Big test this weekend against North !

By ZAC MILBANK

Woodville-West Torrens forward Nick Hayes admits the pain of the past is driving him to taste the ultimate success as he approaches his 100th Statewide Super League game on Saturday.

The ultra-consistent, and durable, forward has been quick to rack up 99 matches with the Eagles since making his League debut in Round 1 of 2015.

But as he prepares to face North Adelaide at Prospect, the 25-year-old has been forced to deal with two Grand Final losses, a straight-sets finals exit and a controversial Preliminary Final defeat to the Roosters in 2018.

Speaking on SANFL Radio, Hayes expressed his determination to achieve win a Statewide Super League premiership to sit with those earned with the Eagles U18 side in 2012 and Brisbane Lions’ Reserves in 2013.

Woodville-West Torrens is poised to take an unchanged line-up into its blockbuster against North at Prospect Oval.

Coming off a polished 65-point win against Norwood, the Eagles have added three players to their seven-man extended interchange bench.

Tall ruck Jordan West, utility Jackson Lee and forward Nick Moore have been included in the 25-man squad but may not squeeze their way into the final 22.

Durable forward Nick Hayes will play his 100th Statewide Super League game after making his debut in Round 1 of 2015.

Dale Pearce second quarter then Harry Morgan Deakan Jackson then Harry Morgan again

Woodville-West Torrens shot to the top of the premiership table with a gritty 15-point win against North Adelaide at Prospect Oval.

After narrowly losing their opening game to South Adelaide, the Eagles have since strung together three victories on the trot in impressive fashion.

Coming off an eye-catching 65-point triumph against Norwood, Jade Sheedy’s charges showed tremendous fight after appearing well out of the contest during the first term.

The Roosters, playing in front of their home fans for the first time this season, had their tails up early as star forward Lewis Hender booted two of the opening three goals of the game.

It wasn’t until James Rowe booted the first of his four goals that the Eagles troubled the goal scorers list right on the siren for quarter-time.

Despite having less of the football, the Eagles had 10 more clearances for the match as they slowly worked their way back into the contest with midfielders Jordan Foote and Jimmy Toumpas instrumental.

Foote, last year’s Eagles’ Club Champion, was well and truly back to his best with 34 disposals, 10 clearances, eight marks and two goals.

The former Sydney Swan gave the visitors the lead when he managed to snap truly despite having an opponent hanging off him as each team managed just one goal each during the third quarter.

Trailing by one point at the final change, it was that man Rowe who made his presence felt again as he snapped from 25m to give his side the lead less than 60 seconds after the bounce.

The nippy goalsneak was at it again midway through the the last stanza when the Eagles produced one of the cleanest passage of play for the match.

Reinvigorated veteran Matt Goldsworthy sparked the corridor attack, hitting Jake Von Bertouch on the lead, who laid it off to Joseph Sinor.

Sinor then laced Rowe out on the lead, with Rowe giving the Eagles a 12-point lead before Jack Hayes made the margin three goals nearing time-on.

North forward Kym Lebois’ flying shot from 50m just had enough legs in it to clear the goalline to give his side faint hope in the 24th minute.

But when Goldsworthy swept a monster handball to young Eagles midfielder Lachie McNeil in the goal square, it was time for the visitors to celebrate the 100th League game of half-forward Nick Hayes.

Sinor, Angus Poole and Goldworthy played important support acts to Foote and Toumpas while first-year defenders Lachie Jones and Jacob Wehr continue to look at home playing against men.

North vice-captain Andrew Moore fought hard for his side all afternoon with 33 disposals, five tackles and eight clearances while left-footers Harrison Wigg and Jarred Allmond also found plenty of the ball for the hosts.

It was North’s first loss for the season, having previously been the competition’s only unbeaten team leading into Round 4.

Did anyone see Mr Fuller's comments on SA Footy in regard the Eagles have just signed up VFL star Sam Lowson

I checked with a club source just now it’s BS
Clearances have to be in before June 30
And the border is closed

I'm pretty sure that the SANFL extended the clearance deadline to 31 July because of the corona virus, can anyone help/know?

The border closure to Victorians would be a huge "road block" to him getting here. I don't think it's a viable option.

Looked on quite a few sites to find out about Sam Lowson, he has had a very, very mixed up life, don't think he is the type of person we need. Although he may be a reformed character, ridicule and abuse from opposition supporters would be horrendous.

What we could use is a Wundke or Grocke type player up forward. I think our midfield and defense are going along well.

Mansell, Jones and Wehr are massive ins for us. Wehr is our new Allmond with his booming left foot. Any update on Thommo. They said he came off injured.

They said Thompson did a hammy
Mansell was coming thanks to the old coach
He like Jones and Wehr have been given a chance something we as a club haven’t done in years
Those youngsters have played 18s they know how to win that’s what the club needed
