Oh What A Knight!!!

Riley Knight Takes Out The 2022 Eagles Club Champion

In a spectacular night at the National Wine Centre, the entire Eagles family came together to close the book on season 2022 and celebrate our performances in the Men’s League & Reserves, Women’s League & Development, and Wheelchair League competitions.

Riley Knight won his first Perce Johns Medal as Eagles Club Champion, capping off a fantastic return to the Club last year, with a Premiership in 2021 and now our highest individual Club honour in 2022. Riley also took home the Jamie Tape Medal for Sacrificial Acts, an award close to all our hearts.

Sophie Zuill won top honours in our SANFLW Best & Fairest, just edging out Annie Falkenberg by 2 votes.

We also farewelled Jarrad Redden and Jarred Allmond after great services to our Football Club.

Congratulations to all award winners listed below, including our Under 18’s & Under 16’s who celebrated their season’s last weekend.
