Season 2022 Player Movements

[RB]

He was a handy player in the '93 premiership year for the Eagles. Probably not quite a star though.

Shane's only claim to fame is being Port's first goalscorer in an AFL game in 1997.

Good trivia that

[TDJ44]

Hopefully we might still get a couple more recruits we are going to need them .

We have some interstate lads training with us at the moment.

That's good, are they any chance of signing?
What happened with the medium sized defender from NSW,has he signed?

Woodville-West Torrens coach Jade Sheedy says the club will have to look internally for replacements should it lose star duo Jack Hayes and James Tsitas to the AFL.

Jack Oatey Medallist Hayes and Magarey Medallist Tsitas have been invited by St Kilda and Gold Coast respectively to train over summer in the hope of securing a list spot.

While their departures would be a significant blow to the back-to-back SANFL premiers, Sheedy said the club took great pride in its players being considered for the next level.

“They’re two of the best players at the footy club but we understand that everyone who plays in our program wants to play AFL footy and that’s why most play SANFL,” Sheedy said.

“I’m just really happy for two guys that have shown they deserve a chance at the next level.

“We probably won’t find out if either of them are on a list until the end of January, which makes it hard to get someone else in to replace them … it will probably have to come internally.

“But that’s OK, we feel the depth at our footy club is good enough to be somewhere around the mark next year.”

AFL clubs with list vacancies can sign players in the pre-season supplemental selection period between January 10 and March 9.

St Kilda has two list spots available while Gold Coast has one.

Sheedy believed both players would be capable at the next level.

Utility Hayes was best on ground in the Eagles’ grand final victory over Glenelg this season along with captaining the SANFL state side and finishing third in the Magarey Medal.

Tsitas was the joint winner of the league’s best and fairest – alongside South’s Bryce Gibbs – and averaged 28 disposals per game in an outstanding campaign.

“Often it can come down to opportunity and there’s a lot of players in the SANFL who could potentially carve a career out at AFL level if given the opportunity,” Sheedy said.


“These two are no different. If they get an opportunity I know they’ll put everything into it.

“Their best is good enough to hold their own at the next level.”

Should Hayes be handed an AFL opportunity, the Eagles would likely lean on recruit Connor Ballenden to help fill the void.

The 200cm key forward signed at the club last month after he was delisted by Brisbane, where he played three AFL games and won the Lions’ VFL best and fairest this season.

Sheedy believed the additions of Ballenden, returning midfielder Jarred Allmond (North Adelaide) and defender Mitch Duval (West Adelaide) would give the Eagles enough firepower in their bid for a third-straight flag.

Not sure if it has already been reported but Sam Breuer, son of former WWT Eagle star (and ex Geelong/Power) Shane Breuer, has signed for the Adelaide Crows Reserves.

Star, really?

Mmm, yeah, probably a bit of stretch.

Breuer certainly didn't have a lager enough profile, and was probably picked too low in the draught, although did get up to some post-season antics in Barley. His lad can play a bottler, though.

I think there's a Y in the middle of Shane, as well. Not sure why.

[DOC]

Not tall enough. Quite stout.

Geez you were carton them out then, you caught us all on the hops. I know we’re probably the yeast of their problems but no doubt we’ll get told to can it by an Eagle who’s bitter.

[DOC]

You seem upset Spargo. What ales you?

[Magellan]

Given where his career ended up, I'd say he's more of a porter. Also, IIRC he was an outcider when it came to getting the pils.

Very different to another former WWT player in Nathan Bock. Although hailing from that side of town, you wouldn't say either was a West End Super-star - then again, both were regarded as very good Exports. Good to see that neither Eagle Blue over the limit when driving.

[Magellan]

Probably a bit bored given we're in the footy off-saison, pour fellow. I imagine he's pin(t)ing for 2022 to start schooner rather than later.

[DOC]

Like us, he will have to grin and beer it.

[am Bays]

Hope he doesnt butcher his chances, he's pint like in stature but he can run like a pony! Schooner or later he'll make it.

Do you mean he could be a shandy player?

Yes. Apparently plays a lot like number 3 for the West Coast, but with an effervescent personality. If the Power recruit him he'll be a portergaff.

He was a Stubby little fellow always on hand to Echo club sentiment

Double points for using *echo.

Pot luck where he ends up, though.

Still, he's a very fit unit despite having a few excess kegs, always known for having a six-pack.

He's staying put, doesn't want to "play out there"
