Elliot Yeo, sidelined due to injury, emphasized the need for the West Coast Eagles to “get urgent” in addressing their ongoing struggles after a heavy defeat to Carlton, which left young defender Brady Hough in tears. Yeo acknowledged the challenge of maintaining motivation amid mounting losses and highlighted the team’s record-low contested possessions as a critical issue. He urged for a collective effort to improve, suggesting that while experienced players should not be solely relied upon, integrating younger talent is essential for the team’s future success.
