Season Preview: West Coast Eagles

What’s there to say? After just missing out on our 3^rd premiership flag in 2005 by ⅔ of a straight kick, we twisted the scenario and suffered the Swans a closer defeat in last year’s Grand Final.

Sucked in...

(But what do score-lines matter in the history of winning, anyway?)

With arguably our strongest and most complete squad ever, where do expectations lie this year? Nothing less than more wins, surely. But someone’s going to lose, and the rest of the league will be keen to make that the Eagles lot. Winning the flag? We did that last year. So lets set some new goals to pull our socks up for this year:

• Quentin Lynch… 100+ goals… Coleman Medal…
• Darren Glass to deed-poll his name to Smash Glass…
• Someone new to stir the cops and replace Gardiner in the outlaw gang…
• Daniel Kerr to dump Ben’s sister and go out with Chris’… Does he even have a sister?

Haha, nah:)

Let’s just start off our historical 5-consecutive Premiership flags to beat Collingwood’s record.
