We have a wonderful team chock full of stars the like of which we might not see again in a lot of our lifetimes - enjoy every win! I cant get my head around the minority who whinge either
I agree its important to keep young players flowing through the side no matter how well we are doing and this is the perfect week for a debutant against the youngest side in the comp - we havent had a first gamer since Bowey last year have we?
He's worth a good contract but we shouldn't completely throw our TPP structure out of whack to retain him....our recruiters are the best in the league, I'm confident we would do very well with high drafts picks received in a trade.
Our side seems to abhor losses with a passion I haven't ever seen from a Melbourne team (or few others) before - we find a way to win even when we aren't playing all that well, cant see us dropping a game to battling North this week
“If the 8 half decent players WC have left play like it’s 2018, all the unheard of WAFL guys are on peptides and the entire Melbourne side have covid x bird flu, I think the Eagles can get it done”.
Belting Gold Coast by nearly 100 last year really got our attacking game going, next 2 weeks the perfect opportunity for the the forward to cash in and get their confidence up
Great player, leader and ambassador for our club he speaks so well. At his peak at age 30 as well I reckon he could be one of those guys still playing top footy at 34, plenty left in the tank
It is interesting we have insurance players like Maj and Mitch Brown who are probably good enough to play at least some senior footy this year, but are at a club where it’s unlikely to happen unless we really get smashed with injury or covid. Even Luke Dunstan is pretty unlucky he can play a strong role but no spot for him.
