EAGLES KICK AN ALL-TIME RECORD SCORE
As he entered the ground, he gazed around Drummoyne Oval to see the significant changes going on at the complex. A new grandstand and improved spectator facilities were being built, new powerful lighting is scheduled to soon be started and there was evidence of construction work everywhere. He had been to this picturesque ground on the Harbour five times since he joined the Eagles in 2004 for his first senior game, and today he was playing his 100th.
He wondered whether the extensive recruiting drive the Balmain Dockers had undertaken in the off-season would reflect the improvements off the field, but sadly, as he would find out three hours later, that was not to be the case. He proudly led his team onto the ground to recognise his milestone, but instead of taking up his familiar position of centre halfback, Glenn Garner had slotted him into full forward to replace the suspended Peter Dugmore.
The East Coast Eagles travelled out to Olds Park to take on the St. George Dragons for round 2 of the Sydney AFL 2010.
A commanding third quarter by the Magpies sees them take control of the game - Wests 14.10.94 Eagles 7.4.46
