AFL Finals 2019 : West Coast V Essendon – Optus Stadium hosts epic elimination final

The West Coast Eagles will host the Essendon Bombers at Optus Stadium in week one of the AFL Finals 2019 series.

After West Coast shock lose to Hawthorn on Saturday night, the Eagles fell out of the top 4 with Richmond defeating Brisbane at the MCG and the Western Bulldogs defeating Adelaide in Ballarat.

To retain their Premiership Flag, the Eagles will now need to win four games in a row.

“We’ve got to win four in a row, I suppose. But I haven’t thought that deeply about it,” West Coast coach Adam Simpson said.

“This is a missed opportunity tonight, we’re really disappointed.
