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.

I agree with you Wimpy. I was frustrated by disposal and shooting for goal. We also didn't get the umpiring rub of the green. The second half showed where we are at. I think Sharrod is back next week and PaddyG. Whats his issue?
His inclusion might allow the Von into attack. His move there in the last 1/4 was good. The young lads into the side looked good. Who was ruck in the B's. West was not up to it but should have had a mark/free in the goal square. He is certainly not like Bomber in the forwards. Apart from bounce ups a liability.
The loss of Hall was decisive.

Have we worked the new rules out yet especially the kick outs from goal..

Goddy player in seconds number 41 I think Michael . He was great around the ground very young . And number 57 was showing signs of getting there his name wasn’t in the budget

Thanks for that. The club website is poorly managed. In the past they had a fair bit of player info . It appears it may be linked to the SANFL website and this may be the reason for the lack of maintenance. They have player 41 as Sam Michael and 57 is named as Jamie Coff in the reserves list.

Michael had 14 possessions and 20 HO
Coff had 7 possessions for 3.0 goals. Not a bad return for amount of possession.

Sam Michael was No 41. Was first ruck for the U18s premiership team last year. Did not play the first game, was not considered to be good enough!!!!!!!!!! Thought he played a very serviceable game, should be in the team each week. Unsure if Paddy will play next week, still think he might be a week away. If the Von plays up forward I would look at either Jackson Lee or Heinjus taking his defensive spot.
N. Hayes and Toumpas are outside chances.
West was very soft again, can't wait for Seb to come back. Sharrad and Firns will be big boosts in the grunt area.

Club medical says Lonergan to have a test. Does anyone know if the groin is what kept him out of trials.
Hayes , JT and PaddyG 1 more week. Give them the week and make sure their OK.
Hopefully Sharrad will be back.
Wimpy where was Firns.

by Columbo Mon Apr 08, 2019 9:08 pm

Firnsy was suspended for 2 from the final trial game i believe, should be back this week.

Gee, Our players seem to always cop the big suspensions. The tribunal today gave fines to some player. We are a marked team.
