With some of the biggest commercial partnership alignments with some of the biggest names in Canterbury; the Eagles look like a different outfit for 2019. Head coach Adem Manderovic & President Ricky Van Olphen have clearly put in considerable ground work... with additional support from Cert Trust... the Eagles look to have a new look unveiled this season to bring in a new era....

Stepping down from the pressures of captain Clinton Williams looks like a new man and will be making some big impressions for the 2019 season..

After playing on each other in the midfield during the Gaelic football season Adem Manderovic was able to convince Patrick J Smith the Eagles required him, and his ex county star experience at the Eagles nest. Paddy having played 5 seasons in division 1 SNF at powerhouse Mordialloc, will be a great acquisition.
Being a NZ falcons squad member, Dean Smith also sort out ex VFL listed player coach adem manderovic for some game development advice which turned into Dean Smith also becoming an Eagle for season 2019, Deans sheer running speed and possession count will be a great attribute at the eagles crossing from cross town rival the Christchurch bulldogs...To be further bolstered by the homecoming of star outside runner Josh Robles-McGill. Josh’s time in Australia went from strength to strength playing throughout the midfield, forwards and all running positions for Club Blacktown Western Magic in the platinum division of Western Sydney, this saw Josh’s selection for the South Pacific side.. which Josh looks to bring this experience back with him to the Eagles!.

the eagles look like they have done their homework off the pitch to create the culture....
.
Although no new coaches will join the Eagles nest, coach Manderovic looks to reap the reward of working with his young eagles side for the past two seasons..

The Eagles for the first season ever have had 17 on the track and have been training at Nga Puna Wai Sports Hub, on Thursday’s from 5:45pm

The eagles look to be this seasons dark horse..
