Hawkins and Cameron to kick 12 between them.

JK and JD to kick 12 between them.

Unfortunately it will be 12 goals to the Geelong pair and 1 goal 6 to the WC duo.

 

[Spange]

Call me crazy but I genuinely think there’s a good chance we are going to kick it down the wing out of our defensive 50

Sorry to jump in this thread but there's always a possibility for half of cats squad to catch gastro from dodgy prawns while in Perth.

Also then there's the bye curse, either way I don't think it will be as bad as everyone expects.

So you're saying we either have to poison your mob or rely on a fairytail? I feel so much better, cheers Bro.

You need to see west coast play in the wet. I fully expect it to be as bad or worse than people expect.

Now with selection it looks like we will try and run the wings and get as many stoppages as possible.

Expect Stewart to destroy us.

Where did they eat the dodgy prawns? Crown? I have seen Hawkins at Rock Pool - in thongs the bum. Name & shame bro!

Can not wait to see the “mark the ball on the wing, kick it backward a few times and comes back to where it originally came from for a boundary throw in”. Who doesn’t get excited with these plays?

 

[Eastcoasteagle]

Nek minute lines up on the ball, never change West Coast. hahaha

It's Be Game Day! Or at least try to be halfway engaged in this game?
The Eagles could be half a chance in the wet, which is better than no chance at all.
A home game, Optus, gathered the old legends around for a gee-up, arguably fielding our best team of the season, even Schoey has tipped us?
Okay, in the cold and the wet it could be an ugly groundhog day, but on paper we have the troops to cause an upset, it's just a matter of heart and will in the absence of skill?
It's the first game I've been halfway interested in for weeks and looks to have a heartbeat!?
(rewatched the round 4 Pies game out of desperation, ah the glory days!)
C'mon Eagles! (by 16 points)

Cold, wet, windy. Ugh

Cats have just woken up at home

Predicting a 67 point loss as we continue to try and play that semblance of a game plan in these conditions, leading to sloppy turnovers and walk in goals

I want Williams out for Clark late change for some grunt, but would then require a coach to play him in position. Want to keep Jami in as he's shown some good attack on the ball.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

I reckon we’re half a chance today, provided the Cats are a little bit cocky.

Eagles by 7.

I checked out in April.

Glad we are pumping games into young defenders.

They should see a lot of it today.

Sorry to jump in this thread

Welcome! Me too. You'll fit in here.

 

[ioppolo]

95-35 or some scoreline of that nature given the conditions.
Won't be a pretty game, won't be an entertaining game.
Not much to see today.

 

[bzparkes]

Bring lube.

 

[Danger Zone]

My partner and I have a long layover in Perth today and we were thinking of getting tickets to the game (cheering for the Eagles over the Vic bastards, obviously).

I'm not too familiar with the stadium, what would be the best area for undercover seats? Don't want to get drenched right before a long flight.

Good luck today!

First thing we should make Tom Stewart accountable down back.

Yes, we should play Waterman or Darling on him as they ensure all defenders are accountable by playing man on man football.

Just buy any seat, the ground will have so many seats with no one in attendance that you can sit anywhere.

Last time I was there it was packed, so I wasn't sure how easy that would be to do.
