THE young Eagles found their football boots and gave Harvey Brunswick Lions a football lesson away from home at Leschenault on Saturday.
In an important game for their season as the year 7 side produced a quality game which will give them confidence going forward.
Dannye Jones was captain for the day and showed that this role is an honour for every young footballer, showing impressive leadership skills before bounce down and throughout the game.
Dylan Weighell played an outstanding game and was one of Collies best, with great support from Jack Spencer, Bailey Edwards and Ethan Harrison-Brown.
Kieran Escott was all class again as he delivered the ball with precision to the forward line allowing Eagles forwards Rory Bebbington and Cain Kelly to capitalise on his delivery.
James Sinclair attacked the ball well and Sam Salmeri stood tall across the back line with a fine display of marking, spoiling and clearing kicks to ensure his Harvey Brunswick opponents were well beaten in every quarter.
Kalen Han was impressive, rotating through the midfield with Austin Kent - who showed courage to play through considerable discomfort caused by a hand injury.
The hard work of Jaxen Cooper and Rory Atherton enabled them to dominate the Ruck position and Cooper then topped off his efforts by kicking a fantastic goal while resting in the forward line.
Liam Shepherd had a birthday on and off the field playing a versatile game and accumulating many possessions to ensure Collie ran out convincing winners. The team is on the road again next week travelling to Ocean Forest Oval to take on the mighty Dalyellup White line-up.
