It's going to be a long, long day ... and the misery and the pain is likely to continue.

Can we beat Carlton's 5.7.37 from last night?

Can we avoid a 100 pointer?

Will our five ruckman policy pay off?

All these and more questions will be answered by the end of the day.

Yea finally game day, a big chance for us to show what we can do in a huge game at their home ground where we haven't won in who knows how long. I personally think we are a chance, the coach has been able to put together a game plan that pressures this team, we just need that little bit of composure in the final 3rd and I think we can get it done. We have a really good mix of experience and youth against an ageing team that has been dominant for a long time.

Go Wallabies!!!

Last 3 games against them were all losses by more than 90 points. Less than that is progress, no?

will frawley play like a man who only has 2 games left with this club.

I just hope we can kick some goals and keep west coast down.

Anything under 100 I will take.

what time does the game start?

AFL.com.au are bloody useless, they should label all the game times as EST to keep things more organized

umm, they may not want all the WA spectators to roll up 2 hours late for the match.

12 scoring shots WJ?

we usually struggle with that many against a bottom side let alone the WCE's

If we pack the back line and largely forget about scoring ( yes I know what is new ) I reckon around a 90 point loss.

If we think we can score and play open 120 points .

Tonight could be the night we exceed 186

Quite often I worry myself DO.

Bull s--- aside I am praying for less than a ten goal loss tonight.

It i check the score before bed and we have lost by less than ten I will sleep soundly.

Let's all hope the margin is 10 goals or less but I don't have a good feeling about this one.

Maybe just check the score tomorrow morning as there's no point losing sleep!

About 3-4 weeks ago I would've said I can see an upset, now I'm back to praying for under 50 points. Biggest thing is first quarter the players have to at least look like they give a s---. These guys are getting paid very good money to do what they do and last week they performed like amateurs.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
