Hawks qualifying for playoffs

Depends if you're assuming the 36ers won the series 3-1 rather than 2-2 and with a points advantage. It doesn't factor in at all given they didn't have similar records.

Seems like a strange hypothetical. I wouldn't have considered Illawarra a bogey team for Adelaide. The 36ers looked like the better team in the first two semi-final games to me.

There are more knife-edge ones in the Gliddon foul incident that cost Cairns a win in Perth, or the final Perth-Melbourne game which would've been critical.

Hawks I feel have been a good consistent team all season.
Wildcats look like they came good at the right time by adding Cotton

Cairns and Sydney were their bogey sides during the regular/minor season and one of those teams made the semi-finals. They split their series with Perth but lost on the points spread by 6 points. That suggests they earned their spot to me.

They have been disappointing in the Final series to date, perhaps Game 3 of the semi-final series was their peak. I hope not.

I suspect Perth have simply gone to another level which is no surprise given their experience.

AND WHY I DIDN'T BUY INTO ANY OF THE BS FROM CERTAIN PERTH FANS MOANING ABOUT THE END OF THE STREAK!!!! :-)

(Even though it came down to that final game against Melbourne, bloody Melbourne!)

Then if the 36ers had won the series they miss out definitely by one game.

If they lost an extra game, the Hawks would've finished 14-14 and level with New Zealand. They won that series on points differential (+11) so I think they still would've finished fourth.
