Gotta have something going for us.

With Ressies playing Saturday, at least 1 of the 2 extras named may miss playing all together being a league emergency.

Despite all our injuries the eagles team actually looks ok. But we absolutely cannot have any passengers this week. Each player needs to contribute.

Assuming Sumner starts on the bench as named I'd have our I/C as Bornholm, Sumner and Martyn.

North team looks incredibly strong. On paper, they have a far stronger side than the eagles. But the last 5 weeks of hte minor round they seemed to have been well down on confidence. Not sure what last weeks win will do for them. If north are switched on and positive they will win by 5 goals.

I disagree. I don't rate many of their lesser players, however the game isn't played on paper and I think it will be a very close one.

[Wedgie]

Eagles will win by a point after a dodgy umpiring decision and Craig Parry will be BOG with 50 hit outs.
Footy gods hate us!

...and while the Eagles take on the Dogs @ Alberton, North and Glenelg Ressies will be going their hardest @ Woodville

[Big Phil]

Here at Alberton for the Eagles v Central Reserves 2nd Semi Final...

Coach Mick Godden has dropped Byron Sumner, who is warming up in the reserves as we speak...

Based on the team sheet from the 2's, it looks like Lachy Carey and Sam Martyn will be playing League tomorrow...

[Wedgie]

Johnston out and Ryswyk touch and go, we could be in trouble.

Johnston out and Ryswyk touch and go, we could be in trouble.

No doubt about it we will be pushing the proverbial up the hill but then again who would have predicted last weeks result.
