Does the dees flogging the bears do anything for us,  IE knock the pies out of a double chance?
Nothing.

Dees and Lions were basically on a par. So either result means the same for the Pies.
Pies win, they are top 4.
Pies lose, they are not.

Most likely result from here is 5th and 6th spot will be held by either Lions, Dockers, or Swans.....depending on the results.
So if we make finals, 95% chance we are travelling interstate week 1 unless an underdog gets up (ess over tigers, saints over swans, gws over dockers......all unlikely)

While the home ground crowd still heavily influences umpires, I think the bye has greatly reduced the travel impact of the interstate final.

If the Giants win (they have started well) and we win we will play Collingwood again.

Imagine stopping Collingwood from getting the double chance and then knocking them out first week. Bigger than 99.
2012 HAPPENED!!!!!!!

If Richmond win and we make the finals looks like its Brisbane at Brisbane - yuck.

Hope we play better than we did last time at Brisbane. Can't for the life of me barrack for the scum against Richmond so whatever.

I've kind of made peace with the result either way.
Win, lose or draw (that'd still be a good result ;) ), as long as they bring effort this afternoon I'm happy with the season.

Should we lose, we were obviously not ready, and it's doubtful we'd have lasted deep into the finals anyway.

"But the finals experience would be invaluable. You just don't get that in regular round games" some might say.

Seriously ::)  :)

Final round of the year, no 'next time' for us if we lose
A huge build up
A packed MCG
Fanatical supporters
Two teams with everything to play for...

Do folks really think that because a game in two weeks time has 'finals' written alongside it that it can match what's going to happen this afternoon.
The only games that will come close are the final two weeks of the season. ;)

I just hope the boys haven't played this game in their minds all week.
We absolutely MUST get off to a great start.
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time
2025-Carlton can win the 2025 AFL Premiership

We haven't been in this position since 2013 when we knocked off Port to play finals. 

Our team was on the slide then and we didn't really know it.

Feels like Grand Final day from another era.
Will be in front of the box with beers and chips and get to watch the blues play in the twos  followed by the big match.

Exciting day ahead.  Go blues....

I expect to win , been a wasted season otherwise. Won't be happy finishing ninth given the talent we have assembled on paper and the start to the season we had.

Outside of COVID restrictions, this is the first Carlton / Collingwood game I won't be going to in several years, and I'm missing the reserves as well!  :(

I reckopn there's been a little bit of game playing and it wouldn't surprise to see late changes for both sides.
