West Coast Eagles v GWS Giants
Sunday, March 24 | 3.50pm (AWST) | Optus Stadium / Whadjuk
Gates open 1.45pm

Join us this Sunday to be part of the electric atmosphere at Optus Stadium as we return for our first home match of the 2024 Toyota Premiership Season, taking on the GWS Giants from 3.50pm (AWST).

Be there from 1.30pm to witness past Eagles stars, including Ben Cousins and Matt Priddis, as they join their children in an exciting Second Generation Academy curtain raiser. Gate D will open at 1.30pm for curtain raiser entry.

Then, from 3.20pm, our three recently-retired West Cost Eagles champions, Shannon Hurn, Luke Shuey and Nic Naitanui will take a lap of honour around the ground. Take this opportunity to thank these stars of our club.

Don’t miss Auzzie’s pre-match flight from 3.30pm, and the triumphant return of the banner as the boys run onto the ground!

At quarter-time, don’t miss the Fly with the Team “Race the Plane” competition, plus the half-time AGL Dance Cam and the three-quarter time Crown Cheer to Win and CUB Guess the Crowd Competitions.
