    Should I just look at the scoreboard?
    I’d be looking at John Longmire

    You're wasted on here. You know that, right? There has to be a spot in the coach's box. Dean Cox, he never looks like he is
    doing anything. Take his chair. The coaches and the team need to hear this stuff.

    I'll see if I can implement that process.

    five games and open up the chance for a home final. And we've beaten three of the current top four on the ladder.
    I'm feeling increasingly bullish.
    There’s someone even more bullish than you and that’s Buddy, he’s playing like a 26 year old and helping everyone to play very hungry.

    Still too hard to call. If you run the scenario that the Swans win three and lose to the Pies, it's hard to stay in the top four. Requires a Freo loss (dogs next week is a challenge, but their run home is pretty good from there) AND one of either Dees or Pies to somehow lose two (and we would still need a percentage boost to take Dees) AND Lions to lose one of their remaining games (this one is a likely scenario).

    Simply put, we need to win everything from here. Pies in two weeks is the top four game no doubt.
    Captain, I am detecting large quantities of win in this sector

    Win three and lose to the Pies? I get your are God here but quit drinking or smoking the pipes, man. There’s three rounds to go.

    I did the ladder predictor with the simple method of picking the higher-ranked team in every round.

    If Sydney defeat Collingwood:
    GEEL 18 4 0 WWW
    MELB 17 5 0 WWW
    SYDN 16 6 0 WWW
    FREM 15 6 1 WWW
    BRIS 15 7 0 WWL
    COLL 15 7 0 LLW
    RICH 13 8 1 WWW
    W.B. 12 10 0 LWW

    CARL 12 10 0 LLL
    GCFC 11 11 0 WLW
    ST.K 11 11 0 LLL
    PORT 10 12 0 LWW
    ESS. 8 14 0 WLL
    ADEL 8 14 0 WWL
    HAW. 7 15 0 LLL
    GWS. 5 17 0 LLL
    WCE. 2 20 0 LLL
    NMFC 2 20 0 LLL

    If Collingwood win, 3rd to 6th would be Collingwood, Fremantle, Sydney, Brisbane.

    A very sensible approach.

    I've been playing with the Squiggle predictor. You get slightly different results each time if you use "autotip" and then reset before running again, but most runs put Sydney top 4. It's "beat Pies" really though isn't it...

    I think Pies v Dees will be very informative.
