Game Day Round 4 St Kilda vs West Coast - Sat @2:35

[Eastcoasteagle]

Is Billings playing? Thinking about it, Saints actually have a pretty damn talented side on paper they just never seem to perform. Fingers crossed today is another one of those days

I'm going to game today, and a bit worried as they definitely have talented side and will surely come out breathing fire.

Go easy friends.

Go easy friends.

Sorry friendo, but we need to smash your mob. For the greater good.

I have to admit I still don't fully understand how the emergencies list and sub thing works?
Do they declare the emergencies before leaving then only take a couple, then one is a medical sub? The rest play Wafl, or do they take the whole emergency list over and one is a sub, surely not?
Anyone care to enlighten a befuddled senior? ((;

 

[Clubs are trumps]

This is the sort of game we are likely to drop. Always some middling Victorian team away that upsets us

Plenty of this Saints bashing this week, which doesn't bode well as we'll be getting a fired up saints outfit with no Shuey.
Everyone predicting an easy win for us, but I reckon this will be s really tough match for us. Hopefully we prevail.

I expect west coast to prevail easily

Saw that family, friends, flags doco from when we beat Richmond in 2018. One thing I likes from Simmo’s pre game address was that he mentioned that the Hawks got touched up and he pleaded with the boys not to undo all the work they just did by not turning up the following week. These two games have a very similar vibe to the 2018 games and I hope the boys are on.

It used to be teams were named on Thursday afternoon with a list of 4 emergencies- teams playing on Sunday had to provide a 26 man squad with emergencies to be nominated on Friday

Last year this was changed to teams naming their sides the day before due to covid and the flexible fixture.

That’s been retained for this year so teams are named the afternoon before game day. However, we travel 2 days out so the players fly out before the team is actually named.

Only 1 or 2 (Vardy and winder this week) actually travel with the other emergencies remaining at home to play WAFL

The medical emergency is nominated an hour before bounce down

You going for a squizz?

 

[Spange]

Never underestimate your opponent. I’m sure Simmo prepared the boys for the best the saints have to offer. Hoping we do this one for Shep who is truly a special player for us. Like guy McKenna. So reliable

 

[Biggie]

Danger game

WCE by 89

Nah out of town again today, but will be melting watching it on TV

 

[kranky al]

So nervous about this one.

should win - but its away and winning away is just as hard in victoria as it is for victorian teams to win here

no matter what pants on head stupid mcg team supporting viccos think

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Winder “debuting” as the sub can get in the bin, but either way I hope we buckle down and get a really strong result today.

The Port win was huge, and the Dogs are looking very strong. Losing to them by a kick without Shuey and Yeo, while still frustrating, seems to indicate we’re right up with the best again this year. Need to professionally get the job done today.

Fire up campaigners.

 

[ep2018]

Needs to be a win. And we will win. Expecting a close game tho.

 

[Altum Volantes]

Nervous about this one (but I always am).

Winder with the Sub-Debut is lame.

....but hope he doesn’t get a run.

 

[lusheslewis]

Is Winder the first medical sub debut?

Hawks did it

 

[the harry]

Would like a start similar to last week just to ease the nerves

 

[Ochre]

Hawks did it

North too

[Wosh]

We’re here and it’s soooo ******* awesome
Great turnout of Eagles supporters, roof on and ground looks amazing.

UP YOU BEAUTIFUL COASTERS

 

[BeornJ]

Hurry up Kayo

 

[woosha24]

Gee if Saints wanna concede 100+ points from turnovers today then that would just be swell.
