    Prediction Round 7, 2024: Changes vs Gold Coast

    Well I was listening to Simmo being interviewed on 6PR this evening and he mentioned somebody had a corkie however whoever he was talking about said he didn’t get up in time for this weekends game, however I missed the name of the player so perhaps it was Long?

    2nds West Coast Eagles WAFL Watch 2024

    You would think though if Perth continue down the bottom the way they are at the moment that the members may get restless and just maybe down the track may reconsider.

    Now that Trev has gone it may be different. Perth would be the logical team to have an alignment with as it appears on the field they are going nowhere - anyway time will tell.

    Autopsy Round 4, 2024: Positives and Negatives vs Sydney

    Not sure if you were being serious re the captaincy for next year - far too early for that lol albeit Harley is a very special player. Would still let Oscar continue as captain as he won’t be injured forever and then Harley can take over from him in due course - perhaps vice captain initially.

    Game Day Round 4, 2024: West Coast v Sydney

    Personally I don’t like the navy - too close to Carlton’s colours and will clash more with teams like Freo as well with their purple. Give me the royal blue any day as that was our original colours and is the colour that we have worn when we have won our flags as I believe in tradition!

    Don’t mind Hunt’s efforts either - may not be as classy as Yeo and Reid but he always puts in.

    Game Day Round 4, 2024: West Coast v Sydney

    Some of the younger brigade are playing AFL before their time imo - in an ideal world Chesser should have had more development in the WAFL but he hasn't been afforded that luxury.

    Game Day Round 4, 2024: West Coast v Sydney

    Many said the same thing about Glass in the early part of his career and we know how that turned out. It’s early days yet and he’s still getting the feel of AFL and has been out injured a fair bit in his early days - I think the development of some of our younger players leaves a lot to be...

    West Coast Eagles Priority Pick (2024)

    Couldn’t agree more - I think you will find most of our supporters agree with that one - terrible decision.

    Exactly! It’s just so frustrating to watch and that’s putting it mildly!

    Autopsy Round 3, 2024: Positives and Negatives vs Western Bulldogs

    The big question is - is it that the players are just no good or is it the lack of coaching that has made many go backwards and many have not developed the way they should - and then there’s the lack of skills - don’t get me started on that. One has to ask how on earth did we manage to win a...

    Autopsy Round 3, 2024: Positives and Negatives vs Western Bulldogs

    I think you are being a bit premature there as he has not received the proper development that he should - was brought into playing at AFL level far too soon without doing a proper apprenticeship at WAFL level - caused by too many injuries to the playing group as a whole of course. And playing...

    Didn’t Reid pull a hammy or something.
