    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.

    2nds West Coast Eagles WAFL Watch 2024

    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...

    Therein lies the problem!

    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.

    Game Day Round 3, 2024: West Coast vs Western Bulldogs

    The thing I can’t understand as to why they extended his contract last time as the signs were already there that Simmo was not the answer!

    Yes I noticed that last week as well - not good enough as why bust your gut out and then get ignored!

    Game Day Round 3, 2024: West Coast vs Western Bulldogs

    A different voice could help though as looking from outside in it just looks like the playing group as a whole have stopped listening to Simmo - and the question has to be asked are they being coached correctly. Some players have gone backwards under Simmo’s watch and you have to ask why? When...

    In other words we need a good coach lol.

    Game Day Round 3, 2024: West Coast vs Western Bulldogs

    A lot of negative Nancy’s on here - I’ve actually tipped us to lose by about 54 points by games end as that’s just where we’re at the moment - until some of these younger players get more games under their belt. As there’s no doubt the younger players will get overawed at times at this stage...

    Coach Adam Simpson Megathread est. 2017 - Skip to 2024

    One just has to wonder how we got this bad (injuries aside) considering we won a flag in 2018. It’s okay to slide but to slide this bad beggars belief. I just can’t help but think this lies at the feet of Simmo and his style of coaching. 😟

    Autopsy Round 1, 2024: Positives and Negatives vs Port Adelaide

    What about Cripps as think he still adds value to the side for a goal or two.

    News Media Thread, 2024: Insightful, Inciteful and Incomptent

    I can only presume Allen was still recovering from his bout of Gastro - Darling looked underdone as saw him gasping for air on a couple of occasions, presumable due to having been out with his Hammy has put him behind the 8ball.

    You mustn’t have been reading the correct papers as the West here and also many journalists were full of it.

    Preview Eagles and Dockers 2024 Preview

    I don’t believe it’s so much the club but the media (West Australian) who seem besotted by him. Anyone with half a brain would know he’s only a kid and more than likely it will take him time to adjust to the tempo of AFL.

    Game Day Preseason Scrimmage -West Coast v Fremantle, Sat 24/2 : Let the melts begin

    75% got injured? A bit of an exaggeration I would say as from what I heard there was only Ginbey (concussion) and then Hough possibly although the Club said post match it was only cramp.

    flggr BREAKING NEWS: Kardinia Park's state-of-the-art new stand to be named the 'JOEL SELWOOD STAND', forever immortalising the captain. OUR captain.

    Far too soon for that in my opinion. Maybe in 10 years time but a bit ridiculous to be naming anything after a player who hasn’t long been retired - champion that he was.
