The step up from Colts to WAFL seniors proved to be a big hurdle for Luke Foley in his first listed season, halving his disposal count to 12. Sitting on the reserves bench for a club that doesn't run mids off the bench means Foley is just about last a very long queue.
Foley loses his grip
The step up from Colts to WAFL seniors proved to be a big hurdle for Luke Foley in his first listed season, halving his disposal count to 12. Sitting on the reserves bench for a club that doesn't run mids off the bench means Foley is just about last a very long queue.
Foley has best boy's grip
In three years at WAFL Colts level, Luke Foley has lifted his disposal average from 12 to 17 then 25 despite a late-season quadricep injury that put him out for six weeks, and now finds himself on the West Coast list after being overlooked in his draft year. That injury history will probably mean Foley starts slowly as an Eagle, with a few others on the list ahead of him in a long queue for not many midfield spots in a team coming off a flag. If he gets picked later in the season, have a look at his WAFL form to gauge his startability.
