Man I'm weak and easy to convince when it comes to a positive eagles comment.
Could have 1 million people telling me we are going to be average this year and only 1 person needed to say hey we got not a bad team and will contend.
Straight away I'm like hang on I like what this one person is saying. I think we got not a bad team and will contend this year.
Screw the million people.

Not as much as BigBirdz
Definitely hoping to see demondavey around these parts next preseason. Have to admit when I first saw this thread I thought you had come to troll, how wrong I was. Congrats on an epic prediction.
This guy, is a ****ing genius.Good Morning,
Yes that's my thread title and where I think the Eagles could be headed this year. There won't be many people on the MB agreeing with me, but I feel that you have a list almost ready to explode if things can click. I'll give you my reasons.
KPP - Elite. JK, Darling, McGovern, NN, Lycett, Vardy, McKenzie and Schofield comprise a very capable group. Agreed they all won't play together, but there is depth.
Midfield - This is where I think you're underrated. Shuey, Gaff, Cripps and Yeo put a very good quartet together. I am not sure how Sheed, Redden, Rioli, Venables, Jetta, Hutchings and Karpany are tracking, but there are some players there that I really rate.
The question - Your interstate plan. You start improving that and I think you'll gain unstoppable momentum. I think the key to that is Sam Mitchell coaching alongside Simpson. I reckon he has the ability to assist in breaking down the mental barriers to getting on a plane and transferring your game.
Your finals record is good.
2012 = 5th
2013 = 13th
2014 = 9th
2015 = Grand Finalists
2016 = 6th
2017 = 8th
If Richmond can roll into a premiership off the back of finals in 13-15, I reckon your list is more than capable of going the extra mile or two this year.
I'd like to know your thoughts, I seriously think WC have the capability of doing it this year.

I actually think Cripps would have been a very good tagger. But have to lol at thisCripps probably could be used in the middle as a tagger. Consign Hutchings to the WAFL for good
The irony of that particular statement is that Mitchell left, at least in part, because of the challenges of the grind of constant travel.
Was down at Geelong yesterday. Watched you closely. There’s some big upside in that Eagles outfit. They were very good in the second half. Not sure if Geelong took the foot off but they did make a lot of errors due to Eagles pressure.
