Previous games have been a struggle for westies ... but I'd rather win ugly than lose in any fashion.
Go the Bloods !

This is the game that will be "season changing" for the Double Blues ?

[therisingblues]

Double Blues by between 2 to 3 goals. We'll just do enough at the right times, kick the important goals, stop their run and show that touch of class when it's most needed.

[Big Phil]

West's win at Unley last season, in Round 5, was their first at that venue since 2000, if the stats I read are correct?

While it obviously hasn't been a happy hunting ground for the Bloods over the last decade, I think they will win this clash on Saturday reasonably comfortably...

[Brodlach]

Interesting thread, Sturt (7th) people talking themselves up whilst West (top) people talking them down. For me, West to win by 6 goals.

Envestra Park....

Will my GPS recognise this baddress...?

They need to perform to keep their spots. To be honest their form was pretty ordinary before injury/suspension struck.

Great problem to have with the depth we have at the moment.

I though Birss had been good but Ezard has been down a bit in form. Good to see the players in the reserves who are performing getting a crack in the league.

Wtf have we got to lose....we're rubbish

[RB]

IMO too much is being made of West's record at Unley. West are just in a different class ATM. West by 8 goals.
