re: Eddie, been going ok but looking forward we need him to be nurturing an apprentice like he did at the Crows with Cameron.
Owies is a different type of player as is Fisher IMO and I'd like to see Eddie with a permanent apprentice like Durdin in the team who he can train up and fast track in the art of reading the play and creating for others...its the latter bit that makes Eddie so good IMO.The little tap ons, kicks around the corner when under pressure that find a man and knowing when to zig and not zag when you have a stoppage. A lot of it is natural talent like Cameron has anyway but Durdin has the raw tools with pace and nice kicking ability but just needs Eddie to teach him some smarts before Eddie gives it away.

Eddie is all flair and party tricks, Owies is a solid contributor who is dependable. Not flashy, wont kick a bags of goal but will kick truly more often than not when he gets an opportunity. He can learn plenty from Eddie, as can Fish and Fog (although I think Fog could be a decent mid).
