Eagles Woes

Given our horrific run of injuries from DAY ONE of the season, it is comforting to see the mighty West Coast team struggling when they too, are experiencing a bad run of injuries. It just shows it can happen to ANY TEAM. The big difference was that they were lucky in that they had THE WINS ON THE BOARD before their problems started. It might cost them a top 4 spot though. I still maintain that given a decent run with injuries next season, we still have what it takes. Am I being just too optimistic? Your thoughts please?

With a good run of injuries, i have no doubt we would have been up top 6 again, but its all hypothetical anyway.

i think we don't have the structure to go the next step and need a revamp. We need at least one big key defender and new pace in our backline.

i think westcoasts demise proves that any team struggles without there best players on the park.

injuries can be a legitimate excuse

it also shows how quickly the premiership window for a team opens and closes (not saying that West Coast's is closing). But when your team has a chance, you need to put everything on the line to win the bloody thing. Something Melbourne have not been able to do for some time.

West Coast can suffer in their jocks!

Bloody coke-sniffing cheats that they are. They are a disgrace to this competition.
