Eagles can benefit from the past two difficult years, according to West Coast coach Adam Simpson.
The 2023 season, in which the Eagles won just three games and won the wooden spoon for just the second time in franchise history, was characterized as a “season of growth” by West Coast coach Adam Simpson.
At West Coast’s training camp in the seaside town of Dunsborough, Sheed was limited to signing autographs and was placed on the injured list alongside recently drafted forward Archer Reid (knee). Since the once-proud team has only won five games in the last two seasons, the Eagles’ injury list has been the worst in the AFL.
In a statement released by the Eagles on Tuesday, it was stated that “both injuries will require further assessment and as part of their management Sheed will wear a moon boot while Reid will don a brace.” “The club will release further details as it becomes available.”
