Match report: Eagles spread wings at home against Suns
May 29, 2016 7:54 PM
West Coast forward Josh Kennedy has booted five goals and Luke Shuey has starred through the midfield in the Eagles' 77-point win over Gold Coast at Domain Stadium.
Kennedy had four goals to his name by half-time in Sunday's 20.12 (132) to 7.13 (55) romp, which lifts West Coast (7-3) to be equal on points with third-placed Geelong.
The Suns have now lost seven AFL games on the trot, with their average losing margin during the past five weeks a worrying 87 points.
And it doesn't get any easier for the injury-hit club, who take on one of the flag fancies, the Sydney Swans, at Metricon Stadium on Saturday.
West Coast was never truly challenged at their home fortress after the ruck dominance of Nic Naitanui helped set the tone early.
Kennedy feasted on the opportunities presented to him in the first half, while Shuey finished with 26 disposals and a goal.
Eagles recruit Lewis Jetta tallied 17 disposals and three score assists in his first game back from a two-week stint in the WAFL.
