Defensively brilliant and offensively, the slingshot is a joy to watch. Four players – Charlie Cameron, Eric Hipwood, Cam Rayner and Lincoln McCarthy – have all kicked 15-plus goals this season, while Zac Bailey, Lachie Neale and Dayne Zorko have all proven their ability to hit the scoreboard. The Saints are ranked No. As I said to a good friend last night, I’m not committing to making a prediction for who wins the 2020 AFL Grand Final. The Lions also don’t have a heavy reliance on one forward. AFL. West Coast can get to 48 points - though it’s hard to be overly confident in them against the Saints. Two of the best LoL Korean teams are scheduled for a showdown on Sunday. It’s time to check out the odds and bets for the four AFL finals matches scheduled to be played between Thursday, October 1, and Saturday, October 3. AFL Ladder Predictor 2020: All 23 Rounds & Finals - YouTube Premiers: Richmond — Heart hopes Brisbane, logic says Richmond. The premiership pedigree in this game is immense, with both sides consistent powerhouses in the league. Why the Magpies can win the flag: Nathan Buckley’s team has been extremely consistent over the past few years, even if the Pies had to sneak into the finals in 2020. They had the best defence and second-best attack during the home and away season. But they have also dropped points that should have been theirs. The fact they can have genuine ‘home’ games while Richmond, Geelong and West Coast (after the elimination final) can’t is a big deal. We analyse every AFL … And what a game this should be. However, both the Bulldogs and Saints suffer from consistency issues. I don’t think they can. That’s never easy, but especially this year when your ‘best’ option might be the Power in Adelaide or the Lions in Brisbane - two of the rare finalists who’d get a true home crowd. It’ll complete a remarkable turnaround for Ken Hinkley to go from the league’s most under-pressure coach to premiership coach. This match will be a high-scoring, highly physical affair as both clubs will look to secure the final spot in the grand final. With the home final against Collingwood, Simpson’s team have one opportunity to make the most of its advantage. Pundits were also asked to provide their finals MVP and Norm Smith medal tip — and Tigers superstar Dustin Martin was well backed in both categories. Elimination final 1: West Coast Eagles vs Collingwood Without two of their major stars, Andrew Gaff and Nic Naitanui, the Eagles still managed to lift the cup at the MCG in 2018. Elimination final 2: St Kilda vs Western Bulldogs The Lions will celebrate in front of their many adoring fans in Queensland as the rest of the competition prepares for another unpredictable campaign in 2021. The Power (to come: Essendon at AO, Collingwood away) are essentially locked into the top four, given their percentage lead over West Coast. The team has played a chunk of the season without stars Gary Ablett and Joel Selwood as well but have still managed to secure a top-four position. When these two sides met at the Metricon earlier this season, the Cats ran out winners with a ten goal deficit. Add in the fact Shane Edwards, Dion Prestia and David Astbury have returned at the right time of the year and the Tigers, again, are a menacing prospect. The nature of the cameras in this situation, and the way lenses can warp the position of the ball, mean it’s impossible to tell which angle was right. … afl; Where will every finals contender finish on the AFL ladder? Fox Footy’s David King has had an asterisk next to the Power for most of the season for this reason. Our prediction: Finish 2nd and host Geelong Cats in qualifying final, GEELONG CATS (44 pts, 145.1%) [to come: Richmond, Sydney], Best case: Finish 1st if they beat Richmond and Sydney AND Port Adelaide loses once AND Brisbane loses once, Worst case: Finish 5th if they lose to Richmond and Sydney AND West Coast beats St Kilda and North Melbourne. Norm Smith medal: Dusty Martin (Richmond), Brownlow Medal: Lachlan Neale (Brisbane Lions). October surprise: Collingwood to make the preliminary final. The Cats were the most common runners-up prediction. In their two finals losses to Richmond and the Giants last year, the Lions booted a wasteful 19.31. Analysis: The Cats’ percentage lead on West Coast is so big, it’s like having an extra win on the board, so as long as Chris Scott’s side beats Sydney in Round 18 it will earn the double chance. He’s so dangerous and off the finals series last year will only take it to a new level as he falls in love with the big stage. The best until proven otherwise. And as we enter the 2020 series, you can make a case for all eight clubs to win this year’s premiership. This time they’ll have to endure an already tough and prolonged interstate hub stay for a few more weeks in order to create a genuine AFL dynasty. If their territory game struggles and the midfield can’t apply sufficient defensive pressure, the Saints backline will be up against it. Their stingy defence, contested ball dominance and strong forward-half game will stand up in finals against the best teams. Bang! He’ll light it up. It seemed so far away and now here it is: Finals Footy. Get your 14-day free trial & start streaming instantly >, First Qualifying Final (1 v 4): Port Adelaide v Richmond at the Adelaide Oval, First Elimination Final (5 v 8): West Coast Eagles v Collingwood at Optus Stadium, Second Elimination Final (6 v 7): St Kilda v Western Bulldogs at the Gabba or Metricon Stadium, Second Qualifying Final (2 v 3): Brisbane Lions v Geelong Cats at the Gabba, PORT ADELAIDE (48 pts, 131.4%) [To come: Essendon, Collingwood], How to make the top four: Win once OR West Coast loses once, Best case: Finish 1st if they beat Essendon and Collingwood AND Brisbane does not pass them on percentage, OR win once and Brisbane and Geelong both lose once, Worst case: Finish 5th if they lose to Essendon and Collingwood AND Brisbane wins at least once AND Geelong beats Sydney AND Richmond beats Geelong and Adelaide AND West Coast beats St Kilda and North Melbourne and gains percentage. Analysis: The Demons really should have been a win away from finals right now, but dropping those games to Sydney and Fremantle were two consecutive daggers to their chances. Can the Magpies get their revenge this weekend? The same applies to their opponents on the day. Our prediction: Finish 7th and face St Kilda in elimination final, MELBOURNE (28 pts, 106.1%) [to come: GWS, Essendon], How to make the finals: Beat GWS and Essendon AND ONE OF St Kilda loses twice OR Collingwood loses twice OR Western Bulldogs lose at least once, OR beat GWS and GWS loses to St Kilda and Bulldogs lose twice, Best case: Finish 6th if they beat GWS and Essendon AND St Kilda loses twice AND Collingwood loses twice AND the Western Bulldogs lose at least once, Worst case: Miss finals if they lose twice OR they lose once and the Bulldogs or Giants win at least once OR they win twice but THREE OF St Kilda wins at least once OR Collingwood wins at least once OR GWS wins twice OR the Western Bulldogs win twice. Port Adelaide wrapped up the minor premiership on Monday night with a win over Collingwood. After a disappointing performance in the finals against GWS last year, they’ll definitely want to prove to the AFL world they have what it takes to bounce back with a bite. A good move, all things considered. With the Port Adelaide victory, the finals matches are now set, so it’s time to put on our psychic hats and try to predict the outcomes of the games. Despite coming into the season as arguably one of the premiership favourites, Collingwood’s year has been a rocky disappointment. The Power’s forward 50 efficiency has been heavily reliant on Dixon’s ability to pluck a contested mark and convert. But they play a high-play-on, high-handball game that is enthralling to watch and has cut up several rival teams this season. Of the 12 asked, seven tipped the Tigers to win their third premiership in four seasons. Brisbane and St Kilda have both shown they can be high-scoring teams this season, though both have also shown inconsistency in front of goal. The Saints on their day have been excellent. CARLTON (28 pts, 97%) [to come: Adelaide, Brisbane], How to make the finals: Beat Adelaide and Brisbane AND THREE OF St Kilda loses twice (percentage an issue) OR Collingwood loses twice OR GWS loses at least once OR Western Bulldogs lose at least once OR Melbourne lose at least once, Best case: Finish 6th if they beat Adelaide and Brisbane AND St Kilda loses to GWS AND Collingwood loses twice AND GWS loses to Melbourne AND the Bulldogs lose at least once AND Melbourne loses to Essendon AND they build percentage, Worst case: Miss finals if they lose twice OR they lose once and the Bulldogs or Giants win at least once OR they win twice but three or more of the necessary things in ‘How to make the finals’ don’t happen. October surprise: It’ll be October and I’m not in Bali … could 2020 get any worse? If any of the Bulldogs, Magpies or Giants go 2-0 over the next two rounds, they’ll probably play finals, and looking at the fixtures it sure seems like Luke Beveridge’s side is the most likely to do it. Most importantly, the humiliation of being eliminated in straight sets after two home final losses last year no doubt would still burn among the playing group. A Set small text size A Set the default text size A Set large text size. The Magpies have the best defence in the competition and it will mean teams will struggle to score against them even if they boast a big tall target inside 50. and advice for dealing with problem gambling. Damien Hardwick’s game plan is worth two to three goals on their opposition each and every week. That day, Geelong smashed Port Adelaide 103-44. Brownlow Medal: Lachie Neale (Brisbane Lions). Note: Essendon and Fremantle can both mathematically make the eight but it is very unlikely either of them do.
