West Tank Eagles

Featured Replies

Alot of the Richmond boys will be playing for their careers in the second half of the season (Richo, Brown, bowden etc) and you would think that rawlings wouldn't be trying to lose , time will tell

absolutely horrid game... wasn't sure who was tanking more.... started off I thought West Coast... but then thought Tigers were doing a pretty good job at tanking too. It was soooo slow and boring. I know we played [censored] last week, but I hope we don't look like that !!!! ... atleast we look like we are trying.

 

why is everyone so shocked? its a good plan by the eagles and they have done well. I think they could even steal pick 1 off us if we're not careful. we should be tanking too. round 14 against the eagles is a massive game. i'm calling it the scully cup now.

I only saw the second half but they were 3 goals down and had Lecras playing on the ball and Selwood deep forward.....................

Lecras wasn't getting near it and Selwood helped create some much needed forward pressure.

Can't a team just be crap anymore.

 

Even if West Coast tries to win the rest of their matches they'll struggle to do so. I think we're a good chance to get picks 1 and 3, with the Eagles getting picks 2 and 4.

I dont care how much and how badly West Coast are tanking you would have to rate them a good chance to win against Freo, Richmond and North all at Subiaco. They will win at least 1 of those and i dont see Melbourne winning 3 more.


I believe the signing of Worsfold to a contract extension is bad news for Melbourne. This lets Worsfold field a team he knows is not good enough to win games but does not put his position in question, thus the eagles can make a real "run" for the priority pick. <_<

It looks more likely that Melbourne will end up with picks 1 and 3, which i think puts us in a better position for Trengrove at pick 3 as i think the Eagles will take Butcher at 2

WCE play Richmond, Freo and Melbourne in the coming rounds... whether these teams like it or not, someone has to win these games.

imo WCE, Richmond AND Freo will all win 5 games this season. Especially considering they all play eachother in the coming rounds.

Don't forget the toasters managed to lose to us last year, and how bad comparatively were we then? Key game that for them in the tanking landscape.

Toigs and Superhero-Cape Wharfies have coaches who are looking to prove something and under the pump respectively. That, a Subi stadium chock full of cash (ie long term financial security), and (IMO) a never in doubt contract extension, provides a clear path to a priority pick.

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
