Prediction Changes v WCE elimination final

[compact72]

Why aren't we allowed to train on the ground?

Because of the "late arrival"

 

[Dogs 13]

We seriously can't train on the ground? What massive BS on top of the fact it's a Thursday game stoping many fans from being able to make the trip.

The entire club at every level from the senior team, the VFL team, the supporters, the TV audience has been shafted by this decision to play on a Thursday night.
Furthest to travel, a match during the week to make it impossible for many supporters to travel to, players having to be held back from a VFL final in case they’re needed for the AFL team on Thursday if certain injured players don’t come up, a much too late start of 8.10pm on a work/school night. And now we can't even train at their ground.

Seriously the AFL couldn’t have got this more wrong. If they had to have a Thursday it should have been two teams from the same city or the Adelaide/North game, they love Thursdays over there and less travel for North.

Totally agree!

Will make the victory all that much sweeter.

WCE are deserving favourites, but we shouldn't be as rank underdogs as we are

I would think our odds of $4.50 will come in abit once out ins are announced ?

Must be. Those names on paper suggest we've got a better midfield and ruck division and if I've ever seen a final in my life I know that beating the other team around the pill helps you win.

The fitness of these names earns an asterisk, but they're still to be considered

Like Sydney v GWS perhaps?

Moz is itching
I'm itching
The dogs are itching

Bring on thursday!!!!

You've all got fleas!

WCE not letting us train on Subiaco are just 'bad sports'. It sounds like school yard language but 'bad sports' are against everything that sport is supposed to be about. It's a reflection on them as a club and as people. We never have to become like that. I love our club and the people (supporters, players like Moz, coaches like Bev etc) and the culture that it exudes even against all the odds over all the years. WCE hang your heads in shame.

 

[Doggy]

Ahh wet scrote supporters. "Dogs have only lost one game by over 5 goals. Wet toast by 33points"

Bunch of complete tossers

It is a known fact that Eagles are no match against flea biten rabid mangy dogs. They'll take one look at us and fly away for easier prey next season. Very selective birds them eagles. They prefer easier prey like swans.

What on earth makes you think West Coast have any say in whether or not you can have a run on Subi oval?

5.10 at Betfair if any of us want to have a wager. Should come in once the Ins are official, worth checking an hour before the bounce.

 

[Bulldog Brent]

Stevo just tweeted. Five ins definitely.

They'd be Stringer Wood Rough Libba & Macrae.

who are the outs?

Minson, Williams, Koby.... I've got Hrovat and Jong as the last two

[bresker]

Someone dropped $50,000 on the Eagles with Sportsbet and all the money continues to come their way.

I hope a lot of over-confident punters will be wetting their panties deep in the 4th quarter. Even if we don't win I expect a show. Our midfield is excellent and built for finals footy.

 

[fronkalicious]

Stevo hinting we'll go small in defence. Love that idea. Drop Roberts with wood back. Morris to kennedy and hamling to darling.

 

[Golden_6]

Yeah I think it's almost a certainty we will go in smaller with Wood/Biggs playing on their resting ruckman. Back to trying to run teams off their feet!

In: Wood, Libba, Macrae, Roughy, String
Out: Minson, Williams, Koby, Roberts, Rat/Smith

Love McLean in and take both of Rat and Smith out but won't be happening.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

I'm pretty certain one of Hamling or Roberts will miss. Roberts/Hamling, Morris, Wood, Biggs, Boyd, Johannisen and Suckling will be enough in defence. Got to play small down back, get the ball to the ground and just run in out. Biggs will probably need to play on the resting ruck to try and allow Wood to play loose.

Stoked that it looks like those 5 are certain ins. I'm hoping McLean and Campbell are chances to come in as well, although it sounds like Campbell only plays if Rough or Boyd don't get up.

 

[Dogsman16]

Harsh cal but I think Dunkley shouldn't be in the team this week.

Has had a great taste and shown good signs but I think his iffy ball use means I'd prefer Hrovat.

 

[Dogsman16]

If Hamling is dropped I will rage.
