Here is some footage of West Coast doing their pre-game warm up (borrowed from the corresponding thread on their board) :

Would be nice to get a win sometime soon FFS. I think we're a better team than 2-6

 

[Underdog]

Hickey says Naitanui is the best ruckman in the competition. Good guy Tom

 

[Gavin Excell]

West Coast to answer critics with a command performance over the Saints

 

[Chuckie357]

Natanui wearing black skins, not being racist at all, but I don't think I've ever seen that happen before in afl, in rugby yes all the time

 

[Superstar swan]

Kennedy got the skis on today

 

[Adam H]

Nice bounce umpire you may as well just handed the ball to Shuey.

Now a free to gift them a goal.

 

[Adam H]

Priddis throw then Geary taken high WC goal.

 

[Squibbs]

Who would of predicted this? So shocking

 

[kane249]

St Kilda got the memo the games started yet?

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

west coast have there fave ski's on today

 

[Principally]

Priddis throw then Geary taken high WC goal.

Yep, everyone else's fault but Saints.

 

[Underdog]

Naitanui must be at 5 hit outs to advantage already

EDIT: Bazza stole my stat. 2mins into the game!

 

[Rob]

Looks like the flattest of tracks.

 

[Underdog]

Looks like the flattest of tracks.

We deserved to be criticised for St Kilda starting rubbish?

 

[Bardo State]

Kennedy got the skis on today

Could be his annual 8+ outing in a 10 goal+ thrashing

 

[DrZaius]

Fresh powder on the slopes today.

 

[Rob]

Jeez, if you're going pay the ducks, then pay them all.....

 

[kane249]

Saints pressure good

 

[Bardo State]

Naitanui must be at 5 hit outs to advantage already

EDIT: Bazza stole my stat. 2mins into the game!

It's all well and good to be a one man clearance machine but it doesn't mean much if you're not taking the odd uncontested mark on the back flank.
