Glenelg won't have Hosie and McBean must be in doubt so don't like the option of bringing in another slow player (Bruce) and adding to lack of pace in defence.
Thompson and Moore can do the job and Litster plays a lot taller than his height.
Max in would be tempting but given recovering from ankle injury would have to question his fitness.

The next 2 weeks are going to be massive, both TV games (i think) which we seem to lift for

Just the Glenelg one then centrals on the long weekend[

Only know this as when I've been given the games i can attend to they're on.the piece of paper

Thanks for the info yeah it was just a guess assuming that they would show eagles v norwood over north v south but obviously they don't select the better game

All games are pre selected before the season starts for TV games just that they haven't done them for when more games are being released

I'll take a screenshot of the current tv fixture and upload it on here if i can do it that way around

Be interested when the team's come out this week as all under 16s and under 18s are on Wednesday night due to college students which never suits us county people as it would be early hours of Thursday morning when most of them will get home unless they stay overnight somewhere

Sauce Jacobs kicked all 5 of Ardrossan's goals on the weekend as a permanent full forward. He'd be a good option to have!

D'Aloia Weckert McKay being nominated for mid season draft. In my opinion yes McKay has been good but maybe not up to the next level in my opinion.

by 35Eagles Tue May 21, 2024 6:15 pm

Does anyone know when they're releasing more games yes i need to know for my sake of it. it's not like I'm talking time off from my work which i do which the boys and i love.

"D'Aloia Weckert McKay being nominated for mid season draft."

just a question : does "being nominated" mean by someone other than these players.

I thought that the players had to put their names up for selection.

You're probably right. I just am surprised re this re Luke.I get confused on how it works but if he goes the club will miss him off the field and on the field as their is very few people like him around the place.

I don't do twitter I've had a few times. I just want to try to cut back on things .

Just to go off the subject a bit I'm surprised that we didn't get a injury update today as i thought it's normally Monday or Tuesday though state game.

Re Luke B. Think that you'll find that his grandparents in his mum's side has something to do with AFC. Her parents went to the Crows club champion night last year the same time as eagles one i think you'll find.

I think you will find Luke B, is the grandson of John Condon a former administrator at North Adelaide and the Crows.

I think there is a fair chance that Beecken is going to be drafted.

Yes, today it was reported that Beecken was one of 24 players invited to undergo an AFL medical. To do this at least one AFL club has to nominate you. It doesn't say that it was the Crows but given they can potentially have three picks it's a fair chance that he is one of the three under consideration.

On another note great to see Jacobs and Goldy in Melbourne recently catching up with former Eagles players J Hayes, Sharman, Hardie, McNeil and Mansell.

It would have been interesting to have been a fly on the wall listening to the conversation. I assume Jacobs would have been keen to introduce himself to these players and establish a connection in the event some of them get delisted at the end of the year and to gauge where they would ever entertain coming back to Adelaide.

by 35Eagles Wed May 22, 2024 10:38 pm

I think though under 18s got thrashed Oscar Pearce is not that far from getting his first reserves game also he's got the ability to ruck if possible. He couldn't keep his smile off his face in the club rooms after the south game though under 18s had a loss with someone and i he couldn't.

Williams Rowe Morris Luke B Beattie have been added to the mid season draft list

Me just finding out they may be drafted mid season
I’m a jinx seeing im back Sunday

Welcome back on Sunday....bearer of bad news or not.

Of the list, I am surprised mostly that Williams wants another taste of AFL. He wasn't very complimentary of the mid-week draft in an article in the Advertiser during the week.

Mitch Hardie (Geelong VFL) 37 disposals today. Hasn't been able to break into Geelong AFL. Now or never for his selection with Geelong having lost last 2. If not then a certainty for the Eagles in 2025 ?

by whybother Sat May 25, 2024 9:58 pm

And Jack Hayes seems to be on the outer again
