He has got to be breaking back into the eagles side...

These stats are in a side that lost by 70 points..

What are peoples thoughts? Is he not good enough to play for the eagles? Or are the Eagles getting him match ready to play a full game instead of the Sub again?

Nails

Eagles just won by 120+ points and they didn't suffer an injury did they?

He won't get his way in this week at least.

Regardless of whether he's good enough he shouldn't earn himself a spot this week just based on how good the Weagles were last week

Fireballz

They have got to give him a chance sooner or later. He's clearly earned a spot in the side I think he just needs to bide his time. If I was an eagles fan i'd have him in my side any day over Chris Masten. That guy is over rated.
But as Nails said, he more than likely won't get named this week.

If you've got him, I say keep him and he could be a good option for a round 19 upgrade before finals!

Cicjose

if he doesn't come back in 2 weeks i would be worried about his JS for the rest of year

deekay

I've got him and I'm an Eagles fan... might be why im biased. The kid is a gun... Masten is poop. Really just want to see how he goes. Dont get my wrong the eagles rate him (given the #3 jumper) but you gotta give him a chance, he is killing it in the WAFL and they havent given him a decent run (a full game once, doesnt cut it) If he was in a struggling side, this kid would be in every ones DT and be averaging you 70+ imo.

Masto was unusually good Fireballz i don't think we will make any changes this week though.
Tom swift and gaff are craving up the wafl along with Bradd dalziell so players are under constant pressure !!

Cicjose

problem was that they got him when the team was crap

somehow the team ain't crap no more so he can't get in

elephants

Haha somehow....

Cicjose

well it is rather unusual for a wooden spoon team to be in the eight halfway through the next season

Nails

They have been good sides last few years, just tanking for draft picks as best they could imo.

Could have been premieres lol but they just wanted the fresh meat lol

Jacky Darling was the bargain of the century. Eagles stole that draft.

+1. From an Eagles fan. But dunno how Ebert, Weedon and Shepperd get a game infront of him either.

deekay

I disagree. Look at the players that were either injured or not fully fit last year.

Cox, Embley, Butler, Shuey, Glass, Kerr (plus others i have prob missed.

No real forward target... now we have Darling, Big-Q, LeCra has some others there, Kennedy firing

You add those players back into a poor side - of course your going to see changes. 4 of the above i mentioned are premiership players..

Darling has competition for that title with Kennedy I reckon...  :P

elephants

True Fireballz haha.
Ineexkon we should drop evert and bring in one of gaff, swift or dalziell probably in that order. I don't mind sheppard off half back but give swift and gaff a run in place of ebert and shepps vs collingwood i reckon.
