Pictured: Mid West Representatives at the State Country Championships
1. Zac Fitgerald, here in action for Central Zone in 2015. Returned home to Central Eyre this year and making a huge impact, leading into this Carnival, Zac has 42 goals from eight matches this season, often playing in the midfield.
2. Jake Bruce. Good to see Jake back in EP Colours after two years of injury issues. Speed to burn and athletic. Getting back to his very best form in club games and instrumental in the 'dogs 2015 Grand Final win.
3. Jay Williams, here at Mortlock 2016. Jay represented SA Country earlier in the year and thrives playing higher level football, enjoyed a wonderful 2015 State Carnival at Port Augusta. Not only a great player, but an excellent team man too.
4. Scott Feltus, needs no introductions, has been one of Eyre Peninsula's finest ever. Now days from the bench assistant coaching.
5. Craig Sampson. Received life membership this year at the Mortlock Shield for his exceptional service to football, which includes long time representation as a trainer for Eyre Peninsula. Highly credentialled.
