Always a chance, think they've beaten them the last 3 times at the SCG havent they? Dew always saves his best for his former club.

I tipped gc for this very reason. I think they beat them in gc last year but my mind goes back to 2018 when gc were dog shit but absolutely smashed Sydney after quarter time, when it looked like Sydney by how far. May absolutely dominated that game.

Talking about 2018 I felt James harmes had a break our finals series seem to come out of nowhere. Hopefully a few of our youngsters will do that to. Bowey had second year blues reckon he'll have a breakout season this year.

Bowey and Rivers will both have breakout seasons if we tell them to break lines and be bold with their ball movement.

Nothing like NM vs West Coast to put the doomsaying into perspective

 

[Headless]

Does anyone else reckon Gold Coast are a chance against the Swans?

Recent form against them is actually pretty good

For sure.

Yep, these 2 and Sparrow have a lot of scope to improve I reckon. We need more goals from Spargo, ANB and now Chandler.

 

[Crusty Demon]

Sheezel will be a star

 

[MarcMaverick]

Tell you what, if the Roos pull this one off, the seat under Adam Simpson will be very toasty to nuclear after this.

Both teams are bottom 4 though. Away from home as well.

Nah, even if it was in Perth the Eagles would still struggle. Even the noise of affirmation wouldn't help as much

 

[Jamurp]

Yeah Adam Simpson is surely under pressure, there’s being a poor side and going through a re-build, but the Eagles were absolutely woeful last season, like stain on the comp bad.

 

[mrmonkey]

I've only been listening to the radio but just noticed North have reverted to the white guernsey with black numbers, their best guernsey imo.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

West Coast should be ashamed of themselves. What a pathetic club they have become.

North were favourites...

Why would a team sack their coach in round 1 because they're so shit they might finish last? There is absolutely no possible benefit to doing that.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

They still have plenty of big name players and vets on a decent pay cheque, its mind blowing how they are as bad as they are. Unfit/undisciplined? Drink the bathwater too much in Perth? Dont think they have even bottomed out yet considering how many senior players are still playing

Reminds me of melbourne in 07 plenty of experience but only won 5 games for the season, one which the opposition wasn't trying.

Still drinking from their 2018 cup

 

[Lampers]

Hunty got a centre clearance for the Eagles! All these years Oliver and Petracca were holding him back from his true role.

 

[MarcMaverick]

Puzzling as to why the Roos went in with only Xerri as their ruck today.

It’s not like West Coast had a strong ruck setup though. If they went with one ruck against Melbourne that would seem odd.

Todd Goldstein would be handy now though.

I do see your point though

 

[Lampers]

Hunt still blasting the ball aimlessly into the distance. I doubt Melbourne did much to try to retain him.

Never Change Jayden, Never Change.

 

[Bluelegs]

That's not a mark.

That would be me.

But seriously. Congrats, Roos. Sheezus has graced the footy world and has turned water to wine by that I mean has provided the four points to the Roos.
