Game Day Round 21, 2025: West Coast vs Melbourne

[Quinz]

Chesser Hewett Gross really working hard today.

 

[Shuestar13]

Lucky to not be further behind, but still some positives in terms of ball movement and intent. Forward line a mess though

 

[Boohemian]

Did he just say "drop campaigner" instead of "drop punt"?

 

[Matele]

Ryan Maric.... You were not seriously going to checkside it from 15m out were you?

It’s the way of the modern player, supposedly.

 

[Cuzz09]

Innacuracy making it look better hey

Lucky to not be further behind, but still some positives in terms of ball movement and intent. Forward line a mess though

 

[KERRPOW]

We're right on the 'strike' of quarter time folks

 

[WCErevival]

Not a great quarter but definitely not the worst we've put up this year.

 

[BartBart]

Would be so much worse against a better team.

 

[Westend]

Duggan gone okay this quater

wow A reid did something

 

[Free Agent]

I don't care what anyone says but that goal from Maric was arguably our goal of the year.

 

[eaglesnutcase]

We are like sheep. We all run to the same place. Melb had three players in front of the contest 20 m out from goal. We had nobody

 

[Shifty1]

Did he just say "drop campaigner" instead of "drop punt"?

Yep he certainly did

 

[Cuzz09]

90 possies at 76% DE sounds good

How do they get these stats?

 

[eaglesfan84]

Can we understand that Ryan Maric is one of the few players we have with football smarts and let it go with the hate. He is clearly up to the level

Defensively he isn't, and his skills are hit and miss.

 

[UseR2006]

15 points at qtr time. I'll take it.
**** me that was some of the stupidest football we have played this year.

Maric... **** off.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Gawn shaping the game with his presence down the line and Melbourne having an extra on top of that is killing us.

Gawn-Petracca-Viney-Oliver-Pickett midfield unsurprisingly on top of ours.

Connection to the forwardline is the big focus of this offseason and will unlock a lot, we have just had no reliable connection all year save for Waterman in a one on one.

 

[Ace McKane]

Chesser Hewett Gross really working hard today.

Hall and Ginbey to that too, our young dudes really standing up here. Harley would be the cherry on top of this lot.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Isn't this what we've wanted for years?

Great involvement from Hewett, Hall, Chess, Gross, Maric etc.

Let the kids cook! They'll make mistakes but we're on 1 win anyway lel.

 

[Wooshaaaa]

Gross ginbeys Hewett cole working hard.

Bazzo won't survive

Duggan needs play in forward line.

Owes can **** right off.

The dees supporters here omg.

 

[ziad]

Decision making killing us - experience may improve it. I would like to see more physical pressure.
Kelly good, Chesser looking like a keeper.

 

[Free Agent]

Let's just draw 50 metre penalities instead of kicking inside 50. Much more effective.

Our new game plan.

 

[Cuzz09]

Duggan 8 possessions @100%

 

[Wooshaaaa]

Chesser.doing ok.

 

[whatis]

Cole very lucky to not have given away 2 goals there. Lazy handball in defence, followed by clear holding the man the umps missed.

Even luckier, umps paid the exact same free to Ginbey against Melbourne right after.

 

[KaaL]

Ryan Maric wouldn’t get a game anywhere in the league.
