How's this for a highlight reel on how to get front and centre and then caps it off with mark of the year!

We need to promote him

I can’t go on SAFooty for some reason . Seeing sa footy is saying this game is at Woodville oval I checked it’s still at unley as stated on 7 news and the WWTFC page .

These sides were from the eagles email
Sanfl sides list Pickett on the bench

This was off the SANFL website. Kickett on I/C bench instead of Moore I think

So is Hienjus

I'm at home watching our game. At half time, Skill level and decision making poor. Jordon West is a WOFTAS. Can't mark, ruck or anything. Should be sent to a country league. Glad we have Reddan there. Desperately need mobile talls in the forward line. Foote is a good player.
We need to some heavy lifting second half.

We are shit and I’m at the game

It's going to be a long season for us if we continue to play that crap. Handball happy again and most of them go astray

It not being handball happy but being efficient at doing it. Our handball last 1/4 brought us back into it. The last 1/4 was much better. Some of the young lads were good. Foote is class. We were short in attach the first 3 1/4. Redden was class all around the ground. Hopefully we get a few back in the next week or so. Crows loss Thursday and loss today. Great week ahead for me.

Why couldn’t we play the first three quarters like the last .
I left early when Sturt got back to 12 points up
Redden was winning the tap
We couldn’t get the ball away from centre until the last
We couldn’t hit targets
Sturt were flooding
Pup stuffed up at a bounce stepping in the circle
We either need more forwards or less rucks

We wont win any games by just playing 1 quarter

I think we will get better. We were minus Toumpas, Lonergan, N. Hayes, Sharrad, Guilhaus, Giuffreda, Firns Gray and Schmusch. For us to be so bad in the first three quarters and still hit the lead was very encouraging.
We could never play as badly again as we played in the first three quarters. Still think the coach is still experimenting as to where each player plays best. Petrenko's brain fade and Goldies three absolute shocking kicks in the last line of defence were very, very costly. Thought Redden was outstanding and Lewey was very good in his 200th. Jordan Foote is playing very consistent footy.

Our kicking for goal and skills for the first 3 quarters cost us the game. 1 good quarter of football doesn’t help our cause. Petrenkos brain fade and Goldys 2 shockers were only part of it. Many more things could be pointed out

I still think many are over reacting, sometimes a team just has a bad day. I have a lot of confidence in Sam Lonergan. He is very thorough and extremely committed. The reserves have won 2 from 2 with a team of little known players, the club is slowly developing. The Eagles most probably don't have some high end stars like a few SANFL teams but our attitude and endeavour will win through. It's a little early to get off the horse yet. As Lonergan said the team was unbalanced because of the unavalibility of quite a few, after the way we played early our comeback was sensational. Also our U18's are 2 from 2 with several of their best players playing reserves or league.

Yesterday after some thought I agree with you wimpy .
We missed lonergan in the centre Hayes up forward and PattyG down back .
Go back 12 months Sturt had us on toast but couldn’t kick straight and we came through.
And we know how 2018 ended
So let’s be positive
And wimpy nice to see you can post again.

Mickyj, thanks, I was feeling a little left out.

I was wondering why you weren’t posting
When I checked at the footy it said you were banned I unbanned you . No idea how that happened. But I can’t get on SA footy anymore must’ve happened to me there .
