Sydney Swans vs West Coast Eagles Preview
A terrible performance from the Eagles at Optus Stadium, but they are a team that recovers well from bad performances so The Wolf is keen on underdog status in this one against the Swans at GMHBA Stadium.
West Coast has covered the line in four of their last five matches coming off a loss, and their response is just as strong coming off a blowout. The Eagles have won six of their last eight matches when coming off a 40+ point loss, covering the line in three the last four of those matches.
There’s been plenty of discussion around West Coast and Fremantle’s travel woes, but the Swans could be in the same category away from the SCG. They’ve now lost their last four away from their home ground, including losses to the Dockers and Suns.
With the Eagles welcoming back a whole heap of their top line players last game, they’ll be better with a game under their belt and will respond strong after plenty of criticism from last week’s effort.
