West Coast - where to now?

[bzparkes]

Sheed has close to double the amount of uncontested to contested possessions. Redden also has more uncontested then contested possessions.

Neither were able to displace Priddis in the midfield which is quite an indictment considering how your board rates Priddis.

Your own club thought they weren't good enough to be the main ball winners.

Bit hard to 'displace' Priddis when your selection committee plays him regardless of form and their sole reasoning is "He's Matt Priddis".

 

[Obeanie1]

Lol
, then again you thought (most likely still do think )neale wouldn't get a game in your midfild

Um. Never said that at all actually.

Nice counter arguement!

NEXT!

 

[Obeanie1]

Huh

Now use your words.

With Mitchell and Priddis retired Yeo will be spending a fair bit more time playing midfield in 2017. He played through there in 2017 but was exceptional at half back. Eagles most depth is half backs. He should play as our centre in 2018.

If you actually knew anything about the Eagles list and players you wouldnt be grunting like a cave man.

Yeo is like Fyfe?

 

[Obeanie1]

We beat the Bombers at Subi last year and only fell short by 15pts against them at Eithad.

Shuey - Sheed - Redden is your starting midfield. I'd be saying you're in for a world of embarrassing performances over the next few years.

Luckily we have a very good backline and a very efficient forward line.

As for embarrassing performances we will leave that up to Freo. They really performed exceptionally well in that regard in 2017.

 

[bzparkes]

Yeo is like Fyfe?

Nah, Yeo's a better kick.

 

[Obeanie1]

Yeo is like Fyfe?

You are getting warmer.

He is certainly more like Fyfe than he is Neale or Hill.

190cm, can take a big mark, Fyfe is better in close with the bash and crash, Yeo likes to go for a dash.

At this stage Fyfe is ahead of Yeo as a mid but Yeo has the tools to improve as a mid.

 

[Obeanie1]

Losing a game by over 100 points at your home ground and then doing a lap of honour afterwards, with fireworks going off in the background.
C’mon mate, nobody does embarrassing quite like Freo

Well done!

Lol.

Sorry I'll leave you to your delusion.

 

[kranky al]

Yeo is like Fyfe?

I wouldnt have said so either

Yeo is not a natural mid.

Doesnt know where the ball is going - like say fyfe for instance.

Yeo is better in the backline where he just has to follow his opponent to the ball then beat him with athleticism.

Yeo also looks good tagging fyfe as hes a physical match for him and fyfe drags him to the right places.

Eagles fans that think yeo is our midfield messiah are mistaken - hes a rotation at best.

 

[bh90210fan]

Such a special moment that final game at Subi

Must of been one of your other "clued up" supporters then...but yeah onto the next so Venebles is the equal more or less to Harley bennell and my favourite duggan more or less as good as walters?....you dont work for seven west media by any chance?

Dont bring up Bennell. He still has to string together some games. Walters is out of the eagles league.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

When will they start winning games away from home, pantskyle?

 

[Obeanie1]

Lol.

Sorry I'll leave you to your delusion.

Delusions are for those who think an uncontrolled drug program where thousands of unknown substances were injected into players stomachs with their consent is the way to win a premiership.

Carry on.

Refer 2017 game against Western Bulldogs in Melbourne, best win of the year. No Priddis and no Mitchell. Amazing how a quicker midfield group can do wonders even without any decent rucks like Naitaniu or Lycett.

Swings and roundabouts as I posted. Naitanui v a 35 year old Sandilands should make up for the gap between a Harley Bennell (with dodgy calfs) and a young gun in Venerable's.

A 33 year old Mundy who seems to be picking up old man injuries versus a Redden who has been played out of position.

Walters who seems more interested in beating his chest to the crowd and sticking his tongue out when he finally kicks a goal versus Duggan who is the ultimate team player and future captain of the club.

We had an away from subi record much the same as richmonds away from the mcg record.

Checkmate!


<Durple>

Still not quite as special as Postman Pav..


To do it on multiple occasions

 

[Carson Dial]

Yeo is like Fyfe?

Yes, they both grew up supporting Freo,
That’s where the similarity ends.

Yeah

History tells us that yeos at a club that wins premierships and that hes a part of an organisation likely to devise a way for him to do so.

Fyfe....

Notsomuch.

 

[Carson Dial]

Yeah

Notsomuch.

So let me get this straight you would honestly select Yeo over Fyfe? I think history would not back your hypothesis.

 

[bzparkes]

Depends on when we play Port at AO.

Fyfe's outstanding no doubt but we've finally gotten rid of most of our ball butchers that I'd be loathe to add another one.
