Midfielders Billy Jack and Jordan Harris alongside Sam Bouwman and Tom Chugg, who show their skills at opposite poles of Morven Park, have maintained their faith in the Eagles' system under fresh co-coaches Alex Payne and Jack Maher.
Returning to the club after only playing three games in the 2017 season, 29-year old Jack enhanced his reputation as a midfield bull this year, picking up the Eagles' best and fairest along the way.

As Jack's 2019 took him to new heights, former Launceston star Harris forged through an injury-riddled season, injuring his knee in round 14 before returning in the Eagles' semi-final loss to St Pats.
West Coburg recruit Bouwman led the Eagles' goal-kicking in his first season at the club, providing both speed and leap as well as reliable hands to bring down the ball.
Another reliable and much-loved member of the side, Chugg was at his trademark peak throughout the year, providing run, carry and skillful football from the half-back flank.
