WEST Coast recruit Damien Cavka has made it his mission to shadow Brownlow medallist Matt Priddis and Eagles vice captain Scott Selwood during his first AFL pre-season.

The four Eagles recruits from last weeks national draft Liam Duggan, Tom Lamb, Jackson Nelson and Cavka were unveiled at Patersons Stadium on Tuesday.

The 184cm Calder Cannons midfielder says he is trying to replicate the habits of Priddis and Selwood, who he is currently staying with, without trying to invade their space.

I'm trying not to be too annoying Cavka said.

Im watching what they do, and trying to replicate what they do to a tee.

They are a couple of people that arent too bad to look up to and follow in their footsteps, which is what I am trying to do.

Lamb, a 193cm half forward, is living with Josh Kennedy and is hoping to replicate the deeds of St Kilda star Nick Riewoldt.

I suppose youve got to set your standards high if you want to be an elite player,Lamb said.
