Eagles v North Adelaide

[GWW]

North should have won the rucks all day which they didnt . Redden one regular SANFL game and Goss zero .
Salter looked out of sorts to me .

So Redden played well in the ruck?

More a case of had to play well .He did look tired by the end of the third quarter.to soon to be a first ruck .goss did well for a kid

Eagles must get Salter motivated to his 2007 level. A fit Staples is a must. An injured Passador was always going to show up the Eagles forward replacements.

"ferret" I just realised you posted
You near the net ?

Jarred Redden's tap work was impressive against the much more experienced and bigger Ackland.....he has bulked up since doing the preseason with the power and is develpoping nicely......

Goss was nervous at the start and dropped a relatively easy overhead mark early on but he plugged on and was involved in some ball movement through the corridor a few times.....he did well for such a young fella !

he gave away a couple of frees for high contact during the ruck contest but he didn't shirk....and that was noticed!

great learning curve for the kid to get the call the night before the game......

similar build to young Bock......

by the way Jay Cheep was the highest player at the club sponsorship auction @ $1,500.00

What the situation with Goldsworthy? Is he injured?

[centrecirclelegend]

yes injured .......I think he has bruising to the top of his foot (sprigged)

should be right for this week I believe....

[spell_check]

Thanks; hope to see him out there - he is a promising player, for sure.

Agree with your ruck assessment

What was wrong with Jay cheep injured ?

[BluesBrother08]

I see Nick Gill played. How did he go and do you think he will get a regular Crows guernsey this year with Hentschel, Walker and Tippet playing forward? Would be nice to see him in the Red & White for most of the year not the Red, Blue and Yellow.

[centrecirclelegend]

yes Cheep had slight injury and wasn't risked

Must remember first hitout for Ackland since last year, basically been getting himself right, when the game was up there to be won, he took it on

Just as it was for Luke Powell who looked like he needed the run after all his off season operations . Just being the seconds runner against Port wasn't quite the same.

the big guy who looked out of sorts was white(he had a bald head) i think for North he got caught with the ball a few times.

My lad and I were talking about Gill Saturday .And my lad thought the Crows recruited Gill as a stop gap measure(no offence meant to any roosters fans) either waiting for Hentschel to get right or retire.Plus he played last year to give the likes of Walker that year to get used to SANFL and be prepared for the AFL.

Gill IMHO if all the other talls play for the Crows will have a very good run with the Roosters .And Ben Schwarze has found himself at another SANFL club with tall AFL players playing forward .

U16 Eagles 15.9.99
North 1.4.10

U18 North def Eagles with a little help with the buzzer person (not me as North did this)

I'm glad North cheated to win an U18 trial game- our whole season depended on winning that one...
