I reckon it would be about the same.

A wee bit hot for me
Anyone who goes any info on how it went and any surprise faces .And if they just ran or did some ball work .

Any news on how the pre-season training is going at moment. Who is missing, who is training down the house etc.

We all know that Skippy is missing at the moment. That could change in the next week or two.

CD could confirm that or not.

I think he was rated quite highly by Port a few years ago, but just hasnt come through, and Port have lost patience with him.
Maybe a straight swap for Shane Harris.

Have any Eagles supporters heard whether we are trying to recruit any players or is the club sitting on it's arse again this year

Have you not bothered to read the thread about recruits for season 2009, or bothered to log onto your clubs website (or have you been sitting on your arse ???)

Jay Cheep from Geelong VFL signed
Ken McGregor retired from Crows committed to Eagles full time
Hayden Skipworth to return to SANFL if not drafted by the Bombers
Rhett Biglands particiapating in Pre Season training to see how the knee holds up, may play

Like your coach said on 5RPH a few weeks ago, with the couple of signings already, a lot of last years qulity players re-signing and if Skippy and Biglands play, it wont leave much more money in the salary cap for any more recruits.

They need more than that to make the finals next year - obviously you didn't see them play much last year

Time will tell, i think if everything falls into place for them with Skippy and Biglands, they should be back around the finals mark...

And as a matter of fact, yes, I did see a few of the Eagles games this year, was also involved in commentating their games for LifeFM...

If the Eagles are close to the salary cap there must be some serious overpayment of players going on because there wasn't much quality out there last year

He is very mobile, so he could play CHF or CHB, but he needs to put on some muscle...
