North Melbourne shook things up with Jack Ziebell starting forward and he earned an early free kick with a desperate tackle on Nick Blakey that set the tone for the Kangaroos and gave them the opening goal of the match. Franklin was mobbed by thousands of fans after kicking his 1,000th career goal the last time the Swans visited the SCG but this time was forced to watch on for the last quarter and a half when substituted out of the match due to a finger injury. The Kangaroos appeared set for an unlikely victory when Kayne Turner slotted the opening goal of the final term to stretch their lead to 14 points but the Swans were then able to kick the last four goals of the match to prevail 13.8 (86) to 12.3 (75).

'Miracle at Marvel' in one Eagles' best wins ever; veteran 'assassin' steps up: 3-2-1.

“The composure of Nick Daicos is something to see. “They haven’t been able to mark the footy inside forward 50 all day. “It means a lot to the group. Injury and Covid have decimated West Coast for the first three rounds of 2022. It led to their first goal of the game through Ollie Henry in the final four minutes. He just knows where they are,” Lyon added. The couple of times they’ve gone forward they’ve hit McGovern and Tom Barrass, so how’s the resolve? The way they’ve gone inside 50 just hasn’t been acceptable,” ex-Hawks sharpshooter Ben Dixon said. “We’ve seen them go quick but right now they’ve got an obstacle and it’s name is Jeremy McGovern and it’s kind of spooked them. But when the match was on the line, it was Kennedy and Darling who took the game away from the Pies as the Eagles recorded a memorable first win in 2022. “You can tell a lot of young guys in the group so the energy is high, it’s good to come over and head back with the win “It’s a great answer from the Eagles because the Magpies have put it to them and got the game back on their terms,” Lyon said.

Whether it's an extension of backyard rivalry or a contest to see who can impress father Peter the most won't fuss Craig McRae, in fact he's likely encouraging it, whispering in each Daicos' ear pre-game 'You know Dad doesn't love you as much as your brother - he told me just the other day'. The truth is anyone in black and white is loving them both. Connor West, Xavier O'Neill, Luke Edwards and Patrick Naish all stood up in a midfield missing too many big names to mention. And maybe he's starting to be proven right. The phrase 'one man's misfortune is another's opportunity' has been done to death in football circles, but it's about all Adam Simpson has been able to muster as he's watched player after player become unavailable through the first four rounds of 2022. West Coast missed what he brings the past two years - we all did - but when he's there Willie makes this side a whole different matter, no matter who else is in the side. In true Rioli fashion, he's an unstoppable mix of flash, pressure and courage.

West Coast’s first-choice engine room should be pieced together again soon, but the Eagles will be relying on emerging types at ground level, so Naitanui getting first hands to the ball and getting the Sherrin going West Coast’s way will be important – as he did early in the third quarter in the RAC Derby when the Eagles booted two goals in 30 seconds. It has been an interrupted start to the campaign for the son-of-a-gun – like many of his teammates – and Waterman will be keen to grasp the opportunity against the Magpies. The mobile forward started the year with 11 touches and a goal in the loss to Gold Coast, before missing round two due to the AFL Health and Safety Protocols and being named med-sub for the RAC Derby. He returns to the line-up on a half-forward flank and his ability to work up the ground and get dangerous around goals should be valuable at Marvel Stadium. Grundy has been in fine form to start the season, with his 20-disposal, eight-clearance effort almost inspiring the Pies to victory against Geelong last round.

Elliott injured as brave West Coast upset wasteful Magpies (The Age)

Collingwood fear Jamie Elliott may require surgery to repair an AC joint injury that could force him out for the next 12 weeks, adding insult to injury ...

It was the 26-year-old’s third game since his suspension began before a final in 2019. Collingwood threw everything at them managing 61 inside 50s to the Eagles’ 42, but they could not penetrate the wall kicking just four goals in the second half. Simpson said he played an important role in the victory and it was great to see him back after spending two years suspended for breaching the AFL’s anti-doping rules. “If he needs an operation it could be 12 weeks. “It could be quite a serious injury,” Collingwood coach Craig McRae said. The star Magpie was hurt when the Eagles’ Jamaine Jones tackled him to the ground early in the last quarter when the game was in the balance, and he was sent to hospital for scans.
