    Prediction How many wins in 2019 H&A and what ladder position at the end of it?

    Do the ladder predictor. How many wins will we have before finals? What will be our ladder position at the end of R23? I've got 16 wins and 3rd.

    Preview Changes R6 v Geelong

    Gee that was s**t. But how many changes are realistic?

    Preview How will we line up in R1 v Brisbane Lions?

    We are but weeks away from the beginning of another glorious campaign. We've had a few retirements and exits since we made all and sundry EAD on September 29, 2018. So if we look at our best side from 2018, there are some definite outs: LeCras, Lycett, Gaff, Cripps. And I guess question marks...

    Preview Identify the biggest factor in whether we can go again in 2019

    Setting aside the s**t sandwiches of injury, what will be the single biggest factor in us improving or at least holding our ground and contending again in 2019? Having a reasonably fit list is a given - I'm thinking more from a personnel/tactical point of view here. For example, if I had to...

    Roast The 0-3 Gang

    I reckon there were a few commentators who tipped against us in every one of our finals games, and got it wrong every time. Can we compile a list?

    Analysis The 2018 premiership is the high point of WC's history

    I’ve been obsessively following the Eagles for 30 years. I was there when we won Grand Finals in 1992 and 1994. I was there when we kicked one goal against Essendon in 1989. I’ve been around. I grew up in Melbourne and then lived in Sydney and then moved abroad. My circumstances have changed...

    Preview Changes for QF v Collingwood

    IN: Kennedy OUT: Allen - unlucky but not sure there's much choice What happens is Jetta is fit? Duggan in trouble?

    Preview Changes R20 v Fremantle

    IN: Shuey, Kennedy OUT: Petruccelle, Waterman Could be persuaded to have another look at Ah Chee and/or Ainsworth. Will Jetta be fit? Apologies for going early but I want to rinse out the taste of that shitty game against North.

    Analysis Mid-season report card

    Overall Well, we’ve clocked up The Decima. What a ride it’s been so far. It’s going to be tough to pinpoint many negatives. However, I’d like to offer a few observations about how we’ve turned it around before going through the list player-by-player. If you run through the factors in our big...

    Prediction Best 22 for 2020

    So for this, I am going to assume we lose all our free agents at the end of 2018 and that no one born before 1990 is still playing. Basically worst-case scenario. Ages in brackets are at January 1, 2020. B: Nelson (23) Barrass (24) Duggan (23) HB: Sheppard (28) Rotham (21) Cole (22) C...

    Prediction Which of our youngsters will end up being the best?

    I've got a list here of the guys who were 22 and younger at the start of 2018. Which of them will end up being the best? I guess it's tricky to compare guys with more exposed form, like Sheed and Duggan, to the likes of Venables or Brander. But there you have it. Vote away.

    Preview Changes for R10 v Hawthorn

    No change unless Yeo is injured. If he's out, Ainsworth back in?

    Analysis Are we better in 2018 than in 2015?

    We made the GF unexpectedly in 2015 and although it's early days in 2018, there does seem to be a top four berth up for grabs. Richmond are the reigning premiers and seem to have improved further - or at least held their ground. But after that, which teams are definitively better than WC? Maybe...
