West Coast Eagles vs GWS Giants Preview
Perth plays host to the final game for the second week in a row when the Eagles and Giants meet at Optus.
Like they were against Collingwood, GWS was methodical at times last week against North Melbourne, another reminder of just how deep and talented Adam Kingleys list really is.
Jesse Hogans six-goal haul has seen him firm in Coleman betting, and with Toby Greene, Jake Riccardi, and emerging star Callum Brown all capable of scoring on a dime, this is another team has serious claims on the flag.
The Eagles gave it their all in the first half against Port last week, but ultimately lacked the legs to stop a five-goal margin from blowing out even further.
Harley Reid did some nice things on debut, but it felt like West Coast had no answer for Ports quick ball movement and ability to spread the field.
Like the Power, I think GWS has too much talent up forward, and given how easily they moved the ball inside 50 last week against North, its likely we see a similar story unfold.
