West Coast Eagles Head of Development Gavin Bell’s thoughts on East Perth’s loss to Peel Thunder:

"We started the game quite well actually, unfortunately we weren't able to get our ball movement going," he said.

"Peel really stayed in the game, for the full four quarters and over ran us.

"We've got some work to do with our ball movement and our skills.

"We'll continue to work on that during the week and look to bounce back against the Demons this Saturday."

Brant Colledge

"Brant continues to rack up the numbers in the middle. He's been strong over the footy and his ball use is continuing to evolve and improve. He's also hitting the scoreboard which has been fantastic so his challenge is to maintain his work rate and continue to put his hand up for AFL selection."

Tom Barrass

"Really impressive debut by Tom. Playing down back, they were under siege at times, there's no doubt about it, from the way Peel brought the footy in. Tom's marking and ball use was actually a highlight of his game. The challenge for Tom going forward is to bring that consistency with his effort and preparation as he forges his career in the WAFL."

Fraser McInnes and Callum Sinclair

"Both Sincs and Frase were able to show that they didn't look out of place down back. Obviously we're having a look at that due to our current injury status in our AFL side, to see if one of those guys is someone we can go to if and when required at AFL level. Both acquitted themselves well, both brought a great attitude to a new role. Pretty pleased with what we saw."
