Is it right that these three are playing at the Eagles alongside a strong import & the usual core?
If so, that's a nice looking team
Southern had them on toast last night then a play here and a play there it was over. Johns hurting his ankle and trying to play through didn't help. Neither did running the same inbound play twice in a row which Doyle read easily which caused the turnover with 0.14 on the clock. What it did show (compared to the South Adelaide cake walk), when Johnson has to play against an equally athletic big (Mays) he was nowhere near as dominant. Eagles very beatable because their bench is very poor.
eagles had more scoring off the bench then southern
Bench quality does no just equal scoring! The game showed Eagles against finals quality opponent will not just stroll too the title. A bit of resistance and at times DJ went back to his "couldn't give a stuff sulking best". Doyle was the difference in this game.
Well played. I knew they were missing someone. Couldn't work out who.
A play here and there was the reason behind a 28-12 last quarter apparently
A play here and a play there makes it 24-16 and southern win. Don't troll all your life spud
Imagine being called a spud by a Scumthern supporter.
Surprised you didn't just boo at me, seems to be about the height intelligence from one of the gold crew or whatever garbage you call yourself. Bet your nine kids are proud of you
I just went to the game as a basketball fan. Don't get ahead of yourself that your inflammatory trolling got a rise out of me. For Premier League it was a nice game. The reality is after the hysteria from the South game where DJ looked like a god, he was far more mortal (thus so are Forestville) against a decent team. Sorry I don’t have 9 kids or I didnt boo you. My apologies

I guess they'll take a "mortal" DJ with 26 points and 10 boards even if he was in slow motion for the first half. Doyle was the difference down the stretch at both ends. It was a good game and really was just a few plays that made the difference. Tigers were 8 up with 3 minutes left but missed shots and turnovers cost them. Should make a for a great finals series.
and you think the chairman would get involved with these trival manners?
