    Our required winning margin will depend on St Kilda's score.

    This is what our winning margin needs to be to get to 130.6 percentage, based on what St Kilda scores

    30 44.0
    40 47.1
    50 50.2
    60 53.2
    70 56.3
    80 59.3
    90 62.4
    100 65.5

    So we need to win by 10 goals if St Kilda score 80. If St Kilda score 50, we *only* need to win by 8.2.

    If we repeat our last meeting with the Saints (83 -32) we’ll do it on our ear! 131%

    I figured it out a little differently, to make it easier to remember.
    We start out 35 points behind, and then we need to score 13 points for every 10 points the Saints score.

    These scores would get us ahead of Melbourne:
    0-35 (35 points)
    10-48 (38 points)
    20-61 (41 points)
    30-74 (44 points)
    40-87 (47 points)
    50-100 (50 points) These scores should be easy to remember.
    60-113 (53 points)
    70-126 (56 points)
    80-139 (59 points)
    90-152 (62 points)
    100-165 (65 points)

    Our number one priority is to secure the double chance, the home final is of less a concern since we are a team that plays as well away as at home (maybe better)

    I will sleep a lot better tomorrow night if GWS could somehow knock over Freo.

    Yeah, your figures are more exact than mine by a smidgeon, as I based it on needing 130.6 as an end result, when we only needed to get 130.5462 (same as Melbourne, and then we win on tiebreakers - goals kicked, and head to head record).

    My figures are the same as yours if you round off all my figures (e.g., treat the 62.4 as 62, treat 65.5 as 65 etc).

    Just to add more drama to our match!

    Our goal needs to be about 110-120. I doubt the Saints are scoring too much over 60 so that would get us within reach. If they reach 80 it’s over.

    End of the day a win is the most important.
    Doesn’t matter if we finish 2nd or 3rd , the premiership will be won at the MCG so a finals win there won’t hurt us one bit

    Spot on. Win first, margin is of secondary importance.

    No one will fear Brisbane after that dismal performance.

    Spot on. And they’ll be without Rayner, who’ll get at least one and possibly two weeks, and ‘if’ (and I understand it’s no more than a claim on big footy right now) what Zorko is alleged to have said is true, you can easily see Brisbane stripping him of the captaincy and/or the AFL punishing him.

    I agree. Will be happy to get the win and secure the double chance. Melbourne were awesome last night but we're pretty good, too, and have already beaten them this year at the MCG. They'll be justifiably concerned about playing us.

    I strongly doubt Rayner will be rubbed out. Quite different to the Kelly one where he got a week imo
