shed and also Carlton drop AND Fremantle drop OR win however go under to conquer huge percentage gap, sixth if 3 of those happen, 7th if pair of take place, 8th if one happens, miss finals if none happenAnalysis: Certainly not only performed they police officer another unpleasant loss to the Pies, but they acquired the inappropriate group above all of them losing! If the Lions were actually going into Shot 24 expecting Port or even GWS to shed, they will still have a genuine chance at the leading four, yet definitely Geelong does not lose in the house to West Coast? So long as the Kitties get the job done, the Lions need to be tied for an eradication ultimate. Defeating the Bombers would certainly at that point guarantee all of them 5th place (and also's the edge of the bracket you desire, if it suggests staying clear of the Bulldogs as well as Hawks in week one, as well as most likely receiving Geelong in week 2). A surprise reduction to Essendon will find Chris Fagan's side nervously enjoying on Sunday to view the amount of staffs pass them ... actually they can overlook the 8 completely, yet it is actually quite outlandish for Fremantle to pass them.Fox Footy's forecast: Gain as well as end up 5th, lot Carlton in an elimination finalSelfish Cougars captured rejecting teammates|01:046. WESTERN SIDE BULLDOGS (13-9, 123.8%) To participate in: GWS Giants at Mars Arena, Sunday 12:30 pmWin: Finish fourth if Geelong as well as Brisbane drop, fifth if one drops, 6th if each winLose: End up sixth if Hawthorn, Carlton and Fremantle drop, 7th if two shed, 8th if one drops, skip finals if they all winAnalysis: Irritatingly for the Bulldogs, they can still miss out on the 8, regardless of having the AFL's second-best percentage as well as 13 triumphes (which no one has ever before skipped the eight along with). In fact it is actually a very true option - they still require to perform versus an in-form GWS to guarantee their place in September. However that's not the only factor at risk the Canines would certainly assure on their own a home last with a victory (probably at the MCG vs Hawthorn), however even though they remain in the eight after shedding, they could be moving to Brisbane for that eradication final. At the other end of the range, there is actually still a tiny opportunity they can easily creep in to the top four, though it calls for West Shore to defeat Geelong in Geelong, and Essendon to defeat Brisbane in Brisbane ... thus a very small possibility. Fox Footy's prediction: Win as well as complete sixth, 'host' Hawthorn in an elimination final7. HAWTHORN (13-9, 111.8%) To play: North Melbourne at UTAS Stadium, Saturday 4:35 pmWin: Finish 4th if Geelong, Brisbane and Western Bulldogs all shed AND Carlton drops OR triumphes yet crashes to eclipse all of them on amount (approx. 4 objectives) 5th if 3 occur, sixth if pair of occur, 7th if one happens, 8th if none happenLose: Complete 7th if Fremantle loses AND Carlton loses while remaining behind on portion, 8th if one loses, miss out on finals if each winAnalysis: Our experts would rather be the Hawks than the Bulldogs at the moment, due to that they have actually acquired delegated deal with. Sam Mitchell's men are a succeed out of September, and only require to perform versus an injury-hit Northern Melbourne who looked awful versus claimed Pet dogs on Sunday. There's also a quite small chance they sneak into the top four more genuinely they'll gain on their own an MCG removal last, either versus the Pet dogs, Freo or Carlton. (The best-case case is actually possibly the Dogs losing, so the Hawks complete 6th as well as play the Blues.) If they're upset by North though, they're just as intimidated as the Pet dogs, waiting on Carlton as well as Fremantle to observe if they are actually evicted of the eight.Fox Footy's forecast: Gain and also finish 7th, 'away' to Western Bulldogs in a removal finalMagic of Hok-ball explained|03:418. CARLTON (13-9, 110.7%) To participate in: St Kilda at Wonder Coliseum, Sunday 3:20 pmWin: Finish fourth if Geelong, Brisbane, Western Bulldogs and Hawthorn all shed OR Hawks win but fall back Woes on percentage (approx. 4 objectives), fifth if 3 take place, sixth if 2 take place, 7th if one happens, 8th if none happenLose: Complete 7th if Hawthorn sheds through enough to fall back on portion and also Fremantle drops, 8th if one takes place, typically skip finalsAnalysis: Crippa's home condition definitely aided them out this weekend. Fremantle's loss, mixed with cry' sway West Coastline, views all of them inside the eight and also capable to participate in finals if they are actually outplayed by St Kilda upcoming full week. (Though they would certainly be actually left behind wishing Port to beat Freo.) Reasonably they're heading to would like to defeat the Saints to promise themselves an area in September - and to provide on their own an odds of an MCG eradication last. If both the Pets and also Hawks lose, the Blues might even throw that final, though our experts will be actually quite surprised if the Hawks shed. Percent is most likely ahead into play because of Carlton's significant gain West Coast - they might require to pump the Saints to avoid playing Brisbane in Brisbane.Fox Footy's prediction: Gain as well as finish 8th, away to Brisbane in an elimination final9. FREMANTLE (12-9-1, 113.7%) To participate in: Slot Adelaide at Optus Arena, Sunday 6:10 pmWin: Finish sixth if Western Bulldogs, Hawthorn as well as Carlton lose, 7th if pair of shed, 8th if one drops, skip finals if each of all of them winLose: Will definitely miss out on finalsAnalysis: Oh excellent, yet another cause to detest West Coast. Their competitors' incapacity to defeat the Blues' B-team suggests the Dockers go to true danger of their Around 24 video game becoming a dead rubber. The formula is actually rather straightforward - they need to have at least one of the Dogs, Hawks or Blues to drop before they participate in Port. If that happens, the Dockers can gain their way in to September. If all three win, they'll be eliminated by the opportunity they get the industry. (Technically Freo can likewise catch Brisbane on amount yet it's remarkably improbable.) Fox Footy's forecast: Drop and skip finals10. COLLINGWOOD (11-9-2, 100.1%) Collingwood can theoretically still play finals, yet needs to have to compose a percentage space of 30+ goals to capture Carlton, plus Fremantle needs to drop.
