ROUND 12 BYES : Brisbane * Saint Kilda * Sydney * Fremantle

​

 

[Zevon]

Really comes down to how far the Magpies want to win by. They’ve been cruising a bit the last couple of weeks rather than really burying sides. They don’t really need percentage so I wonder if they’ll just cruise to a solid but not massive win again here.

If they turn up wanting blood then it could get really ugly but I just don’t see why they would. 4 points, no injuries, then back on the plane.

 

[JackFlash]

Pies will just use this game as a training run and win by about 70points

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

Difficult to see the Eagles winning a quarter.

Pies by a truckload.

 

[PieLebo87]

If Sunday was anything to go by, this will be another snoozefest.

 

[SuperSub17]

Never thought I’d see the day we were $1.03 favourites over there. We’ve only ever beaten West Coast in Perth six times—three of those were by 1 point, and a fourth was a final that went to extra time. I’m struggling to even think of a game we were favourites at all.

You reminded me of Round 9 2005.

Eagles top of the ladder and undefeated facing a bottom placed Pies who were 1-7.

Guess what happened there?

I was there that day, that crossed my mind as well. We stormed over the top in the end, in fact we won our next couple as well (including Geelong who was second at the time).

Another fun fact: after taking the lead against Carlton last year, and our win against Port in round 2 tied things up—West Coast are now the only team we have a negative H2H against.

Orrrr...get blood, 4 points, no injuries then back on the plane. I mean it's an option.

 

[bzparkes]

Pretty sure the game in Melbourne last year was expected to go the same way...

 

[Notoneeyedpie]

Do not take this game for granted , wce are a big chance , i smell big upset trust me seen this all before

 

[Toump Ass]

Big upset incoming. Put your house on it friends!

Hope the Pies smash the entitled Flogs !

Can't believe how much free real estate we get

Can't believe how much free real estate we get

Triggered badly.

You do know this is a Pies v Eagles game day thread?

 

[Monco Matt]

We have been "cruising" somewhat lately in our winning margins I suppose. But if there is one club that we still want to beat and beat badly it is the WCE (for obvious reasons). If we are going to severely crush a team it will be them. I think we will go after a huge win this time.

Pies by 114 points.

 

[Monco Matt]

True! But it's fair to say that both teams have taken different pathways since then and are playing vastly different football. If you think the result will be the same put a gorilla on it and setup your retirement fund.

 

[Sweeetleftfoot]

I suspect it will be around 4 to 6 goals. Pies just doing enough to keep the eagles at bay.

Jamie Elliot out this week with a shoulder, willing to bet if this was the KB game, he'd be playing.

I'm going to the game and not expecting an out and out annihilation, but a 'comfortable' win.

I'm more than certain the Pies are 'managing'

No I don't think so, it'd be the 3 local enemy clubs they'd want to beat badly, and it seems this season aren't interested in 'wanna beat this team more than others' - that's for us tribes in the outer. The team has bigger fish to fry, all opposition is just, well opposition to defeat.

I've got no doubt in my mind, that this team, are 'managing' and not going balls out at 11/10ths to go the jugular. They'll win, by how much, time will tell.

Their main aim is just to qualify, as Fly alluded, as high as possible, and this is probably the way to do that.

Some might look at our less than convincing wins like last week and come to the conclusion or question, 'I don't think they're that good?'. I don't reckon they're anywhere near potential at the minute and they'll hit the nitrous button at the pointy end of the season.

While it'd be nice to hand out a smashing, keeping reserve and focus on the big picture while simultaneously keeping focus on the next game will have better reward at the end of the year.

I bet you like to pop balloons at children's parties!

Its big club / small club syndrome.

They are always thinking of us.

We think about them the week we are playing them.

Will do it so easily they may as well play blindfolded

WE CANT SMASH TEAMS , WE DONT HAVE THE FORWARD LINE TO DO THAT SORT OF THING
