Eagles by 40, goals. 40 goals.
We've got a decent history in Adelaide. Reckon we're a chance!
Home elimination final on the line, hoping the boys can respond and show they can still play well without NicNat
No Sloane a big help too

Would rather us have nic nat and them have sloane :(.
Adelaide by 3 goals :(.
C'mon Crows win this one.
Thinking Crows at home
Coasters need this
Lycett off and down the race :'(
Lycett with early injury issues, wouldn't even be a 2 this week... ::)
nice start for Jetta
flower! Le Cras then Darling missing easy shots :(
Adelaide aint gonna stay down all night boys!
Rory Atkins what a goal!
Giles and Lycett playing well. Giles doing particularly well at the centre bounces.
Jon flowering Giles!
how does the umpire miss that? ...you couldn't actually get a clearer mark
Was just checking Giles top SC....177 against Port back in 2012 :-X
Everyone get around Giles
Shocking deliberate call there. Lucky for the Eagles Atkins is goal hungry ;D
and now they pay a ridiculous deliberate
why must they make it about them?
geez West Coast are certainly peaking at the right time
they've been great the last few weeks
The Eagles pressure around the contest has been ferocious tonight!
GG, quite the boilover to get us pumped in time for a bye week...
and just going on with my previous comment... this is where the week off before finals could really mess with teams form
hard to tell if it'll affect em but I guess we just gotta wait and see
affect? effect? I dunno :P
Can not believe what i'm seeing tonight from us. >:(
I am in love with Barrass,he has been absolutely awesome tonight
Get around us!
Last 3 weeks have been excellent, peaking at the right time
Giles has been great, and my man crush on Barass is real
As a lot of you may know I don't bet on sports, only the brownlow, but seeing as I'm holidaying in the gold coast and saw we were paying $3.65 which seemed ridiculous I plonked down $250 on us for a nice $912.50 collect :)
Whole season's work down the drain in one night :(
No avenue to goal, players look lost when they get the footy. It's not like we have someone in our coaching staff who might have a clue how the Eagles play.....
Yes I'm being dramatic but wow, what a disappointing night. Well played, Eagles!
haha flowerin score RD! enjoy the weekend ;D
All hail the back to back Coleman medalist
Barass looks like he has secured the R23 Rising Star nom, Jayden Hunt a bit stiff
Anyone for Giles in perfect 9 haha
Massive game by the big fella after Lycett went down early, feel kind of bad since I spent all day bagging him out :-X
I didn't realise how close the Eagles were to overtaking the Crows on the ladder!
Those 3 goals helped the Crows stay above them.
So after all the early season doom and gloom West Coast finish the year half a game behind last year!
Does anyone else think the week off might not be the best for West Coast?

They've certainly got momentum at the moment. Will be interesting to see how the week off affects different teams

I'm pretty sure it's effect.
A whole season of work pretty much gone in one night. Well done to the Eagles, the 29 point loss flattered us in the end.
When Sauce gets absolutely dominated by Jon Giles, I fear something is wrong. As we've seen in previous years, ruckmen can fall off pretty quickly. He just looked appalling all night, couldn't jump and could barely make a contest. We had so many passengers all night and it's clear that without Sloane, our midfield is awful. Thommo is finished and can't do anything other than compete at stoppages. If only we had a certain someone still ::) We need to target one or two gun midfielders this year, our backline and forward line are set but our midfield is second rate at the moment.

Sauce mustn't be fit, there's no other explanation for what happened. How stupid do the people who said we're better without Dangerfield look now! Our midfield had zero class or firepower last night, yes Sloane out was massive but that's no excuse for lack of effort and pressure.
Thommo has been a great player for the club, but he's been finished for about 12 months now - is just that couple of steps too slow and in today's game that costs you, especially when he has awful disposal. CEY or Grigg would be just as good in that role next season.
Hopefully we can still salvage something from the finals series, but this was as good of a chance for a top 2 finish as you could ever hope to have.

His ankle mustn't be right still and we aren't going to play O'Brien in the finals unless we have to, I hope the week off helps him.
Exactly, wish we could make the hard calls like North, as much as it would hurt Thommo and the players, we need to look forward, he's just a liability at the moment.
I'm just praying for a North win tonight, I'll take 4th place at the moment.
So glad my efforts in talking up the Crows weren't wasted :) Thanks Eagles!!
