Game Day Round 6, 2025: West Coast vs Essendon (A Far Side Story)

[Spod]

Heartbreaker. Completely lost our cool going forward in the second half.

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Hoped the boys has won it for the WC supporters that headed for the exit after Menzies's mark.
Both Wateman antis & those people vindicated today...

 

[boondy]

Positive . Let's keep building

 

[Eaglemaniac]

Let's not have Harley in the middle...

Ridiculous coaching. Absolutely ridiculous.

Or our best mid from last week on for three quarters of the game.

 

[jdisc]

maybe if we didn't wait until the last minute to try we might have actually had a shot

 

[Broken_Chairs]

Pain

 

[Proeagle]

Did Gross even get subbed on?

 

[Underdog]

Cripps and Ryan completely what costs us along with harry edwards staying in ahead of brock

Harry was alright, McGovern killed us defensively - but that's how he plays

 

[Free Agent]

Frustrating as it is to lose it we have far too many players making really dumb decisions which costs us in the end.
I'm happy with the intent and major positive was Hewitt so we got a lot out of this game tonight.

Little confused about why Gross was subbed tonight when he has been doing pretty well.
Waterman was brilliant.

Flynn is much better then Bailey Williams too. He isn't the greatest but he is the best we have got so must persist with him for remainder of the season.

Ryan and Baker skills tonight absolutely killed us.

 

[Mudguts12]

Flat as a tack after that one.

Great game from Hewitt, we've got a player there just hope he can string some games together.

Flynn looking alot better ruck option around the ground 19 disposals, 7 marks.

 

[WCErevival]

The club will post a video of Ryan kicking one from the boundary at training.

 

[CursoryMercenary]

So ****ing frustrating.

 

[DorothyG]

Liam Ryan has been shithouse today, easily the worst on ground.

Not going to say he lost us this game, but he sure as shit hasn't helped us.

 

[Avalor]

FFS so close - a lousy 2 points. Should have been out first win. Cripps missing what he would usually kick, Ryan with a brain fade. Dodgy umpiring decisions. 3 50-meter penalties given away.
So close.
But well done, boys. We want that effort every week now.
Hewitt was immense.
Hunt and Owies are not offering much.

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

2 incredible brain farts by Graham and Ryan ending our hopes tonight.

 

[woosha24]

Devastating to lose like that, BUT - there are some good signs there.

 

[unty11]

Why isn't Harley being used in important centre bounce's where we are trying to be attacking? Yeah I get he's being put down back because that's where the ball tends to be for us but surely you throw him in the middle at pivotal times in the game? the last centre bounce had hewett, graham and kelly...

 

[Yeahnahmate]

Heaps of positives. Young guys at times looked dangerous charging through the middle. Hewett in particular, what a weapon he’s gonna be

 

[uncleoatmeal]

Hamish Davis might need to build his arms up to handball 50m because holy shit is that kicking action awful

 

[the harry]

Would have had Harley in that last centre bounce.

 

[Astro7]

Oh well...A lot to like about that game, compared to last week...

 

[Proeagle]

Pissed at that result. F uck the brave effort crap.

 

[squashface]

Gross sub and only brought on in the last.

Harley not in the centre at the end.

Pathetic group of spud coaches we have here.

 

[Cuzz09]

pretty obvious

Oh well had a go

 

[Smotie2]

Umpires gagf and head

The corruption is elite
