Game Day Round 7, 2024: West Coast vs Gold Coast

[6285sutto]

I put a $10 bet on at the start of the season that we would win our first game today. Glad the Weagles proved me wrong the last two weeks and hoping they can make it three on the trot

Probably been said but IF WE WIN TODAY we move up to 12th

 

[RookiePick]

If the boys bring the intensity of the last few weeks we are every chance.

Big opportunity for several players to show they have developed and are up to speed with the program.

Actually winning by 10 goals will bring WCE to the 11th position jumping above the GCS.

I preferred it when we had no expectations of winning to be honest. Saying, on a public forum, that we could win? Feels like we are summonsing some form of demonic footy god to rise up and strike us back down.

I think the last few years have given me PTSD. Or I have actually turned into Cuzz09

I'm actually really looking forward to this game- great opportunity to show we are a solid team without Harley boy! Let's go 'The Boy' and Chess and Snake,Maric, BBBBW and Houghenator! Oh and Yeoy, TK, Mclovin and Crippa to settle the lads down and keep calm. Bring the intensity and we'll be ok!

What’s the weather look like? Any rain?

It has just started belting down, but the radar says it should pass in 30mins max. Ground may be a little damp at the start but should dry out (potentially 1 more passing shower a bit later - but mostly dry)

Could use this opportunity to put chesser in the middle.

Sheed can be on the wing

 

[Eaglemaniac]

I’m one of those who thinks Harley has inspired our senior players to fire up and given our junior players confidence to take the game on, so I think we will revert to pre-Harley form and lose this game by a bit.
The period before our lord and saviour joined the club shall be forever known as PH (Pre-Harley).

If we only lose by 30 pts , that’d be some kind of win ..

Having no expectations is the key to life

Flyin' to be the sub? Chess?

Sprinkling rain at the ground now, shouldn't last long however.

Brief lines of showers coming in from the coast, quite heavy at times, but about an hour in between sets.

Otherwise weather is clear and the sun and wind are acting to dry things out quickly.


Game should be pretty dry during the first half from the looks of it, any rain arriving during the second half could be telling.

Wind currently looks to be a bigger issue for the game at the moment, gusting over 40km/h.

That ball bounce by I think Maric in the background....

 

[UseR2006]

And Sheed is confirmed as the Sub

 

[random260]

What the * simmo we need to blood Sheed. He's the youngest of our midfield younger then Kelly

 

[Cuzz09]

I was gonna say I'm happy for Sheed to run one way if he can hit the scoreboard. Kick 3 all good

Eagles website has a photo of Darling pissing. Hopefully that’s not an omen that it’s going to be pissing with rain.

Or maybe Darling is asserting his dominance on this fixture. Fingers crossed.

Why did they even post that video? Looks like a local amateur team getting ready.

Look, i'm not complaining, We usually get no content so the fact they are trying is a positive ok.
