Eagles v Centrals Review Thread

[Mickyj]

was it the umpires fault this week?



and Big Phil...... you are a legend in the making with those reports... well done.

There were many boo's when the umps came off .Must have been doggies fans . But the umps were once again standing in the wrong position to call frees .
Did anyone else think Centrals white jumper clashed with the umpires and the merged with the signs around the ground?

[Apachebulldog]

Well done Weagles a 30 goal turn around in two games yah all should be swabbed !!!

Was not at the game due to other commitments just as well cos it would of been a sad and lonely trip home.

I am not giving up on the Doggies yet although one wheel has already fallen off !!!!!!!!!!!!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[FlyingHigh]

Great result, was dreading this one, but its still only one game we have pegged back from those we shoudn't have lost, ie Port, North, Norwood.

Next week just as important

Spelly, is this the biggest turnaround by the Eagles, and what would have the previous one been?

The Mighty Eagle has decided to turn around and bite someone

We have our tail between our legs and are licking our wounds at Dogie Land today.

So what day are YOU YOURSELF training at Elizabeth Dogger ? Will it be open for the other teams fans to watch or will it be a closed training session ?

Thanks tigersupporter, I appreciate that mate, I guess I like to think I'm a bit of a wordsmith but I really just write how I feel... Probably say too much at times but that's because I'm so passionate about footy and the Dogs. Really enjoyed doing the radio cross yesterday with "Around The Grounds" for LifeFM again as well

The umpiring was a hell of a lot better than the game against your mob (mainly because there was no Rowston or Dey !!) but you hardly even noticed them because the Eagles were playing such free flowing, running football and were the first to the ball. We've got a long way to go !!

GO U DOGGIES...

Big Phil...

Still I saw so many frees go unrewarded due to bad positioning of umpires.And guess what this happened both ways not just in the Eagles favour .
And well done Phil on your write up .

Must say it was all smiles in my position in my Eagles nest bloody cold mind you but it is winter.
Cheers

No mate i am still trying to get to Woodville for a training run . Not for myself mind you as Big Phil will tell and that picture i posted prove to much grey on top .Yes I am a wuss
I am rather interested to know what Ron Fuller said to the boys to get them to play so well .
I could have guess and either be way off or spot on .And if I was spot on would not like to say out loud or online for that matter.

Cheers

No, not quite. The club record is 186 points:

Round 11 1995
Central 3.1 10.6 14.6 23.9 (147)
Eagles 1.4 4.5 8.7 9.8 (62)
Elizabeth, 2506

Round 12 1995
Eagles 3.6 12.9 14.12 20.16 (136)
Glenelg 2.2 3.5 4.10 4.11 (35)
Whyalla, 3212

[spell_check]

At least one Torrens supporter had the courage and integrity to apologise for the disgraceful comments made by some alleged 'fans' last week...

We are certainly not the only club to have those observations. I'd call it reverse psychology.

[GWW]

And people thought I was crazy when I said the Eagles were a better team without Passador!

I was certainly glad he didn't play against Port earlier in the year, helped Port get a rare win this year

[wedgetail]

Best effort by the Eags this year since the comeback from 5 goals down against Strut.
Al be wasted with a poor display against PAM this week. We have a very good recent record against PAM at Alberton so I'm confident it can continue.
Centrals' slow midfield helped us Saturday and as Port's isn't overly quick either, I expect the midfield to do well again.
Unfrotunately, Strut's, Glenelg's and North's midfield are not slow and expose us. We still need to recruit some quality onballers for 2009.
Passador still the best and most consistent FF at the club. What to do with Schwarze when Pass returns?
Broadbent=class, will certainly get drafted
Wright added skills and composure, very handy
Klunk gives 100%
Groecke our best CHF as he presents all day
Will be very disappointed if we lose to PAM.

Umpires seem to be standing a fair way back from the play lately, but at least they weren't looking into the sun in the latter part of the game yesterday like they usually do!

Like the white jumper, but did think at one stage that a centrals player in the reserves was handballing to the umpire but it was a team mate wearing the long sleeves.

[Dirko]

So...how's Ron's job looking this week ?
