WEST Coast coach Adam Simpson will make his #AskTheCoach debut on Tuesday afternoon as he takes over the AFL Facebook page.

Ahead of his second season at the helm, the Eagles frontman will answer a range of questions from fans at 12pm AWST (3pm AEDT).

After a first-up win over Carlton last month, West Coast suffered NAB Challenge losses to Port Adelaide and Fremantle.

But Simpson and his team will be solely focused on its round one away clash with the Western Bulldogs.

While many expect the Eagles to improve in Simpson's second year in the role, the coach is facing several challenges ahead of the new season.

How will his team cope without backline general Eric Mackenzie, who tore his ACL in the NAB Challenge game against Carlton?

When will important forward Jack Darling (foot fracture) be fit to resume?

Can ruckman Nic Naitanui produce consistent form in the absence of Dean Cox?

Will the West Coast midfield be able to match it with the League's best?

Simpson will be on hand to answer those questions and much more.

The Q&A will open for questions at 8am AWST (11am AEDT) before Simpson sits down to answer the best four hours later.
