    The only thing I understand in that lot is Dirk's first post!

    So does it mean as long as we win our next two games we're in the play offs then?

    it's taken some time......................

    cos there's 27 x 27 = 729 possible results but sparing you the calculations </p>

    the probability of us making the playoffs is 0.755  slightly more than 3 in 4</p>
