Is West Coast Eagles 2018 Premiership win the best in the history of Football? Can they go Back to Back in Season 2019? Or Will complacency set in?

Yep, no time to really celebrate yet, but I'm going to continue believing it's possible until it's not.

We thumped them a couple of weeks ago
Then they thump the Bombers which is very unfortunate indeed for those at Windy Hill and a bit of a waste of a finals campaign in reality which no doubt they will learn from
Still - you never know re WC

They thumped youse
None of the past 3 flags winners had a 'back to back' vibe to them, you can just tell.
Tiges could very well win 2 in 3 years, which is awesome, but still not as great an achievement or as prestigious as back to back.
Again, it just goes to show how insanely ridiculously difficult it is to achieve, let alone 3 in a row!

Thought last month Eagles seemed to be back in the zone but then Hawks flogged them in that final match
They are a good side West Coast but this year was your classic post premiership season. Flashes of brilliance and then off the boil not just across games but within them.
With NicNat back to full fitness next year they are a top 4 team for sure

Collingwood and Geelong supporters need to thank Hawthorn for their fortunes?
Certainly Collingwood benefitted. Not sure we as much

They would have had to beat us at the G anyway. And they couldn't. If we played them in the Granny they would have travelled a week after a Prelim at Optus.
They weren't good enough when it mattered and we were better. Clear as day.

Sadly yes, not our year we were well and truly beaten. Need to work on improving for next year

The usual post premiership slump continue. Every year after we win the flag we always have a form drop

haven't read previous 20 pages of tripe.

Not the best but not the worst premiership defence.
I hope this year spurs them on to go up another level and actually string four quarters together more consistently. We saw glimpses but in the end 5th was an accurate reflection of where we were at. Having Naitanui play more than 20 games would be an immense help while we are still in the window.
Onwards to 2020.

The Dogs had only lost 2 more games than Sydney, though, it wasn't really as a big contrast, it's more remarkable they did it without the double chance, though, but I'd probably put Hawthorn's 2008 victory as more of a shocker considering their opponent.
Drug cheat in the team
Caught with a masking substance
Another asterisk flag., so NO

2017 Richmond takes the cake. 13th to premiers the next year is the record. It was also a 37 year drought breaker for a big club that was in shambles and kick started a dynasty.
People weren’t predicting us to make the 8 and said we needed to start a rebuild again instead of getting Nank, Prestia and Caddy lol. Lids who was one of our best players jumped ship to GWS cause he had no belief either. People were saying Hardwick should get the sack and Cotchin should relinquish his captaincy.
