So what’s the story with West Coast?
They lost today to Adelaide by 122 points.
They lost to Collingwood last week by 63.
They lost Essendon the week before by 54.
They got smashed by 116 points by Hawthorn.
Let that one sink in.
Hawthorn. In full rebuild. The club everyone said was tanking for draft picks. Still dealing with the AFL investigation. Widely tipped to win the wooden spoon.
Before that, Gold Coast beat them by 70.
Again, the Gold Coast, who have still never played in the finals, and don’t look like they’ll make one this year.
So what’s going on? Is it an issue with list management? Or fitness training?
Is it time for Adam Simpson to go?

Injuries and poor list management, in a nutshell.
Craig Vozzo is responsible for some of the decisions that led them here, but there are signs that they still don’t get it. Taking only one player in the midseason draft and then benching NicNat for the rest of the year a week or 2 later is a headscratcher.
In any case, replacing the coach wouldn’t fix anything. And the panel around him was refreshed 2 years ago, they’ve just never had a consistent team to coach.@bengray @afl@lemmy.ml @australia @afl@aussie.zone Things have gone from bad to worse since I first posted this. Is there a way out for the Eagles?
Should Simpson stay on for the rest of the season?
