Not only that, but Adelaide now have better percentage than us. There was a thing in the the age about it today. Basically, we need saints to lose, adelaide to lose by at least 15, and us to win by atleast 15...Personally, i think it'll be Adelaide myself, they should beat Collingwood easily.

Yeah, points sorry. The percentage difference is something like .7 or there abouts.

Wouldn't want to face your mob first week tbh.
If we finish 5th, my order of preference would be - Swans, Saints, Crows.

My first choice would definitely be Hawthorn, so hopefully the Swans get up and Hawthorn end up 5th. Adelaide just match up really well against them IMO, and I'd be surprised if we lost. Then again we lost to Melbourne this year, so who knows.
Last choice would be Collingwood probably, bit nervous about this week as it is.

Thought there was a decent suggestion of Footy Classified last night, about "flipping" the result of the Carlton-Melbourne game so that the winner gets the better draft options. Its too radical/sensible for the AFL to do it, because Demetriou just won't admit the current system leads to tanking, but at least it would mean both teams want to win rather than lose.
also, how good was it to see Archer, West and Buckley lay into Caroline Wilson, Hutchins and the fat bloke. Footy investigative journos are mostly scummy muckrakers these days - the proportion of media stuff that is actually about the onfield game is pathetic. If they want to be absorbed by the dramas of the personalities meshing, the latest intrigue, and finding out about people's "real personalities" they should watch Big Brother rather than AFL.
