Come on West Coast fans admit it, you are starting to get excited about your teams prospects this year. The Eagles have showed a lot of resiliance in the face of a few setbacks. They dealt with GWS easily on Saturday without 3 key players and now have a blockbuster next week against premiers Richmond for top spot on the ladder. It will be a great game, Nic Nat and Mcgovern will be back,not too sure about Shuey but it doesnt seem to matter who is out, others take up the slack which wasnt always the case in past seasons. Darlings development into an elite player has been the highlight culminating in his best performance in an Eagles jumper yesterday. A long way to go but if WCE can knock off Richmond next weekend ( which I think they have every chance of doing at Optus), top 4 will be looking a good thing.

I’m with Simmo on this one. It’s been fun, but only a third way through. For me, when we can beat Richmond, Adelaide and or Geelong, then i will get excited. Back of my mind recalls how the Roos won all their early games a couple of years ago, only to fall in a great hole by the end of the year. As for “game of the season” mike, I think we saw it last night in Adelaide. That one’s going to take some beating!!

They have a top 4 locked in already, that started to become a reality a couple of weeks ago.

I'm tipping they will beat Richmond, watched them v North at the MCG and didn't impress,

There will be some big finals at the new stadium this year.

Seems to me the whole thing is up for grabs.

Thought Richmond played Nth at Etihad? Not MCG
