The Battle for 8th - What needs to happen
Body: 

OK, I've heard the latest from the number crunchers and this is the final round maths for Box Hill or Sandringham to make the finals.

If Sandringham Lose to Geelong in the early game at Skilled Stadium (Saturday 10.40am) then Box Hill automatically qualify for finals.

If Sandringham Win then Box Hill have TWO options to make they finals.

1) If Box Hill WIN, then they book themselves a spot in the 8.

2) If Box Hill LOSE then there is the 94 point line, that is, if Sandringham where to beat Geelong by 34 points, Box Hill can lose, BUT by less than 60 points (IE: no more than 94 total).

So, if Sandy win and Box Hill lose and that 94 point line is past, Sandy is in the finals and Box Hill is out!

... and here's the kicker!

Box Hill play the Top of the Table and Undefeated Port Melbourne on Port's home ground.

For extra spice... revenge will be on the table, because Box Hill knocked Port out of last year's finals! (and Port knocked out the Hawks the year before that)

What a way to finish the Home and Away season!!!
