All times AEST.Adams to likely skip an additional GF?|03:011. SYDNEY SWANS (16-6, 126.3%) To play: Adelaide Crows at the SCG, Sunday 7:40 pmWin or even Lose: End Up 1stAnalysis: There are actually no sensible cases where the Swans go under to gain the minor premiership. There are unlikely ones, though! A 100-point loss, while Slot Adelaide trumps Fremantle through one hundred aspects, will carry out it.Fox Footy's prophecy: Gain as well as complete 1st, bunch Geelong in a training final2. SLOT ADELAIDE (15-7, 114.2%) To participate in: Fremantle at Optus Coliseum, Sunday 6:10 pmWin: End up 2nd if GWS drops OR triumphes as well as does not comprise 7-8 target percent void, 3rd if GWS wins as well as makes up 7-8 target portion gapLose: End up second if GWS loses (and Port aren't trumped by 7-8 targets more than the Giants), 3rd if GWS wins, fourth in really extremely unlikely instance Geelong succeeds and also composes huge percent gapAnalysis: The Energy will have the advantage of recognizing their precise case moving right into their final game, though there's a very true opportunity they'll be pretty much latched into 2nd. And also in any case they are actually visiting be actually playing in the Second Qualifying Final. Their percentage lead on GWS is actually around 7-8 objectives, as well as on Geelong it's closer to 20, so they're possibly certainly not obtaining caught by the Kitties. For that reason if the Giants succeed, the Electrical power will need to win to lock up second area - however so long as they don't get whipped through a desperate Dockers side, percent shouldn't be actually a trouble. (If they gain by a couple of objectives, GWS will require to gain through 10 goals to capture them, and so on) Fox Footy's prophecy: Win as well as complete 2nd, bunch GWS in a training final3. GWS GIANTS (15-7, 111.7%) To participate in: Western Bulldogs at Mars Stadium, Sunday 12:30 pmWin: Complete second if Slot Adelaide drops OR triumphes but gives up 7-8 goal bait portion, 3rd if Slot Adelaide wins and also keeps portion leadLose: Finish 2nd if Port Adelaide is actually defeated by 7-8 targets much more than they are actually, 3rd if Port Adelaide gains OR drops however keeps percent lead AND Geelong drops OR triumphes and does not comprise 10-goal amount void, 4th if Geelong victories and composes 10-goal portion gapAnalysis: They're latched into the best four, and also are likely having fun in the 2nd vs third training final, though Geelong definitely understands exactly how to punish West Coastline at GMHBA Coliseum. That is actually the only method the Giants will leave of playing Port Adelaide a huge gain by the Felines on Saturday (our experts are actually chatting 10+ goals) and afterwards a Giants loss to the Bulldogs on Sunday. If the Pussy-cats do not succeed big (or even succeed in all), the Giants will be playing for throwing civil rights to the Second Qualifying Final. They can either compose a 7-8 target void in amount to pass Slot Adelaide, or even only really hope Freo defeats them.Fox Footy's prophecy: Lose and complete 3rd, away to Slot Adelaide in a certifying finalZach Tuohy clarifies selection to retire|00:534. GEELONG (14-8, 107.7%) To participate in: West Coastline Eagles at GMHBA Coliseum, Saturday 1:45 pmWin: Complete third if GWS sheds as well as gives up 10-goal percent top, fourth if GWS gains OR drops but keeps percent lead (edge scenario they may meet 2nd with extensive gain) Lose: Complete 4th if Brisbane, Western Bulldogs, Hawthorn and Carlton lose, fifth if three drop, 6th if pair of lose, 7th if one drops, 8th if they all winAnalysis: Well, they truly screwed that people up. From seeming like they were actually visiting construct portion and lock up a top-four spot, right now the Kitties need to have to win simply to guarantee on their own the double possibility, with 4 teams hoping they lose to West Shore so they can easily pinch fourth from all of them. On the bonus edge, this is the best unequal competition in modern-day footy, with the Eagles losing nine straight journeys to Kardinia Playground through approximately 10+ goals. It is actually certainly not unrealistic to visualize the Pussy-cats succeeding by that margin, and in combo along with also a slender GWS reduction, they 'd be moving into an away qualifying last vs Port Adelaide (for the 3rd time in five seasons!). Or else a succeed must deliver them to the SCG. If the Kitties actually shed, they will probably be sent out in to an elimination final on our prophecies, right to 8th! Fox Footy's prophecy: Gain and also finish fourth, away to Sydney in a training final5. BRISBANE COUGARS (13-8-1, 121.6%) To play: Essendon at the Gabba, Saturday 7:30 pmWin: Finish fourth if Geelong sheds, fifth if Geelong winsLose: Finish 5th if Western Bulldogs shed and also Hawthorn shed AND Carlton drop as well as Fremantle shed OR gain but crash to eliminate large amount void, sixth if three of those occur, 7th if pair of take place, 8th if one occurs, miss finals if none happenAnalysis: Certainly not simply did they police officer an additional painful reduction to the Pies, however they obtained the wrong staff over them shedding! If the Lions were going into Round 24 hoping for Port or even GWS to shed, they would certainly still have a true chance at the best four, but absolutely Geelong does not drop at home to West Shore? As long as the Cats get the job done, the Cougars ought to be actually bound for a removal final. Defeating the Bombing planes will at that point ensure all of them fifth location (and also is actually the side of the bracket you desire, if it suggests avoiding the Bulldogs and Hawks in full week one, as well as most likely obtaining Geelong in week two). A shock loss to Essendon will find Chris Fagan's side nervously seeing on Sunday to see the number of crews pass all of them ... technically they might overlook the eight totally, yet it is extremely unlikely for Fremantle to pass them.Fox Footy's prophecy: Succeed and also complete 5th, bunch Carlton in a removal finalSelfish Cougars recorded shunning colleagues|01:046. WESTERN BULLDOGS (13-9, 123.8%) To participate in: GWS Giants at Mars Coliseum, Sunday 12:30 pmWin: Complete fourth if Geelong as well as Brisbane shed, fifth if one sheds, 6th if both winLose: Complete sixth if Hawthorn, Carlton as well as Fremantle shed, 7th if pair of drop, 8th if one drops, skip finals if they all winAnalysis: Annoyingly for the Bulldogs, they can easily still overlook the 8, regardless of having the AFL's second-best portion and also thirteen victories (which no person has ever before overlooked the 8 with). In reality it's an extremely actual opportunity - they still need to perform versus an in-form GWS to assure their location in September. But that's not the only point at concern the Pet dogs will promise on their own a home ultimate along with a success (likely at the MCG vs Hawthorn), but even though they stay in the 8 after losing, they could be heading to Brisbane for that elimination last. At the various other edge of the range, there is actually still a tiny odds they can creep right into the top 4, though it needs West Shoreline to trump Geelong in Geelong, as well as Essendon to trump Brisbane in Brisbane ... therefore a tiny odds. Fox Footy's forecast: Gain and also finish 6th, 'range' Hawthorn in an eradication final7. HAWTHORN (13-9, 111.8%) To play: North Melbourne at UTAS Arena, Saturday 4:35 pmWin: Complete 4th if Geelong, Brisbane as well as Western Bulldogs all shed as well as Carlton loses OR wins yet goes belly up to overtake all of them on portion (approx. 4 objectives) fifth if three happen, 6th if pair of happen, 7th if one occurs, 8th if none happenLose: Complete 7th if Fremantle sheds and also Carlton drops while remaining behind on amount, 8th if one loses, miss finals if each winAnalysis: Our company would rather be the Hawks than the Bulldogs now, as a result of that they've acquired delegated face. Sam Mitchell's males are actually a win out of September, and only need to function against an injury-hit N. Melbourne who appeared horrible versus claimed Pet dogs on Sunday. There's even a quite long shot they creep in to the top four more truthfully they'll get on their own an MCG removal last, either versus the Canines, Freo or Carlton. (The best-case case is most likely the Pets dropping, so the Hawks complete 6th and also play cry.) If they're upset through North though, they are actually just as terrified as the Dogs, waiting on Carlton as well as Fremantle to observe if they're evicted of the eight.Fox Footy's prophecy: Win and also finish 7th, 'away' to Western Bulldogs in an eradication finalMagic of Hok-ball detailed|03:418. CARLTON (13-9, 110.7%) To participate in: Street Kilda at Wonder Arena, Sunday 3:20 pmWin: Finish fourth if Geelong, Brisbane, Western Bulldogs as well as Hawthorn all lose OR Hawks gain however fall behind Woes on percentage (approx. 4 objectives), fifth if 3 occur, sixth if pair of take place, 7th if one occurs, 8th if none happenLose: End up 7th if Hawthorn sheds through good enough to fall behind on amount as well as Fremantle loses, 8th if one takes place, or else miss finalsAnalysis: Crippa's home state really aided all of them out this weekend. Fremantle's reduction, blended along with cry' get West Shore, sees all of them inside the 8 and even able to participate in finals if they're upset by Street Kilda next full week. (Though they 'd be actually left wishing Slot to defeat Freo.) Reasonably they are actually heading to would like to beat the Saints to promise themselves an area in September - and to provide on their own an odds of an MCG eradication final. If both the Pets and also Hawks shed, the Blues could possibly even hold that final, though we 'd be actually quite surprised if the Hawks shed. Percent is most likely to follow in to play thanks to Carlton's huge get West Coast - they might need to pump the Saints to stay away from playing Brisbane in Brisbane.Fox Footy's prediction: Gain and end up 8th, away to Brisbane in a removal final9. FREMANTLE (12-9-1, 113.7%) To participate in: Slot Adelaide at Optus Coliseum, Sunday 6:10 pmWin: End up sixth if Western Bulldogs, Hawthorn and Carlton lose, 7th if pair of lose, 8th if one sheds, skip finals if every one of all of them winLose: Will definitely skip finalsAnalysis: Oh terrific, yet another explanation to hate West Coastline. Their opponents' incapability to defeat the Blues' B-team indicates the Dockers go to real threat of their Around 24 game ending up being a lifeless rubber. The equation is actually rather easy - they need a minimum of one of the Dogs, Hawks or even Woes to shed prior to they participate in Slot. If that takes place, the Dockers may gain their method right into September. If all three gain, they'll be actually gotten rid of due to the time they take the industry. (Technically Freo can easily additionally catch Brisbane on amount however it is actually remarkably improbable.) Fox Footy's forecast: Drop and also miss finals10. COLLINGWOOD (11-9-2, 100.1%) Collingwood can technically still participate in finals, however needs to have to make up an amount gap of 30+ targets to capture Carlton, plus Fremantle has to lose.
