Brisbane Lions vs West Coast Eagles Preview
Even if it wasn’t first goal kicker week on the Neds blog, you really wouldn’t bother with the head-to-head in this one.
Saturday at the Gabba will be Brisbane Lions open training and it’s going to be very grim for the poor old West Coast Eagles, even if they did have a crack last week.
As for the first goal kicker option, take your pick between Joe Daniher, Charlie Cameron or Eric Hipwood.
Oscar Allen for West Coast is $9 for the first kick and possibly the best money one could possibly win involved the Eagles on the weekend, but I ain’t touching it.
Let’s go with Charlie Cameron at $8 for the first sausage roll and the estate of John Denver could expect a solid royalty cheque at the end of the game should he have a big day out.
