If the Eagles had a go I’d be interested to see how he’d perform.
The Eagles have Waterman and Shanahan as locks. Then a whole heap of guys that are somewhat still speculative like Archer Reid, Jack Williams, and CDT as a fwd/ruck will take time.
Wouldn’t be the most stupid acquisition for them. Freo are pretty set.
Perhaps but when you’ve already upended your life once for nothing but physio rehab and surgery then I guess just for his sake a WA club (the Eagles) make some sense on a short term deal with minimal hassle.
It just didn’t make any sense that he recovers ready for big pre season and then fkn delisted, especially with how ■■■■ full our forward line was and still is.
He’s not the sort of player that we need. He’s similar to McMahon, who I think is already surplus to requirements. If he was like May (more power forward than lead-up type), he would fit our list profile better.
We kept Hunter over VOSS
then Hunter got injured in the preseason, and that was all she wrote.
He also had a setback (back surgery), so maybe hadn’t fully recovered before delisted.
Devastating news for the young man. Of talent he has plenty, but his body is not up to the rigours of the game. Full speed ahead for your recovery. He would have been a regular if not for his misfortune.
