Almost looking forward to fogarty play his standard blinda against us and overtake jez Cameron in the coleman

I remember a game sometime ago against the Crows at Subiaco. I went to the game and thought we would be comprehensively beaten as they were near the top of the table. Woos ha was coaching and we were pretty ordinary. I was a bit late so imagine my surprise when I get in the ground and we were around 4 goals up. We went on to win well. I think that was the day Woosha introduced the handball game. Will history repeat?






Probably not

The only difference here is the cupboard is bare...

Thilthorpe is their best Coleman hope, if he kicks 31 today he'll be level with JC

But thats not what I'm looking forward to

Graham/Brock/Flynn are some good ins

1. get to 50 pts
2. be in touch at halftime to avoid a 120+ shellacking
3. avoid injuries/suspensions/despair for Dogs away next week

regardless our disgrace should be well hidden. We’ll either be the third belting of the day (into Bounce), or the Giants (narrow win/failed percentage boost) & Dogs (a scare in Chaplin’s first game) will provide the bigger stories.

hopefully the Pies & Lions losing takes the edge off the Crows. None of the teams near them (including Freo/Suns) have been formidable this weekend. Perfect conditions for a just enough performance.

still the leading goal kicker intrigue with Cripps (21) & Ryan (19) too.

Is this a worse lineup than what we put out in that infamous '22 top up game?

At least those guys showed some intent and the right attitude. Let's hope our guys can do the same today. Show something, anything.

I'm not expecting a win, but please don't embarrass us anymore.

WC by 1 Aaron Black goal

 

[Cuzz09]

Upset of the millennium today. Let's go

Eagles by 5 points

WC 12.0.72
Adelaide 1.61.67

How far we've fallen when those names are good ins.

'Farewell Day' seems oddly appropriate.

Nah, reckon we'll 'keep it' to around 10 goals. Hate feeling so negative about footy at the moment. Might go for a drive instead and see if I'm back for the game or not.

Hope Sheed and Gov get a good crowd, I'm sure they will.

Loving the Flynn & BBBW merry go round.

Er… just a question; how much Vaseline is too much Vaseline ?

Stopped bothering watching after the Richmond game. Looking forward to round 1 next March.

 

[Byron_Clanger]

I assume this game will go like most of our home games this season. The first quarter's a complete smashing then the opp plays self preservation mode for the rest of the game..though the Crows have no qualms about running up the scoreboard so the stench of the 80+ is upon us.

 

[Shuestar13]

Thanks for keeping us informed. See you then.

 

[timeforanother22]

In a box today, there is a God.

 

[WCErevival]

Need to keep it under 87. That's our worst loss so far for the year.

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

Today Ive began a new tradition that im calling the Owies Wowie.

Every game he is picked from here on in im putting 20 dollars on Owies to kick the first goal of the match.

Today he is at 25/1.

I believe in you Matthew

 

[Astro7]

Last time we met, got done by 66 points, with Waterman in the side! Oh, and I think we had that other guy in the midfield too?
Anyway, hope it's a great send off for Gov and Sheed, and the crowd give them a deservedly rousing send off!

 

[Ace McKane]

Dan Curtin almost a certainty to go for 35 and 3 today

Side chasing percentage vs a side counting down until Bali. Oh boy.

Brock kept him goal less I think earlier in the year…

He’ll do the business for you today, I can feel it. Knows the pressure is on, Alex Pearce (four goals) is closing in on his season tally (six), so he’ll step up.

 

[Bender_]

That's it for me for the year, lads. I'm only coming back to post AFLW Eagles stuff but as far as the mens side goes I'm scorched.

Catch everyone come finals time

That's not bad. At those odds, I'd be pretty comfortable in Owies getting it done evetually.

I don't think we're going to be playing finals, sorry.
