Game Chat – West Coast v Melbourne

Written by Father Dougal on August 9 2021

Where and When:  8:10pm  at Optus Stadium

What it means for the Eagles: A win and they are pretty safe in 7th. A loss and they will still be in 7th, but with five other teams breathing down their necks. 

What it means for the Demons:  If they win they are back in first, if they lose they stay in 4th. Big match. Winning and having the #1 spot be in their own hands would be great for them

 

Supercoach Watch: 

Eagles:  Edwards,  Nic Nat…

Demons: Oliver and Petracca, Jordon. May, Lever. Gawn.

 

Father Dougal’s Watch:  Oliver! My last chance for a decent score.

Father Dougal’s Tip: Demons by 15

    1. Sounds good, Murray.

      As to tonight’s game, I’m secretly hoping we step up to the plate. Will know within the first 5 minutes whether the Dees are going to run over us.

      Fingers crossed.

  3. I’m a bit worried about Dad. Since his bombers won yesterday, he has been sitting in the cellar with reams of paper and an old calculator, wearing an old Melbourne woollen jumper from his under 19 playing days in the 1930’s. He’s convinced if Dee’s win tonight his bombers make finals.
    I’m worried what might happen to Dad if Dees lose.
    Please win Dees.

    1. SOW, is your old man ok since it has come out that Mason Redman got a week for his tackle on Bont???

      Might need a Grange just to consume that call from the MRO!

      1. Jahmed….I heard about that. Greatest injustice since Lindy Chamberlain. Worse than Neville Crowe when big Nick fainted in the second semi all those years ago.
        As Tony on the coodabeens once said…..”you can’t touch him (Bont)”.

        I have replayed the incident several times over…in fact I polished off a bottle of 72 Grange in the process…it was a worse suspension decision when I finished the bottle than at the start !!

  4. Match suspended, lightning.

    If there’s still lighting after 20 minutes (already been 10) then the half time scores are the final scores.

    Give Simpson a zap and inspire some coaching genius!

  5. Ugh, not only am I subjected to another dismal West Coast performance drawn out by a lightning delay – now I’m sitting through Toby Greene’s shitty Cash Convertors ads.
