AFL Live Updates: West Coast hope to continue winning ways as they face massive Sydney Swans test

Grim.

Eagles fans would have hoped these days were behind them. Sydney sent them a stark reminder of how wide the gap is.

It wen’t get any easier with Geelong at Gather Round next week, but until them goodbye.

Not too many ways to spin a loss like this.

“We said West Coast had been in really good form for a couple of weeks,” he said.

“We’ve been consistent throughout parts, but tonight we saw it for four quarters which was pleasing.

On Papley’s 200

“He provides so much energy and but his speed and contest are just first class.”

“We’ve got a big three weeks with the Sunc coming into Gather Round then on to the Bulldogs.”

“I think Isaac has been an unbelievable for a long time.”

Our three words on every Eagle in horror defeat.

He tries to give the Eagles something

“You’ve got some of their guns that really start to shine,” he said,

“We tag Harley for a reason because he’s soo good.”

“And Duursma coming through had some moments.

On his hanger over Harley.

“I’ve got to give him to that, I absolutely love him he’s a ripper, but it was nice moment to get one over on him.”

The Eagles narrowly avoid their worst ever loss in WA at 128 points.

But it’s still the fifth worth loss in club history as any goodwill built up over the past fortnight has evaporated.

50,000 fans saw the Eagles take a huge step back not because they lost bu because they could not compete.

Duursma was perhaps the sole shining line after moving into the middle after half time and finsihed with two goals.

For the Swans Isaac Heeney was amazing, Brodie Grundy elite and Chad Warner had moments. Demorilising for the Eagles.
