Preview Round 1, 2024 vs West Coast Eagles @ Adelaide Oval 17/3/24

[Marmozet]

 

[Progressive Aggresion]

My gut telling me Harley will drop 40+ against us in his first game and then barely average 15 for the rest of the season

 

[Doctor Feel]

Have we lost yet

 

[Progressive Aggresion]

In all seriousness though, we should realistically smash them given we only beat them by 40 last year with half of our first choice key forwards out with injury.

Soldo should also really give Bailey Williams a bath unless he's somehow worse than Teakle.

We had a terrible pre-season last year and still turned up well for round 1. No reason why we shouldn't smash them on the back of a much stronger pre-season. Strange things happen in round 1 though.

 

[Alberton Proud]

WC aren’t that bad
Bring their A game and it’ll be tighter than most may think

They are horrendous

 

[Jonts]

50pt win should be the line

 

[HugeJohnson]

Yes, they are.

 

[JUSTWORK]

They have been atrocious today.

 

[Buget]

I know it’s only round 1, but WC will have 2 trips to Adelaide in 3 weeks.

That’s some average planning by the AFL.

Currently eagerly awaiting Sportsbet to drop their 1/2 time markets for Port-WC Round 1, because I think $100 on West Coast to lead at 1/2 time could be a reasonably astute investment.

Port will still win but who would be surprised by a diabolical first half performance?

 

[Doctor Feel]

WHO IS READY FOR TOTAL FOOTBALL FLAT TRACKING FEEL THE EEEEEEELECTRICITY FKCIN PUMPED!

Then they’ll be back in 3 weeks for Gather Round.

They don’t mind often sending the WA teams to SA though as it means less travel distance for them.

 

[240volt]

They have been atrocious today.

They have been atrocious for some time.
Don’t know who pumps up opposition teams more, hinkley or our posters.

 

[afl2004]

10 goal win easily, rd1 is hinkleys brownlow

I would have thought the AFL would have forced Port and the Crows to go to the West for the preseason games because of the gather round “extra” home game.

WC seem to have been a little screwed with scheduling. Of more interest is Freo playing Port in Adelaide the week after the Gather Round. I wonder if they will stay in Adelaide?

 

[yepits2020]

Don’t worry folks, we’ll find a way to keep it tight, keep them in the game and lose by less than a goal.

 

[It Just Is]

They are horrendous

And on top of that they have a lot of injuries

 

[240volt]

And on top of that they have a lot of injuries

They have had a lot of injuries for years.
The drawback of hanging onto players when they are past it.
Sort of Dixon on a larger scale.

 

[tribey]

can’t wait for this one!

 

[afl2004]

can’t wait for this one!

Wouldn’t put the house on it. If it’s $7 plus maybe a 20

 

[Flog111]

How is everyone watching footy this year? I might need a new tv and get kayo seems cheapest.

They are a bottom side and will be treated as such.
