Totally agree was a great win
Two big ruckmen works

Poole getting the ball out of centre awesome
Rowe four goals great forward

Woodville-West Torrens extended its winning streak to four as it cruised to a comfortable 60-point win against West Adelaide at Maughan Thiem Kia Oval on Saturday.

Coming off wins against Norwood, South Adelaide and Central District, the Eagles have well and truly put themselves back into the finals mix by playing an attractive brand of football under new coach Sam Lonergan.

With key midfield recruit Jordan Foote again leading the way in the centre square, the hosts also got vital contributions from Jake Johansen, who had 27 disposals and booted two goals while ball magnet James Boyd has enjoyed his return to the League side after a stint in the Reserves.

A six-goal second stanza set up the Eagles’ fifth victory of the season, with James Rowe – returning from an AC-joint injury – pivotal in the match-defining run of play.

Rowe slotted through a tight set shot from the pocket to give his side a 32-point lead at half-time after earning a free kick seconds before the siren to end the second term.

Only inaccurate kicking prevented the lively goal sneak from finishing with an eight-goal haul, after tallying 4.4 from his 16 disposals and six marks.

”I was blazing away a bit there in the end so I’ll have to make sure I address that on the training track this week,” Rowe told Channel 7 after the match.

After failing to register a disposal in the opening term, Eagle Jared Petrenko exploded in the final three quarters to kick two goals, tally 18 disposals and produce a remarkable rugby-style tackle on West’s Murray Waite, which forced his lightly-framed opponent 15m backwards.

West Adelaide was again well served by star midfielder Kaine Stevens who took an eye-catching mark in the first quarter to go with his 34 disposals, 10 clearances and a goal.

Developing duo Waite and Patrick Fairlie cracked the 20-disposal barrier while journeyman Nigel Osborn booted two goals, laid six tackles and had five clearances.

Makeshift forward Tom Pillion looked dangerous on the lead early in the contest, only to be let down by inaccurate kicking for goal as he tallied three behinds in a frustrating afternoon for the Bloods.

Eagle James Rowe returned from an AC Joint injury to kick four goals in his team’s win.

Good effort from the Eagles, they just ground the Bloods into submission in the end, this is typical of their last couple of wins.
West was always going to come out of the blocks fast and furious with a lot of chipping the ball around but this could not last with us putting a lot of body on them.

I would have put one of the Hayes boys in there somewhere on Saturday. They are unbeatable in marking contests. Otherwise spot on.
