Eagles axe trio
October 31st 2006 03:38
West Coast has finalised their list ahead of next month's National Draft with Travis Gaspar, Damien Adkins and Brad Smith all searching for a new club after failing to make the cut.
Gaspar was plagued by a series of foot injuries which restricted him to a meagre 28 games after being taken at pick No.14 by the Eagles in 1999.
Adkins played 32 games for West Coast after crossing over from Collingwood at the end of 2002, but failed to add to that tally this season after breaking his leg early this year.
While Smith can count himself unlucky after suffering consecutive knee injuries which prevented him from making his AFL debut after being picked up with selection No. 54 in the 2004 National Draft.
Rookies Steven Armstrong and Matt Priddis have been elevated to the senior list, while fellow rookies Michael Embley, Ben Sharp, Ashley Thornton and Beau Wilkes will not be retained next season.
