Like the Saints and Roos, a minor miracle would be needed if the Giants were to play Wildcard Weekend, but it’s more than possible against the 16th-placed Eagles on Sunday.
Sitting in 12th spot and two games outside the 10, the Giants lost their third game in four outings when they went down to the Gold Coast by two points last week.
Jayden Laverde punctured his lung in the loss but is a test ahead of this week.
The Eagles weren’t disgraced in their 19-point loss to Collingwood but are still considered wild outsiders at $5.75.
It might have something to do with their inability to kick a goal on the road, having lose 23 of their last 24 away matches.
The Giants to bounce back in this one.
