Game Day Eagles v Blues

[Rowan18]

Their form, while better, is still deceptive.

Freo were flogging them and went to sleep. Win

Brisbane were flogging them and went to sleep. Win

Melbourne were flogging them and went to sleep. Tight loss

Bulldogs were flogging them and went to sleep. Tight loss

Gold Coast. Nothing needs to be said

Crows. Their best win, but let’s be honest. Pyke dropped some of their better players and they aren’t even trying right now.

Swans. Good win, but Swans are also bottom 4 and horribly out of form (lost last 4).

If our mindset is right this could be ugly. Has wake up call for the Blues all over it

100% agree. Norf were riding a similar hype train as well, until we derailed it last week.

How much would we need to win by to overtake Geelong? I can dream right?

About 35 goals should do it

 

[sedders]

Oh and by the way

 

[Priddis Is Done]

Nervous poo no 1

Hiya Eagles.
Was gonna say best of luck except today, cos I have tipped you for premiers again. I enjoy watching your team play. Admittedly reading a few of the last posts I was a bit put off...not real wins...thrash us by 35 goals etc. ok ...love your confidence!
I'm not expecting a win from us but am hoping for a great contest. Will always love Josh Kennedy.
Cheers.

My supercomputer tells me that if we win 216-20 We overtake Geelong (fairly reasonable scores).

Let's 196 these bitches.

 

[The wily weagle]

Ha, more like the one they gave away. He does realise they actively threw him on the trade table doesn't he?

That's not entirely true, they did put Kennedy up for trade...........but very, very reluctantly.

Many people involved with Carlton at the time have gone on record and pretty much said the said thing: they were absolutely desperate to get Judd to the club and if it had of been pretty much any other player in the league, they would have said no to the trade and Kennedy would have been retained.

And now that the dust has settled, that is a trade that we won.

It's Gaming day glitches!
Apparently the Blues are plotting to take us down!? With run and stun!
This promises to be a hot game, hope we're switched on?
The mercurial Dorkers have beaten the Pussycat Dolls-
we have to look at Lyons smug face all over the TV.
But it opens a door for us, more incentive hopefully.
NO UPSET PLEASE EAGLES!? Bring home the bacon!
(no injuries)

 

[the harry]

Just gives you confidence we'll be okay with him in the side

 

[wce4premiership]

Excited for this one.

One would think that being under the roof would suit our style of gameplay?

Either way, hope the boys come out and make a statement, because the last time we had such an opportunity to attack for top two, we lost to the Pies in a game where we ran out of legs.

Expecting some manic pressure from Carlton early.

Hoping our lads are expecting this as well and weather the early storm.

Agreed that roof closed should benefit our style.

35 goals is a bit much.

Maybe 20 tops

To be fair, I did visit the Blues board earlier in the week and everyone seemed to think they could beat us. Nothing wrong with fans thinking their team can win.

The 35 goals was to do with what we would need to win by to overtake Geelong on the ladder.

Hoping for a good game, no injuries and a win to West Coast.

 

[jooce8891]

hoping for a ripper game, eagles one of my favourite teams to watch, just hoping its not a thrashing and no injuries to either side
good luck guys

 

[Doughboy]

Get up, it’s game day

They chose Pick 1 and Kruezer over JK. They’d change that if they had their time over

 

[Biggie]

Yep

 

[squashface]

Pepper your Angus

 

[Gaffy Duck]

Yep

I’ve never heard of him but kudos

Don't worry about those guys. They're just warming up so they can melt properly in the game-day thread later today when it's close. A proper meltdown requires good mental preparation, and there's no effort spared in these parts.

We were heavily into cotchin at the time. I dare say we would have picked him if we had the no 1 pick
