Preview
Essendon appear to be flying high. Their performance against the Cats last weekend was particularly impressive. The Eagles managed to scrape home against the fast-finishing Bulldogs, in what was an important win.
There has been a lot said about West Coast's problems at the MCG, however, Eithad is a different story. They have won three of their past four games at the ground, including a win over North Melbourne earlier this year.
The result of this game could hinge on the performances of the two big forwards. Joe Daniher was amazing last week, but can still be inconsistent at times, while Josh Kennedy's inaccuracy (six behinds) almost cost the Eagles in round eight.
Tip: Eagles by 21
