Here we go again. It appears Ramrods assessment of Lachy McGregor was made on one game.
He has been a revelation to the Eagles attack. In eight games this year he has kicked 21 goals (3,3,4,2,2,4,0 and 3). He only plays forward and with three talls playing regularly up forward for the Eagles he has to use plenty of smarts to get his goals. His run down tackling of unwary defenders is sensational. His hands are very good, rarely fumbles and can take a high grab. He is an excellent kick for goal. Other great attributes are his reading of the ball off hands and his positioning to gather the crumbs. His ability to play one out from the goal square gives the coach more attacking options. McGregor has only played 34 league games, in terms of a SANFL league player he is not very experienced yet has performed extremely consistently this season. The match Vs Sturt was his poorest game by far but conditions on that day were very poor. Eagles won 6 goals to 3. He played in the state match against WA so he must have been impressing someone. Give the fellow a break. When you can get to watch a dynamic small forward why knock him.
I can assure you, ALL Eagles fans love him.
