These guys weren't even tipped to make the 8 pre-season. Mitchell and Priddis gone meant a lot of experience, as well as Brownlow medals went out the window. The most important and influential player for WCE, and one of if not the best ruckmen in the comp goes down injured in Nit Nat. Gaff, an ALL-Australian and a bloke that was tipped to be runner up in the Brownlow misses a lot of football due to his punch on the young Freo lad. And Sheppard, a player who emerged the last few years as one of the key defenders in the game goes down in the first qualifier against Collingwood. 5 goals down in the first quarter, the ghosts of 2015 re-visited, a host of missed chances late on yet they still find a way to win despite all of this. Balls of steel and a mind like no other. I think this win is as good as the Doggies in 2016 and as good as any other premiership in the history of VFL/AFL.
West Coast Eagles - Could not be beaten. Mentality of a warrior.
Was this the best win or the most hardest for any side to obtain in the history of footy?
Edited - Since the West Coast Eagles great triumph over Collingwood 6 months ago, they again loom as one of, if not, THE Favourites of them all. Amazing depth, great structure, impeccable game plan and a masterclass Coach. The Eagles have what it takes to once again be on the big stage in the final day of the 2019 AFL Calendar.
It's not a question if they can go back to back. Because we all know they're capable. The main question that needs answering is,
Will the Eagles go Back to Back in Season 2019?
