I believe that McGregor, Skipworth, Knights, Vince and Burton are all chances to play for Eagles Reserves this weekend.

Really makes a mockery of the competition, unfortunately.

Esp. When a senior Bays player, who is technically eligible, has decided NOT to play this week to give the young kids a chance.

Will be interesting to see what happens. I would imagine MacGowan and the Eagles reserves wouldn't have much of a say when it comes to the Adelaide Football Club wanting the best preparation for an AFL premiership.

Yep this all needs to be revisited. What if the Eagles reserves were not in the finals - where would they play this week?. They wouldn't - they would be training like everyone else. Still, if Hargraves is out for North then send back Perrie at least he will be playing league football and has qualified under the CURRENT rules. He surely needs a run too! We all may as well exploit this stupid situation.

We all believe they (AFL clubs, SANFL) hold our competition in contempt at times - are we really that surprised that they will forsake any sense of fairness in the reserves competition to give the Crows the best preparation for their finals campaign? I can hear them now... "It's only the reserves competition, no one really cares do they?"

I am disappointed, but not surprised.
