Eagles all things 2021

Interesting story. Comes originally from a remote NT coastal settlement, attended school last year in Alice Springs. The U18s comp reverted this season to U17s (because of Covid?), he was too old for U17s so played Seniors and  excelled.

He's quite a photograph kid. I googled him up and he loves interviewing and met Prince Edward during his visit. He  is working to complete his gold award in the Duke of Edinburgh program.

Eagles need more Aboriginal players they can have a wow factor at times .

Spelly I don’t think this sites Admin are aware of the newest Eagles signings .
Once they find out it will start again

Oh I'm aware, I'm just waiting for their recruiting to stop before I comment again...I'm assuming it won't stop at 13.

You may need to cut that number down by one .
Mansell was invited to Richmond he signed with the Eagles not sure he will come back

He's not one of the 13 recruited this year.

But he was one that signed on from the 2020 GF win

I saw somewhere online Eagles lost 7 players to the AFL and then another 7 leaving going to Melbourne for work .
So it could be said Eagles are covering the losses from 2020.

Exactly why Sheedy and Powell are recruiting like this . Both came to the SANFL from Victoria.

Seb Kerrish is one, perhaps he wanted to play with a former team mate of his at the Bulldogs in the juniors

Signed another 3 players didn't you

A total of four , three new players and one returning who left before 2020 started

is Jake Johansen returning ?

Hopefully never to be seen again. Definitely hasn't been to training.

Regarding the fires in WA
The Western Australian Fire and Emergency Services Commissioner is Darren Klemm who played football for Woodville and Woodville West Torrens in the late 1980s and early 1990s

Premiership player has signed with Richmond

I don't think there's any secret to it is there? It's on the AFL site that Mansell has been rookied by Richmond.

Wimpy on the Eales board just mentioned The Eagles have lost 20 players to the draft in the last 3 years. That's fantastic recruiting and junior development in anyone's book.

OK, but the Eagles have lost 20 over the last three years to the draft, its pretty hard to rebuild when all your better youngsters are drafted.

All good bayman.

That is extraordinary. And yes it's obviously good junior development/talent identification, though you do have to have the zones that throw up that sort of volume of quality.
God help the rest of us if and when those drafted Eagles players all come back to them.

Sadly a lot come back old, or broken by injury, or both.

All clubs have zones which are designed to be equal . Success usually means player want to play at that club.

Disappointingly clubs done get rewarded for having players drafted as it was a few years ago. That is how it should be.

All clubs have a run of losing a lot of players from the draft and as mentioned they dont all come back at once or make it. I think the system ruins players . Drafted way too young.
