thanks spelly

Having done the research, I can now give you every occasion where the Eagles did not have a current (at the time) AFL player:

Round 22 1991
Round 23 1991
Round 14 1992
Round 19 1992
Round 20 1992
Round 21 1992
Round 23 1992
Round 24 1992
Round 25 1992
Round 22 1993
Round 18 1994
Round 19 1994
Round 20 1994
Round 21 1994
Round 25 1994
Round 11 1995
Round 15 1995
Round 16 1995
Round 22 1995
Round 17 1996
Round 3 1997
Round 22 1997
Round 1 1998
Round 22 1998
Round 8 1999
Round 13 1999
Round 16-20 1999
Round 22-23 1999
Preliminary 1999
Round 12 2004
Round 14-19 2004
Round 16 2007
Round 19 2007

That is 45 matches in total.

Also, the highest number of AFL players we have had in a side is 7. That was in the 2nd Semi Final of 2000. Central had three players (Michael Stevens, Dew, Guerra) while we had Biglands, Cicolella, Crowell, Gallagher, McGregor, Shirley and Mark Stevens. The only player that was AFL listed at the time and did not play in that match was Burton.

There have been multiple times where we have had six AFL listed players in the side at one time.

cool
