R7: Glenelg v Eagles - Friday 6 May @ Gliderol Stadium
Posted: Thu May 05, 2016 10:22 pmGLENELG
Glenelg is primed to unleash exciting young forward Lachlan Hosie against the Eagles at Gliderol Stadium on Friday night.
Originally aligned to the Eagles, Hosie (19, 189cm and 75kg) came to the Bay last year and has steadily grown in form and confidence to earn a berth in the Tigers’ 23-man League squad.
‘’He attacks the contest hard, backs himself to jump high and crash the packs,’’ Glenelg football manager Paul Sandercock said.
Hosie has been joined in the squad by Riley McFarlane, who has been named in a forward pocket while Josh Woodall returns at half-back.
Former Bulldog Ben Nason, and defender Aisea Raikiwasa have also been included on the extended interchange bench.
Key forward Ziggy Vitkunas and Lachlan Earl have been sent back to the Reserves while last week’s debutant Jack Kenny will miss at least three weeks with a hamstring strain.
Glenelg captain Andrew Bradley will play his 100th IGA League match after making his debut in Round 1, 2010.

EAGLES
Woodville-West Torrens is sweating on the availability of co-captain Pat Giuffreda for Friday night’s clash against Glenelg at Gliderol Stadium.
Giuffreda is nervously waiting to learn when he will be at the birth of his child as his partner is due to be induced on Friday.
‘’It will all depend on how quickly the little one decides to come out,’’ Eagles football manager Luke Powell said.
‘’We fully support Pat wishing to be at the birth of his child as family takes priority in this situation.’’
Triple Ken Farmer Medallist and premiership wingman Scott Lewis will miss the game with hamstring issues, Wundke unlikely to play again until after the West End State match on May 29.
Defenders Aseri Raikiwasa and Nathan Batley have been called into the 23-man squad as cover for Giuffreda while star midfielder Nick O’Brien returns after missing the ANZAC Day match.
Forward Tom Whittlesea looms as the most logical replacement for Wundke, who strained his hamstring at training last week.
