[EaglesVille]

So once again we get the final game of the round

 

[Mulldogg]

Ah yes the annual game against a competitive early season Gold Coast Suns as opposed to getting them in Round 18 when they’re in the midst of a 6 game losing streak after starting the year brightly.

Getting sick of being beaten or even challenged by Fold Coast.
We need an easier draw if we're to prove we're the best and premiership worthy.

 

[Eastcoasteagle]

This was my exact thoughts, saw the draw and rolled my eyes. We get the Gold Coast when their at their peak, instead of later in the year when their crap.
My other thought was this means we get Brisbane at the Gabba in the last round.
Swap the schedule, give us Brisbane at home first up. Have they even played at Optus?

 

[WCErevival]

Very VFL. Put the interstate games at the end of the round.

 

[DanWCE]

4:40pm Sunday Shove it AFL

 

[squashface]

WC: Give us more primetime blockbuster Saturday night games when we play at home. Optus just hosted the GF so you can see how good it is.
AFL: We hear ya and that sounds great but how about this? Sunday afternoon vs Gold Coast?

 

[Truckosaurus]

West Coast: "Can we have fewer Sunday twilight games so our country members are able to attend?"
AFL:

 

[West Coast 06]

4:40pm Sunday Shove it AFL

Also let’s play in the afternoon in Perth when it’s 35 degrees.
west Coast seriously need to call the AFL out on giving us early season afternoon games knowing the weather here.

 

[southcoast]

Well, with that time slot, that’s one of the home games we won’t be watching.

Getting home around midnight doesn’t compute.

 

[KERRPOW]

Joke of an opponent, timeslot.

The AWFL can shove Late sunday arvos up their VFL arses.

Same here - AFL doing GC a solid by getting their biggest road trip out of the way straight up, leaving us with a trip to the GABBA in one of the round 20s. Bullshit.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Let's be honest, the hugely unconvincing performance against GC in Round 1 this year was a pretty decent indicator of where the side was at (especially mentally). I'm actually pleased we're getting them again. Very much hoping we come out and make a statement with a big win. Anything less will have me concerned about a repeat season in the nether-zone.

 

[WCE_phil]

Sick of the ****ing timeslot and what it means for 6 day breaks and opponents having a larger break than us for games. I dont give a **** who the opponent is. To ease travel burden for both ourselves and freo we should start the season on a friday, go into our bye on a sunday evening, come out of our bye on a thursday like normal and finish the season on a sunday.

Above all else, opponents, playing at the G etc. This is the single biggest factor in our fixture. It's all about recovery.

 

[Lost In The Sky]

Had an absolute gutfull of the 4:40pm timeslot... the joke is getting old.

 

[Rowan18]

On the funny side, this is the third season in a row we get to start with a home game. Freo fans must be spewing.

 

[FKASC]

Eagles to win by 9 points after trailing at half time by 21.

 

[Smotie2]

Ah yes the annual game against a competitive early season Gold Coast Suns as opposed to getting them in Round 18 when they’re in the midst of a 6 game losing streak after starting the year brightly.

If we can't beat gold coast at home round 1 we don't deserve to play finals.

Reckon we win by 10 goals though.

 

[Smeg Head]

Well thats a trash fixture to start the year, as normal we get the last game which sucks to watch as well as cramming our season into the smallest window possible.

 

[Hai_Newman]

Booked into Crown Towers, will get on the beers in the pool and stroll down later.
Keep up the sh*te fixturing AWFL.

 

[kaiserchief13]

How about getting Gold Coast when they are shit for once? Last 3 years played them in either rd 1 or rd 2. It's absolute ****ing bullshit

 

[Carbine Chaos]

How about getting Gold Coast when they are sh*t for once? Last 3 years played them in either rd 1 or rd 2. It's absolute ******* bullshit

Who cares when we play them, we should beat them easily if we want to be taken seriously.

They are up and about every single year in first month of season competing with every team in the league. After that they fold and lose games by 60+ regularly.

2019: Started season 3-1
2020: Started season 3-1
2021: Started season 1-3, but lost 3 games by 25, 10 and 11 points. won their game by 59

Again, who cares. Control what we can control.
