They have nailed it. Will be won in the midfield.

Funny to read the indignant west coast supporter responses.

An interesting take on it. 

I think our guns will beat their guns . That is too say a cracking game awaits. Still think it's us by 18 but it will be a topsy turvy affair. 

West Coast wouldn't want to suffer another player going down early....that'd be a damn shame ?

Maybe though if it's Kaos v Control footy the score will be 99 to 86 ..or something lol

Yep...Eagles to miss by 'that much '

Beat them there in 2017.  Beat them there 5 weeks ago.

We will beat them there on Saturday.

goal kicking and forward delivery will determine it in the end methinks.

Midfields will make it tough and it will be who takes the chances.

WCE probably ahead of us in raw scoring power

AFL.com.au has picked us by 7 points.

Should be a really interesting game. We need to win the midfield well, like last time. If we do that, we should win. If the midfield battle is even, things could get uncomfortable.

Spot on RD. JK is a gun (a completely overused word but justified in this case IMHO) and Meth Coke have probably finished top two and not outside the eight due to him. He's under-appreciated on the East Coast IMHO. All this is a long way of saying that if they get it in the middle and can move it quickly in the JK direction - we've got real problems. I love Frosty and Oscar, but they are no match for Kennedy. Therefore we need to cut it off at the source. Brayshaw needs to have a big day IMHO. He just might be the key. If he gets it 30 times inside the square, we win. He's the closest we have to a 'kill you' player (that is a guy who every time he gets it he kills you - aka Martin, Cyril, Pendles, Nathan Buckley and Voss). 

Please Angus . . . play the game of your life Son.

FWIW . . . Robbie Flower was probably our last 'kill you' player.
