Dogs Saints draw, could it have been a better result for us. Also Saints in pain and flat going into next week!

Draw! Sucks to be either team because that's as good as a loss for them. Somewhat good for us of course but we shouldn't really be looking at teams below us.
Swans now out of the eight

I was just thinking that a draw was bad for us in a way. Means BOTH Bulldogs and St Kilda are now ahead of us on the ladder, rather than simply one team.
Swannies for life!
Be careful of spoilers for people watching the replay later tonight.
Unbelievably if Brisbane win this weekend they will be in the 8

The other negative to consider is the fact that our great percentage is now irrelevent to 3 fellow finals aspirants in Brisbane, St Kilda and Bulldogs.
I am convincing myself more that this draw was NOT good for us at all.

It will depend on whether we win on Sunday. If we win, its good, if we lose, its bad.
A draw between Saints and Dogs....possibly a good result for Sydney...assuming we beat Melb????!!!!

Mods - spoiler. But yes, I reckon best possible result for Sydney so long as we beat Melb, which we will.
Yeah, it means the 'aints and dogs arent really in contention for a top 6 (home final) spot, so statistically its good for us in a small way.
