Adam Simpson labelled West Coast's performance in its 116-point thrashing at the hands of Hawthorn as "unacceptable".

The Eagles were demolished at UTAS Stadium in a bottom-of-the-ladder clash as the Hawks ran riot, kicking 11 unanswered goals in the second half.

Hawthorn had more disposals (448-311), yet still won the tackle count 90-82.

While West Coast has been hit by injuries, Simpson said Sunday's display wasn't good enough.

"Extremely disappointing, not good enough, unacceptable," the Eagles coach said.

"We're going to have to do a lot of work in a short space of time so, disappointing, not a lot to take out of that game at all."

The Eagles suffered yet another injury as Jamaine Jones hurt his ankle, while Liam Duggan went off late due to a neck concern.

Simpson said his side's effort was below-par in Launceston, with the Eagles left bottom of the ladder.

"You can lose and as much as that hurts there's a method and a pathway we want to continue to search for, but today we didn't bring the pressure," he said.

"We got beaten on the inside, they were too quick, beat us on the outside and then you put numbers behind the play and then they use the ball differently so your hands are tied a little bit.

"The effort wasn't the same as has been in the past when we've put up reasonable performances. It wasn't there today."
