Round 1 West Coast Eagles v Western Bulldogs

[estibador]

Cox needs a new gameplan

The arms back fall backwards only worked with Gieschen

Might as well retire - there goes half his possessions.

 

[Spuddage]

Wow, I don't know if I will sleep tonight.

I feel like cutting myself.

Please don't Peppy, you're one of the only decent Freo supporters.

 

[Rusty22]

Not if we play like we did this week.

dogs are that bad though

First Week of Finals - 6th September - Saturday Night - Patersons Stadium = ...RUGBY!?!

Patersons Stadium, you've done it again...

Blame the ****wits at the WAFC and the AFL for allowing then to give it the all clear

 

[Tas]

Eagles are blazing away from 55m out rather than hit up some targets.

 

[estibador]

I for one am stoked that the Dogs look like beating the spread and keeping us top.

Unless the eagles bang on a few late ones and overtake us, then I don't give a s**t about being top after R1.

 

[Dazb86]

Lol the Crameri show continues. Does an injury roosting a goal from the goalsquare.

 

[Klaus]

so the score 117 points in 3 quarters and 62 in half of the 4th quarter?

Similar to the Brisbane-Hawthorn match. It's due to the players getting tired and not being able to put the same defensive pressure they do at the start of the match.

 

[Rod Stroker]

We have different views of mediocrity clearly.

Topping the ladder in round one is essentially meaningless. Getting the four points for the win has all the meaning thats required.

Maybe your lot should have tried that against Essendon

Because one round makes a season.

 

[DivideandMultiply]

Again Cripps, 3 or 4 OOTF, just handpass FFS.

 

[Suma Magic]

Good to get a win against an older side.

Wasteful, but convincing.

 

[imperial_oz]

Because one round makes a season.

Ummm that was my point!

Topping the ladder in round 1 means SFA. Topping it after round 23 has some significance

 

[Tas]

1 round is enough, give us Simpson back!

 

[Tbonefreo]

edited for accuracy

Thank you had no clue

 

[im_a_lazy_sod]

Again Cripps, 3 or 4 OOTF, just handpass FFS.

Still, at least he chips in for a couple.

 

[Klaus]

I like him, though. He'll be shown the tape during the week, won't make the same mistakes in round 2.

 

[BananaOnTheRun]

Yeah, not saying there's anything wrong with it, just surprised me a bit that he did for some reason, had never noticed it before.

He's a bit an inner city hipster, Bob. They love their tatts.

 

[Adz]

Shocking effort from Dogs.

 

[DivideandMultiply]

Reminds of Nickoski. Quick, can have a great kick, strong through the core, and overhead, but so hungry and can blaze oob

Well they would need to kick over 175 points and keep the dogs at 69.

that makes sense! should hit over at most games in halftime then

or are there some teams who really can't hold up defensive pressure for the whole game? depends a lot on the score too i think, and the gameplan..

 

[Klaus]

It's actually been a really fun last quarter, both teams have gone in attack mode and there have been some exciting plays from both teams.

 

[DivideandMultiply]

What push?

 

[peppy la pew]

You honestly don't care that your club could be on top after a round completion for the first time ever?

Relatively significant step I'd think in the history of a club...next mantle is holding it for more than 1 week, and then winning the minor premiership..

Get a ******* grip mate, it's round 1

We knocked of Collingwood in Melbourne, I'm happy with that

 

[Igloo]

What push?

You've gotta be kidding...
