West Coast v Essendon Preview, Optus Stadium
Even without wonderboy Harley Reid, West Coast were highly competitive on their long road
trip to face Gold Coast. Reid is set to return following a club-enforced rest after his profile
went to rockstar levels during the Eagles’ Western Derby upset of Fremantle. The Eagles’
more experienced players appear rejuvenated after more than two seasons of doom and the
fanbase are excited again. Essendon almost pulled off their biggest win in recent memory
when they drew with Collingwood on Anzac Day. The result still left them inside the
top-eight. But this shapes as a genuine danger game for the Bombers, who have often lost
these type of matches on the road in the past.
TIP: Essendon by 17 points, Jake Stringer to kick three or more goals
