You ripper Swannies

Well....the win by Swans today changes the complexion of the top 5 a little bit but still think WCER has a good enough run home to push WP or Perth out of the equation but it does give both of them a little bit of breathing room.

Perth (32 points currently) - WCE (Loss), EF (Win) and Peel (Win) still to come I can see them finishing on 40 points.
WP (32) - Cl (L), S (L), SF (L) - 32 points
Peel (24) - SF (L), SD (W), Pth (L) - 28 points
WCER (24) - Pth (W), EP (W), EF (W) - 36 points

WP will need to win at least one of the remaining games to be safe and if Perth beat WCER next weekend then they will be ok as well. If they lose, their terrible percentage means they'll need to win their remaining two if WCER doesn't drop any against EP and EF.

They had 16 Eagles players today BC including AFL Premiership players in Hutchings, Duggan & Vardy...they were hardly down on personnel and a fair bit stronger than the side you smashed last week!

I was just going by the team in the paper BH but it also makes your win all the more meritorious. Vardy played against us last week but I also saw where Duggan only lasted 15 minutes before going off with injury and Hutchins I guess would have been managed to a certain extent.

Did he not play?
Not our problem he got injured again WCE were probably thinking he would have a nice soft run around vs SD.

He didn't have a single possession before getting injured according to the stats on the WAFL site so not sure why you even mentioned him tbh...but a very good win nonetheless.

The five is set. Two game break with three to play.

Not quite Roman....not quite. There's still a few twists and turns to go yet I reckon.

Perth only have to win one game from here. Even if WC win their last 3. Not saying I only want them to win one but that is all they have to do. I am not particularly confident. Saying all this I would much prefer to win 2 and finish 4th to play WP at Lathlain in the first elimination final. Sure I don't like WP with their long pockets and short arms but it would garner more interest than Perth v WC in the final.
