Oh by the way, the cheating umpires has been confirmed by the AFL. Since Rd 14, no WA umpires have done WCE games, free kick counts in last two games to Rd 14 - WCE 33-17, Rd 12 - 25-12. Then after WA umpires removed - Rd 16 - 20-20, Rd 18 - 19-17. That's conclusive to me.

This could be a ten goal flogging... hoping we are competitive at least.
Hey Freo fans,
I've started a banter thread on our board, feel free to drop by for some quality discussion: https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/western-derby-48-banter-thread.1200608/

The AFL is to be commended for taking unofficial action in regards to the WCE free kick discrepency. Since the bias lies towards West Coast (and their action in removing WA umpires from WCE games but not FFC games implies that they acknowledge this) rather than towards WA then this weekend's derby should also be officiated by interstate umpires.
Shout out to @George_Bigfooty for generating an easy to read 2003-2018 free kick differential table that contributed to the media and general public's understanding of the problem.
That being said, 2 games with the interstate umpires is not enough to draw any conclusions.
The Eagles have lost 4 of their last seven , They are a side that has some genuine A graders But once any are missing or not playing well , They look pretty average .They have some honest foot soldiers and some that are just ordinary .I think we will lose only because we are missing some of our A graders as well .
And we have less of them .We are relying on our kids in the midfield too much , And the forward line is just not functioning .

Filthy *in scummy campaigners. They will never erase that image and they shouldn't. Somehow I still hate them more than Essendon... quite the feat.
An infamously wrecked drug addict, someone who starts fire fun, coke overdoses, drug dealers, flat lining in Vegas, hanging out with bikies, the true modern oddity of whatever Daniel Chick's issue is now, the fact the most 'normal' ones are flogs who sell beads in Bali or hang around amateur training sessions wanting to be asked to impart wisdom... ahhh, the bloke who put his fingers in his ears and is culpable and implicated still calling the shots (and no one says anything about it?).
Beady eyed, bogans like Masten-bator with his bad kicks and stupid waddle slagging off Freo before Grand Finals, everyone fawning over 'Nic Nat' (he isn't that good, his tackles are incredibly dangerous, half his marks are in the backs), how we're supposed to think Gaff is good... my lord. How I somehow like McGovern and Kennedy is a bonafide miracle.
The members – the way you see them going to games and they're all about 65 and getting on at Claremont in their bad jeans and stiff new caps. The champagne crowd, the ugly merch and shocking colours, the bad bomber jackets, the way they act in Melbourne... the fact they're the magnet for the clueless, the dumb, the over the top, the 'that's a freeeeeee,' the way they rely on some dumb joke about premierships, their misplaced arrogance, the fact they make Crows fans look sophisticated...
Bad club.

10/10 rant, would read again.
See - when you focus your hatred for the benefit of all, greatness is the result.

What is it with West Coast fans wearing their club colours around Melbourne on a weekday or attending matches on the weekend all kitted up in eagles merch whilst their club plays in Perth later that day. I saw a full kit w***er at Etihad when freo played Carlton earlier this year - you flat out just look like a spanner.
I don't get it.

Eagles have a few outs from last derby. Could be interesting:
Eagles:
OUT: Nicnat, The other Josh Kennedy, Dean Margetts, Jeff Dalgleish
IN: TBC

The last two going hurt most.
I'm a bit worried their ins will cover those outs pretty well
IN : noise of affirmation and the echo of entitlement

Nathan Williamson definitely has one of them covered. But I don't think Shaun Ryan or Andrew Stephens comes close to covering for either Margetts or Dalgleish.
Collingwood and Port will be barracking for a massive upset.

Don't think we will beat them by quite that much. Maybe 4-5 goals if our new forward line functions ok.

No wonder we beat them nearly half the time..
We are just not playing as well as we were earlier in the season . Kids are getting tired maybe a lot has been asked of them . Can't see us winning this one .
My other prediction is that regardless of tomorrows result WC will not play in the GF. Other results have really favoured them during their form slump of three wins four losses out of the last seven . But that luck will eventually run out. As it did for us in 2015.
