We want 2nd place and the Kangers are good enough on their day to beat Collingwood.

Pies going poorly enough it's not too unrealistic. But they'll find decent form soon, so I'd like to get into 2nd ASAP!

 

[Woobla Stainz]

Bruce is the worst. I’ve been saying it for 20years

Dennis carried him for a long time. I only realized how poo Bruce was when Den retired.

 

[MrKK]

Prob would have been better for GWS to keep Collingwood out of the top 2

Collingwood are skirting with a loss most weeks and still have to come to Perth. We can catch them.

 

[FatPizza]

Well we play the pies in two weeks. Just need to win the other games between them.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Atrocious umpiring and a blatant mistake on the game tying goal ‘review’. All adds up. Helps us, but shit I’d be annoyed if I were a GWS fan.

 

[MrKK]

Would be great to play GWS in a GF. BOI OH BOI THEY WILL THEY WILT

Not to mention how much easier it will be to get a ticket.

 

[Keys]

Didn’t watch the game so can’t comment on the quality of the umpiring other than to say that if we had a 6 point win at home on the back of a 29-14 free kick count it would be a lead story.

Noise of affirmation exists in WA only

The salt would shut down and corrode bigfooty servers

 

[Ok Boomer]

Great result for us but GWS got absolutely reamed, legitimate 29-14 free kick counts aren’t common.

 

[TY24]

Great result for us but GWS got absolutely reamed, legitimate 29-14 free kick counts aren’t common.

Especially not when the team with twice as many free kicks lost almost every key stat on the ground

 

[TY24]

I'm happy that GWS lost, I just wish the team that benefited from it wasn't Essendon

 

[Dazzler9]

They’d both be annoyed, I’m sure

 

[Avalor]

Makes our win against Essenscum last week look even better.

 

[Rowan18]

Draw would have been nice. Take GWS % out of the equation coming home.

Nah, you're looking at it wrong. If they draw they get 2 points instead of zero. That means if we have equal number of wins at the end of the season, their draw means that our % is irrelevant. Our opponents losing outright is always a better outcome.

For the rest of the season, we want our top 4 rivals to lose as much as possible. If we lose a game, we want to hope it's not against a top 4 rival. This means winning against Crows and Pies is crucial, luckily both games are at home.

 

[Max zero]

So a win on Saturday puts us into outright 3rd. We really need to beat Collingwood when we play them here if we want 2nd.

Ideally we want Collingwood to lose to the Giants, Crows or Richmond as well.

 

[amazingjoshy]

Didn't see any footy tonight, but looks a great result all round...

Giants lose, gives us a chance to jump them on the ladder
Woosha give the boys club coming for his head an up yours
One sided fk count to highlight (again) the hypocrisy of Vic media floggos

 

[Forward Press]

Destiny is in our hands. If we win the games we're expected to we will finish top two.

But to borrow the old footy cliché - one week at a time. Not looking past the Hawks game, we cannot afford to be complacent at any stage.

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

Giants didn't kick straight when they had the chance. Got smashed in the last quarter. Dominated 3 and a half quarters then the Dons had most of the inside 50's. Weird game.

The Age reporting that Rawlings is confirmed as gone

West Coast likely to stop Eagle landing as North footy boss till after draft

West Coast are likely to stop list manager Brady Rawlings from starting his new job as North's footy boss until after the draft

www.theage.com.au

Will make sense if he leaves immediately rather than be involved in our upcoming trading and drafting

Who will we get though to take his place. He should be made to see out his contract, but just goes to show contracts are not worth a pinch of salt! From what I heard earlier today though the Club said they would not release Rawlings from his contract so wonder if The Age are jumping the gun?

 

[Yamumluvsbigcox]

I dont know what was worse the horrible bias umpiring or having that cheating flog jobe watson in the commentary box .

The vic boys club was alive and well tonight

Silvani might be available

 

[Nuke Fremantle]

Umps given the word..."only 2 Vic clubs in the 8, do something about it"

 

[Cuzz09]

Great result.

We smash Ess last week then they bounce back and beat a team around us on the ladder.

Hoping we can beat Hawthorn then they bounce back and beat Collingwood next week on a Friday night.
