West Coast coach Adam Simpson has rated the one-point win away win over GWS Giants as the clubs best performance of his tenure, as they continue their late season AFL surge.Ruckman Nic Naitanui snapped a goal just before the siren on Saturday evening to enhance the Eagles top-four prospects and dent those of GWS, with the two teams now level on points.West Coast ground out a thrilling 14.13 (97) to 14.12 (96) victory at Spotless Stadium to score their first away win of the campaign against a current top eight side.GWS held a 24-point lead in the second quarter and were up by 23 at the last change.Inspired by Luke Shuey, who finished with a game-high 38 disposals and Naitanui, who logged 45 hitouts in his second game back from injury, the Eagles kicked six goals to two in the final quarter.They secured their sixth win from their past seven games, while the Giants lost for the first time in five matches and for just the second time this season at home.It was the best win weve had really as a club in my time with what we were up against, Simpson said.A six-day break, a top-four side, interstate, so hopefully weve answered a couple of questions there.But now, weve got to back it up. Theres another six-day break coming into the Hawks. I think our season has already ignited. Weve lost one game since the bye, so were as a good chance as anyone.Simpson revealed the Eagles had practised scenarios for the last two minutes at training during the week.Most rucks arent pretty good with their left foot so it was always a risk but, luckily, it went through,Naitanui told Eagle Eye TV about his match-winning goal.Giants coach Leon Cameron felt his side could probably have done a number of things better at the final stoppage from which Naitanui scored.The last 10 seconds, or eight, theres going to be 10 things were going to look at and say we can do that better, Cameron said.But I much prefer to be playing those games rather than games you win by 10 goals or games you lose by 10 goals.I said to our players afterwards be disappointed, but dont be disheartened, because its great to play in these big games and it was a cracking game.They are last years grand finalists, they are at full strength and they are starting to get motoring and we nearly got them.Coleman Medal pacesetter Josh Kennedy kicked 3.3 for the Eagles.Giants back-up ruckman Rory Lobb, who has reportedly expressed an interest in returning home to WA, kicked four goals, including what looked to be the match winner with just over a minute to go.GWS led for most of the game, but West Coast hit the front briefly in the third term before the Giants kicked the last five goals of that quarter.Giants defender Adam Kennedy was taken off the ground in the final quarter after his head hit the ground following a sling tackle from Simon Tunbridge.
