Can the Bombers finish top four? The simple answer is yes but plenty needs to fall into place during Round 22. First and foremost Essendon need to beat Collingwood convincingly. Essendon then needs Fremantle to beat West Coast, Port Adelaide to defeat Adelaide and Sydney to either lose to Melbourne or win narrowly. If all this happens, the Bombers will have the double chance and will play a Qualifying Final against Port Adelaide at AAMI Stadium in week one.

Of course there are many other combinations that can occur. Go to our Ladder Predictor, slot in your own selections and margins and find out where the Bombers will finish. The ladder predictor is under our interactive drop down, just under the masthead.
