Dive into the game discussion

 

[stallon]

Eagles by 46

 

[PCORF]

Suns by 99 points.

 

[Wosh]

Eagles by a lot.


Shut up.

 

[Forward Press]

Eagles by 46

I'd like what you're smoking.

 

[schmuttt]

Why the AFL gave the Eagles this fixture first up I have NFI, unless of course the Eagles requested it (Which would make sense considering the travel).

 

[timokane]

Suns by 6 goals easy by say 37 points lets say

 

[flyinghi64]

PERCENTAGE BOOSTER

 

[JackFlash]

Suns by 90 points...

 

[Scotland]

Suns don't play a real opponent until Gather Round. Will be 4-0 150-200%.

At one stage the Suns were up 18 goals to 4 vs Geelong so I can't see any scenario where this isn't at least a 10 goal win.

 

[THE_GUN]

What would happen if the eagles just didnt turn up and had the week off ?
GC get the 4 points

might be an option for both the Eagles & Tigers

I think we do prefer the longest trip in the comp in round 1 tbh

 

[Barrybran]

Please be gentle, Gold Coast

 

[Cam Payne]

Going by all the talk about town WC are a big sniff here. Still can't see them getting past GC up there.

What town is that, LaLa town?

 

[Wosh]

Please be gentle, Gold Coast

I think we’ll be sitting on inflatable donuts for a week, Baz.

 

[Toump Ass]

Harley reid has embarrassed flog Petracca before I think he'll do it again this week.

 

[Mighty Eagles]

This is pretty much the best midfield v the worst midfield.

I can't see how we (WC) get within 10 goals of them. We need some of the Suns' midfield cream to miss with soreness.

Remember, Tigers beat Suns last year? No game is easy.

Having said that this game could also turn out to be 100+ if Suns can repeat the first 3 quarters performance against Cats.

Opening round game under belt is a big advantage in conditioning bodies.

 

[Cam Payne]

What town is that, LaLa town?

Perth it was, so yeah pretty much. SportFM and Muddy Waterman was my sauce.

 

[woosha24]

If we manage to keep it to less than a 50pt loss it would be a huge effort, and if Old Man Yeo avoids sustaining injury in a hiding-to-nothing match it'll be a miracle.

My vote is that we employ the ol' Ross Lyon Special and send the gumby WAFL brigade over, get flogged, go home and prep for Round 2.

 

[voorhees]

good luck to the eagles
your going to need it

You're next, mate. Likewise.

 

[Wosh]

I'd like what you're smoking.

All Eagles supporters should hide in this thread and pass the doobie.
What we don’t see can’t hurt us. And if we do see it we won’t care, we’ll just want pizza and chocolate.

 

[The Gtrain]

Hopefully lots of rain, reducing the scoring, otherwise its going to get ugly.
