R15 - WWT Eagles v North @ Prospect

[Dutchy]

NORTH
North ball magnets Jay Shannon and Michael Virgin have been included in the Roosters’ 23-man squad to face the Eagles at Maughan Thiem Hyundai Oval on Saturday.
Both usually fixtures in the club’s IGA League outfit, Shannon and Virgin have been accumulating plenty of the ball in the seconds as evidenced by the statistics sheet in Round 14.
Virgin finished with 40 disposals, 12 marks and a goal against Glenelg while Shannon racked up 29 possessions, 10 marks, eight clearances and two goals.
But Roosters coach Josh Carr could elect to take an unchanged line-up into the clash, forcing Shannon and Virgin to again ply their trade in the curtain-raiser.

EAGLES
Eagles defender Jake Summerton could play his first IGA League match in three years when his side tackles North at Prospect Oval on Saturday.
Summerton, who last appeared at League level in Round 13 2013, has been included as cover for injured co-captain Pat Giuffreda, who will miss one match with a slight hamstring strain.
The Yorke Peninsula product has been named on the extended interchange bench with fellow inclusion Jared Petrenko, who was rested with general soreness against the Bloods last Saturday.
Star midfielder James Boyd will play his 150th IGA League match after making his debut with South Adelaide in 2007.
Defender Jake Von Bertouch will play his 50th IGA League match.

Reckon this one's at Prospect, not Woody Park.

Eagles should be too strong for the inconsistent Roosters.

SANFL don;t even know if you read the preview!

[VALE PARK]

Did the SANFL get the day right?

[Magellan]

No surprise there.

I went on the heading alone, didn't read the preview. Wasn't having a go, Dutchy, BTW.

He's right though. Going by the SANFL's write-up the North team are playing at Woodville and the Eagles are playing at Prospect. Should be an interesting contest, promising open and free-flowing football with most players playing wide of one another.

[Dutchy]

No dramas, I just read the preview and presumed it was right....wrong!

I'm going to drive past both ovals just to make sure. On Saturday and Sunday.

[VALE PARK]

Good one Mag.
Should be high scoring games at both ovals!

[RB]

It'll be interesting to see the free kick count!

[Magellan]

It'll be interesting to see the free kick count!

Not to mention the number of tackles!

Each week you always look for that potential upset, and this week it could be at Prospect. North are an enigma this year, playing some great footy one week, and some not so great footy the next week whilst the Eagles have been known to throw in a howler every now and then. Odds should be pretty good for a punt on the Roosters.
North by 20-25 points.
